davis_squareHey, Davis Square
I'm probably grasping at straws here, but just in case -
On Friday, UPS allegedly dropped off a package in front of my house on Highland ave, near the corner of Willow and Highland, at 9:57 am. They didn't bother to ring the doorbell. The package is now missing. All that was in it was my great grandmother's mandoline (the musical instrument, not the cooking implement). It has very little monetary value, but great sentimental value, and I am hoping that it will turn up somewhere. If you have any information that might lead to its recovery, or if you found it and would like to return it, no questions asked, please comment or send me a message at my lj name at gmail.com Thank you.
ETA - Package appeared on my porch yesterday, none the worse for wear! The UPS driver rang the bell this morning to deliver another package, and was sort of adorably flustered when I told him that it had come yesterday (he kept saying "Oh man, that's awesome!). He had pretty clearly been upset that it went missing, and had been in contact with the powers that be. He had an assistant that day, and thinks that person may have mis-delivered it. So thanks, mystery good samaritan! And thanks to DSLJ for the mixture of great advice and sympathy :)

Also try Highland Road
