Items I Found In My Desk While Looking For My Birth Certificate
1. A two-player starter set for the Harry Potter TCG. I bought this at a game store in Seattle a couple years back when I was visiting the boys. I’ve still never played the game, although I think I read the instructions almost immediately. Maybe with my recent Pokémon and Magic dorkery, though, now’s the time.
2. A 7-inch single containing Temple of Love by the Sisters of Mercy. Given to me years ago by a friend, and I have no idea how it ended up in my desk.
3. Three separate unidentified email addresses on, respectively, the back of a receipt, the back of an envelope, and the back of a phone bill that isn’t mine. I’m tempted to email these people and ask how they know me, but they probably wouldn’t remember either.
4. A bunch of super-awesome Diesel Sweeties stickers sent by my interweb ex-husband.
5. My birth certificate!
