Yesterday I lost one of my credit cards. I discovered its when I paid for last night's delicious dinner. Fortunately I had another card in my wallet to pay for dinner. Once back at the room I searched my other pockets and my shopping tote bag. It was nowhere to be found.
I'm pretty sure I left it behind at the tequila shop where I enjoyed an awesome free tequila tasting. I went to pay with one card for the bottle of tequila I bought, realized it wasn't the one I wanted to put the charge on, gave the shopkeeper another, and must've forgotten to tuck the first one back in my wallet.
Once I determined the card wasn't among my things I visited the issuer's website to lock it against further charges. There was no fraud on there yet. Possibly the shopkeeper found it and tucked it in the till for safe keeper, or I dropped it on the ground and nobody saw it.
This morning I tried calling the tequila shop to see if they had the card. Nobody answered, and the call went to a voicemail with a Spanish recording so rapid I couldn't be sure whom I called. Plus, there really isn't time today to go get it. I'll leave the card locked and wait another day or two to see if it pops up somewhere in my things.
Losing track of this card does piss me off even though the consequences will be minimal. It pisses me off partly because it's the second thing I've lost this trip. On Saturday morning on the way out here, I lost my sunglasses in the Uber ride to SFO airport. Hawk has thankfully lent me hers the past few days so I don't have to pay inflated prices for sunglasses at the tourist-trap shops around here— or walk around unable to see in the bright sun.
