Allow me to introduce

Well, I know this will sound very weird. I replied to a kijiji ad for a free dog. The person who was giving him away said I was second in line and that if the people who were wanting him didn't come and pick him up by 10AM, I could come and take a look.

10AM came and went. A day or two later another ad was posted for a dog that was 2 years old, a wauzer, etc etc for $400. I emailed and wasn't expecting to hear back (hard to find a dog seemingly). They emailed and when I went the woman seemed nervous and a bit emotional. It rang bells but I wasn't exactly sure why. She said that they'd had the dog for 6 months and were moving to a different city and needed to make a choice between their dogs and had decided on the big dog.

I took him and some small voice said "look at him. he looks exactly like the dog in the free ad". It was easy to email this woman who had given him away and ask if she had given away a dog named blah and the original owner was blah (I had the certificates etc). She emailed back with her phone number and to call straight away.

Leave it to me to be the universal bloodhound to suss out someone who totally took me for a ride. I find it funny, to be honest. I will call the lying bitch and give her one chance to make amends. If she does not respond, I'll leave it to the universe to take her to task.

Do you find it as bewildering and almost hysterically funny as I do that the universe shows me this sort of thing?
