"The Mission"

Chris and I just spent the evening as stealthy spies or stalkers in "Operation Hot Tamale".  Chris' new North Face jacket had been missing for 24 hours, we examined all the possibilities of where it could be, did he leave it on the job site, did he leave the truck unlocked, did he leave it in vernal, where was the North Face.  Chris was starting to get mad, and for those of you who know Chris, it is hard to make him mad, believe me, I have tried.  So, after some investigation, and a few leads, we took off to a bon fire up Provo Canyon.  We continued up the canyon after the bon fire, and did some more investigating.  Looked at some registration tags, peeked inside cars, nothing, no North Face.  I have done some spying in my day, on roommates when they were with boyfriends, on church roofs trying to capture the doorstep scene on camera, Farrah, I have done my share of spying.  So, I asked Chris to let me try, so I snuck around the apartments for a bit, looked in some windows, and tried to figure out where the North Face was.  Once again, no North Face.  So, we loaded up in the car, and started to head home.  I asked Chris if we could go back one more time, and let me shine my headlamp in the windows.  Don't worry, everyone was home, so I snooped around, but once again nothing.  I saw someone inside moving around, and I saw them exit the building, and as I pranced through the parking lot, low and freaking behold, there was his North Face, on someone.  I sort of panicked, and ran to the street where Chris was in the get away car, I was yelling, " I found it, I found it".  So, then we followed them, and they pulled into the grocery store, and Chris saw with his very own beady eyes, his beloved North Face.  He jumped out of the car, and approached the suspects, and said, "I need my jacket back", they were confused, and so he said it again, "I need my jacket".  Then he returned to the car, with North Face in hand.  It was so much fun, and we laughed all the way home, and thought to ourselves how old are we? Good times, "Operation Hot Tamale", successful!
