Sh*t I Found In The Junk Drawers.

• A Tampax coupon for $1 off - that expired June 2005.
• Raffi - Singable Songs for the Very Young cassette tape. No cover.
• 2 child-don't-put-knives-in-the-outlet safety plug plastic doolallers.
• A paid reciept from a cartoon the pixies father got paid for.
• A "Judical Interim Release Order" against the pixies father - July 2004. (Oh, memories of being terrorized by the one you love.***)
• 2 undeveloped instant cameras.
• 80 kabajillion rubber bands.
  
• A welfare stub from Feb 2005.
• Many "moist toilettes" with Colonel Sanders smiling face.
• Many packets of soy and plum sauce.
• 6 different fairy themed temporary tattoos
• a little black crawly bug. (uuuugh.)
• The plastic lid of a toddler sippy cup.
• 3 books of cheques with my former-married name on them.
• 26 metal curtain hooks.
• A handful of penny and nickle paper rollers.
• Dusty candles.
• Loose and random batteries.
• 4 rubber Christmas placemats that I used to be SO proud of.
  
• So. Much. More. Crap.
