bodlonI have just awakened from the most ridiculously irritating dream ever.
My car (which I have had since 2006) had, for some reason, been latched onto by the city as a 'recovered stolen car' story. They kept reporting it in the papers as having been found after two and a half years, and that authorities were celebrating their success in finding it. The twist being that the 'rightful owner' -- or, rather, the random guy they found using an old phone number of mine -- was hostile to the authorities when they kept contacting him to try and tell him that they'd found his missing vehicle.
All the while, no one would listen to me that the whole story was a sham, that it was my car and had been for years, and that I'd really prefer it if the city would stop trying to give it to this random guy who wasn't even me. I'd try to resolve it, think it was blowing over or whatever, and then I'd stumble on a new news article or tweet from a city office about it.
I was afraid to contact the so-called owner to work things out with him for fear he'd decide he was entitled to my vehicle after all.
