Slob Central


I just had the privilege of rummaging through the box into which Larry swept all the junk off our computer desk (I was looking for my scrapbooking tape runner - David needed it for a paper biplane he's creating). I never found the tape; but here's a partial list (and I can't emphasize the word "partial" enough here) of what I did find, in case any of you doubted my description of Larry and I as a couple of disorganized slobs.

  1. My missing knitting book (and yes, I know I said last week it wasn't in there; apparently, it was hiding)
  2. Assorted sticky notes with phone numbers scribbled on them
  3. One (large) electric stove burner drip pan (really)
  4. 4 (yes, 4) expired and/or broken cellphones
  5. One 10-dollar LLBean gift card (cool!)
  6. New-in-box computer speakers (?)
  7. 6 pens
  8. 1 paintbrush (new)
  9. 1 MP3 player that we are still trying to figure out how to use
  10. Half a bag of cough drops (Ricola)
  11. 30 dollars (finders, keepers!)
  12. An 8-month-old local newspaper
  13. Stray playing cards
  14. One golf ball
  15. Various and sundry CD-roms
  16. And much, much more!

You know, I'm tempted to turn this into a giveaway...
