contents may vary

snapped a random picture of my "things that belong nowhere else" drawer this morning and decided to chronicle some of its contents. they're not very exciting. also, i have a lot of random crap. just wait until i decipher my corkboard strip...

1. dark chocolate/caramel ghirardelli square, since consumed by office-mate kate in fit of afternoon chocolate craving
2. floppy disk, last used in 2005
3. broken hairband, since thrown out; bobby pin for emergency door unlockings or hair disasters
4. an earring, a screw, and an unclaimed, random bracelet found in a theater after a performance
5. giant pink paperclips
6. tiny post-its, most often adhered to the back of my cell phone to remind me of early morning meetings or grocery needs [i.e. today's reads 'tea']
7. key that unlocks the file cabinet built into my desk [note: probably unwise to keep said key in said desk, as desk can be locked from the outside without use of key]
8. four pens from unknown vendor; they have never been used [by me]
   
9. someone's watch, another treasure likely found during post-performance clean-up
10. "gold" and orange bead necklace [broke during work event in 2007]
11. post-it note with quote, which reads, "if we want to keep this love we've found, we've got to focus on tomorrow instead of right now" [unknown origin, but probably from a song]
12. PROFESSIONAL sharpie; yes, i have a degree in permanent marker usage
13. patriotic nail file
14. half-eaten milk chocolate/caramel bar, purchased by my sister/brother-in-law
15. x-acto knife; press clippings and intruders beware
