A Public Confession

I admit it. I stole something.

Does it count when you don't mean to steal?

When I was in Israel, Molly and I got a cab, and the driver was quite mean. After a while, he kicked us out, and he tried to drive off with our luggage in the trunk. I grabbed everything out of the trunk, and in my hurry I grabbed a hoodie that did not belong to us. In my defense, it was the color of Molly's jacket, and I was trying to get everything out in less than five seconds.

Anyway, I ran after him to give it back, but he was gone. Imagine if he had left with our stuff, how fast he would've made off with it.

So when I got back to Alex, I gave it to my landlady to give to an Egyptian version of Goodwill. Does that make it better?
