Half a year ago while I was flying alone cross country with my then two year old daughter Lulu, a TSA officer told me to remove my Steven Harrington x Arkitip scarf and put it in a basket to be scanned. I did. And then I walked through security and proceeded to pick up all my stuff. Kid. Boarding passes. Keys. Wallet. Phone. Got it.
It wasn't until I arrived at the Gate that I realized, my favorite scarf was missing. Where had it gone? Backtracking recent events, it was soon clear to me that the TSA agent never put my basket through the x-ray machine; instead placing the basket on top of the conveyer belt metal casing. How do I know? I always watch my belongings travel safely to the other side of security before walking across the metal detectors. And my scarf was never on the conveyer belt. Sad, I boarded my flight and figured the scarf was lost and gone forever.
My pal Trevor is friends with Steven Harrington. Yesterday I recounted how I lost my favorite scarf to him. Trevor pinged Steven and today the scarf magically reappeard at my work. Exactly as I remembered it. It even smelled the same!
THANK YOU, Trevor. And THANK YOU, Steven! I am super happy to add the scarf back into my wardrobe. So happy -- I put it on right away and Trevor snapped the shot above for me. You guys rule. And believe me, the next time someone asks me to take it off, I'm not going to take my eye off of it!
