Post-it note I left in the kitchen for H this afternoon:
Dear H,
Remember how I came home last week with a Tiffany blue calling card from a new acquaintance? Well, I've been invited over to her house for wine this afternoon. If I go missing (aka if I'm not home when you get back from work), please phone the police.
Xoxo,

Addendum: Turns out this note was unnecessary / unhelpful. 1. H never came home from work last night. 2. I had such a nice time at this non-crazy woman's house that I was parked there for hours without even realizing it and was not cut up into a million little pieces and eaten for dinner. 3. I was having so much fun that I missed two calls from H...good thing he never saw my note and hence had no inclination to phone the police.
Addendum Two: The next time I walk to someone's house with a bottle of wine midday, I should probably put it in a bag. What wouldn't have gotten a second glance in Perth, definitely got some stares here. Or maybe people were just staring at me since I decided to dress like it is spring since it's now April, despite the fact that it's currently 32 degrees.
