ksmithI'm in the midst of sorting through months' worth of receipts and papers. Filing. Prepping for taxes. Just plain decluttering my office so I can work. Hell, so I have a bit of clear desk large enough to set down my coffee cup.
The purge is winding down--I'm down to those last few small stacks that always take longer to sort than the piles that reach your knees. The usual decisions apply--do I really need to keep this? If I do keep it, where in hell do I put it? So, I have pages 2-8 of this very interesting article--where in hell is page 1?
Over the course of this muckenfuss, I found I have misplaced something that I really ought not to have misplaced. I need it on Monday. I am pretty sure that the world won't end if I can't find it, but it would make life easier if I had it in hand now.
I thought it was buried on my messy desk, but it did not turn up over the course of the careful picking-through of the box of stuff removed from said desk. It was too big to have been accidentally tossed over the course of the sorting, although I fear it could have been tossed out during some earlier, less careful cleanup, when I wasn't thinking about how much I needed it. There's an outside chance that I left it at work, and I am debating going in first thing tomorrow morning to see if it's there.
Blasted thing.
