TSA left something strange in my luggage.
I just returned from a trip to the east coast. I flew out of LAX. Nothing unusual, standard security procedure. The flight was ordinary, no problems,

I arrive at my friends house, she takes me to the guest room, so I start unpacking. We are talking as I unpack. I am about half way done when between 2 tee shirts I find 2 sunflower seeds still in the shell.

My friend and I figured the TSA guy that went through my luggage probably dropped them out of his shirt pocket. We were both a little disturbed by the thought of this guy going so thoroughly through my luggage that he leaves sunflower seeds between my clothes.

After unpacking I had a little garbage bag that I put the seeds in and threw it away.

Great 10 days, then time to return to Los Angeles. On the last day of my trip I did all my laundry so I would return with clean clothes. I emptied and shook out my suitcase before neatly packing all my clothes.

When I arrived at the airport, again, another uneventful bag check-in.

When I arrived home and started unpacking by luggage, half way down, again between 2 tee shirts there were 2 sunflower seeds.

Now they did not seem to dropped, but placed there. What are chances of this happening twice on the same trip, both legs of the trip. And at different airports.

Again, the second set of seeds were most definitely placed there.

I naturally thought that my friend was playing a prank on me, but nobody had access to my luggage from the time I packed until I handed it over to the TSA.

I called my friend to tell her what a funny joke that was, knowing she didn't touch my bag. She had no idea what I was talking about. She's not really the jokester type.

I have never had sunflower seeds put in my luggage before. I also haven't flown in a couple of years. Does everyone who checks in bags now get sunflower seeds placed in your bag?

Had dinner with a friend last night told him about it, and he thinks maybe that is the way they are going to spread the new plague. He thinks I should take them and have them tested. I think that is absurd, but I think he was serious.

Re: TSA left something strange in my luggage.
the universe is trying to tell you something symbolically. but i have no idea what that is.

maybe that you think you have to make a choice between 2 things soon, but the universe is saying that either way you decide it will turn out the same?

do sunflowers have any special meaning to you whatsoever?

i'm at a loss. this is a very strange story.

Re: TSA left something strange in my luggage.
True story
Yeah, this is the internet, but take it for what it's worth.
Flew from Portland, OR. to Atlanta, and back again a couple of years ago.
After returning to Portland, upon opening my luggage, there was an inspection card inside. TSA found it necessary to open my luggage for some reason.
Nothing was missing, but I got a bedbug infestation afterwards from this.
This was a sealed Pelican case, they're airtight & waterproof!
Fuckin planted bedbugs, I swear! Never had them before or since. (after fumigating the house & washing all linen & clothes)

I remember when I put Judge Ito & the jury in Bruno Maglis; then used a film recorder to make a negative.... I had a lot of fun showing the photo to friends.
