Apropos of Absolutely Nothing

Not at all sure how this is going to work out. I can delete it, right? RIGHT?

Heather Has Asked....

What are the contents of your junk drawer?  Alas, I am anal-retentive and clean it out a lot.  It makes me really anxious when I can't find things.  The one weird thing still in there is the extra yarn I got when I recently bought a cashmere sweater.  I find it odd they'd give me yarn....what am i going to do with it, knit up a hole if I tear it?  And yet I can't throw it away....(head trip from the garment industry....)

 

Ok, if you dumped out your wallet or handbag or backpack on the table, would it be a frightening sight? Are there any interesting things in there?  Latest copies of Vogue and Elle; hair chopsticks, hair clips, hair ornaments, scrunchies (this is embarrassing....I obviously need hair accessory intervention); six different brands of lip gloss (all essentially the same color); a Canadian breast cancer pink ribbon quarter (you rule, Canada!); a copy of Sharon Olds's "The Wellspring".

 

What's under your bed?  Quilts and bedding and table runners and napkins and things my great-grandmother embroidered that I never use but can't bear to throw away and that my sister (who has TONS more storage space than me I might add) won't take.

 

Have you ever performed a defrag on your computer?  Well, yes, but the computer consented to it.  Really.  It was mutual.  So there.

  • Well, I notice a general tendency to take care of your hair...which is good. Are you born with the sun in Leo?
    I do hate those tiny packets of buttons and a thread for a sweater...like I'm going to get that thing and put it on the button and sew it back on...I have about three thousand of them.
    Do I keep them? Damn right I do.


    I could not throw anything out from my greatgrandmother...I have a spoon and two forks from her, that's it, but, I'd never do anything with them.
