I finished writing Sushi and Suspicions and turned it in! To celebrate, I ate my favorite peach jelly from Minamoto Kichoan ! I was a bit surprised to realize at the end of the book that there wasn’t as much romance as in some of my other books, maybe because there were a lot of characters in this book compared to other romantic suspense novels I’ve written. Sushi and Suspicions will be releasing in June in the multi-author box set Summer Suspicions . Even though it’s a box set, each Christian Romantic Suspense novel in it is a full book, so it’s a great deal! Preorder Summer Suspicions for only 99 cents!
Captain's Log, Supplemental
So, you all know I can be a dingbat, right? (No comments from you, Captain Caffeine!)
So I went to get gas a couple days ago. I was impressed I didn’t cause an explosion or something like that. But somewhere in between the pump and ... oh, yesterday around seven p.m., I lost my credit card.
I cannot believe I lost my card. I guess it says something about me that I use it so often, I notice it missing a bare 24 hours after I last used it.
I think it’s somewhere in my car, but I’ve searched and can’t find it. I also checked online and there’s no strange charges on it, so I don’t think it’s stolen, but we called and canceled the card anyway.
What is it about losing a credit card that makes me feel like such a dummy? Like my husband can’t trust me out of the house anymore or something stupid like that.
How about you? Have you lost a credit card or had it stolen?

So have you found it yet?
...and a couple months later, while cleaning out my closet, I felt something in very back corner... yep. It was my wallet.
I felt like an idiot.
Never any trouble came of any of these. But recently my husband's main credit card was compromised because of a website being hacked, and I noticed fraudulent charges on our bill. No fun dealing with police reports and having to watch things like a hawk.
And yes, I misplace my own card occasionally (usually putting into a pocket instead of back into my wallet) and freak out until I re-locate it. So sorry that you have to deal with this--it's definitely no fun! ;p
You are not alone as you can see from the many comments which means I must be in good company too. I have lost my card a few well perhaps many times but it always appears due to panic induced searching. One time I was at Target and I swiped my card and took my stuff and walked all the way to my car. A man approuched me asking me to stop. I have to confess at the time I wished I had taken some sort of self defense class because every Without A Trace segment flashed though my mind. But He was a good samaritian and was bringing me my card.
We haven't found the card (yet) but we canceled it anyway. What a pain! Now I have to go through and figure out which bills were being paid by automatic charge to my card! Argh!

For once we were glad our bank balance was low. :D
