I did some clearing out of my top nightstand drawer - it hadn't been done for ages. Some of tonight's finds included the program for my junior high spelling bee (kept), a program from a chorus concert freshman year (tossed), some response cards from my Bat Mitzvah (tossed), a picture of me in my mid-1990s glory (baby doll dress and clunky sandals) that I really need to scan, cute pictures of Winnie and Barney and even one of Myshkin, birthday cards from people I don't remember...just so much stuff.

I also found my diary from freshman year of high school a few days ago. I should post some of the cringe-inducing excerpts here sometime. : ) (And there are plenty of them!)
