Digging in the Mausifiles...

[msfledermaus]

Today I've been rooting around in my old boxes, looking for an ancient laptop I want to give to the tallest guy I know... I *know* I've got the damn thing, but it's playing a really successful game of Hide and Seek.

At least I'm finding lots of stuff I've missed. Favorite books, old photos, 'zines, drawings. I found a stack of old watercolor paintings of mine. Tons of comics. Old postcards from Furrin' lands. Art supplies. A book of knitting stitches I picked up years ago before I could knit. But alas, alackaday and Goddammitallanyway...no ancient laptop. Maybe I already gave it to somebody and forgot I did it.
If that's so, maybe I can talk to my IS guy at work and see if he has anything old he's willing to unload.

I did feel good about throwing away about 3 boxes worth of stuff I don't need anymore. But that damn missing laptop is taunting meeee...
I'm sure it's waiting for me to stop looking for it and then will pop up, bold as brass...

*whistles and pretends not to be looking*
la la laaaaaa....






*peek*

Nothing. Shit.

It's frustrating, isn't it, when you absolutely KNOW you have something and it's hiding from you...

Hope you find that hidin' laptop SOON, Ms Maus!!

I finally found the mutha...underneath an old scanner I've got...typical for it to hide under allthe other electronics:P

(((((((((((Honey))))))))))

How are you these days? I haven't been catching up like I should...

Glad you found it - gets frustrating when they hide in plain sight (well, kind of, anyway) doesn't it?

I'm doing well - maybe I'll give you a call one of these nights...I think I still have your #.

Take care! (((Ms Maus)))

It's been months since I lost a drawer from a little two-drawer box holding tapes. I've had several "digging through stuff" sessions and I still haven't found it. I may have to pack up and move before I find it.

I know that feeling...I found a box fulla books i thought I'd lost for years and years...

It's gonna be a nightmare when I actually start packing.
