<human>: Give me a shortened version of the text

I'm an American who is on a work trip in Abu Dhabi. This morning I got into a cab and noticed the driver was wearing National Dress (robe and head wrap thing, you know). Cool! Super authentic. I ask him if he knows where [my destination] is? No. [Something near my destination]? Stares at me. So I get out this crudely drawn map I have. Do you understand this map? And he asks, "How you get in my car?" Uh, the door... Good thing I decided not to be a wise ass, because this was just some dude, I think he was getting valet... I dipped so quick that I left my notebook in his car...

Shit, well maybe he returned it, or maybe I left it in my *actual* cab and they returned it. Asking the desk turned into a half hour ordeal of me trying to explain the difference between a book of papers and a laptop computer, followed by me being too embarrassed to admit that I am definitely wasting everybody's time.
<bot>: Tried to get kidnapped in a foreign country and failed. Lost a notebook. What brand? No, a paper notebook. So a notebook and papers? This is not a laptop. So a tablet and papers?
