Four tiny pieces of glass that I found in the pocket of my coat after Erin and I totalled her parents' car that slippery December day.
More glass in the form of those little fishtank marbles from Art30.
Pages and pages of copied notes in Icelandic.
24 Lanterns.
The biggest, ugliest button you could ever imagine.
A letter from a mute girl. I have always hoped that the "special horse star girl" part was referring to me.
$2 from the Old Times.
Scorecard from an epic game of dice when we were camping in May. Guess who won.
An odd assortment of patches.
Abiel's song.
So you'll be glad to know I attacked the monster fearlessly - I was throwing things out with wild abandon. The orange garbage bag was bursting at the seams, or it would've been if it had any seams.
And now, the monster has been tamed. A fully functional and productive member of my room.
A noble use of a rainy day if I do say so myself.

My favorite is the VW patch.
wow. that's some fascinating stuff you got in your closet. good times. i hope abiel's song didn't go in that orange bag of yours.
I giggled out loud all down the line. Ah, such whimsy! The four tiny pieces of glass and icelandic notes glimmer me most, with a happy nod to that epic game score, for I remember it well. I raise my mini glass of 11:07 wine in honour of you my sweet, for all the times. Oh all the tim-tims.
Nope, nope, it was the letter from the mute girl that is most extraordinary! Laughy & beautiful in more ways than one.
