There’s a line in the most recent draft of GG3 that says something to the effect of “there are a lot of different kinds of gone.”
I’ve been thinking A LOT about that line today since…
THE CORD THAT GOES FROM MY CAMERA TO MY COMPUTER IS GONE!!!!
I mean gone, gone.
Seriously gone.
As if ninjas came in the night and took it and any traces of it and warned all of my other cords and technical things that if they go to the authorities the ninjas will kill their families…
THAT kind of gone.
I’ve retraced my steps and the last place I remember for sure seeing it was at my office of my dayjob.
The only problem is that since then I have MOVED OUT of my office at my day job.
So I spent all day going through boxes (starting with the most obvious box first and then working my way down), and nothing.
I mean NOTHING.
I even went back to the office in question just to make sure it hadn’t fallen under a desk or behind a filing cabinet or something, but…
Nothing.
So even though I have pictures of my oh-so-adorable new house (that I haven’t moved into yet), I can’t post them.
And I can’t email them to any of my friends and family members who say “email me pictures of your new house!”
And I can’t even study the pictures to decide exactly where I want my furniture to go (because believe me, once the treadmill and TV armoire get into position they will probably be in those exact positions until…well…I can’t think of a force of nature strong enough to move them from those positions. In fact, I should probably just crawl inside the TV armoire in the event of a tornado.)
SO I REALLY NEED TO FIND MY LITTLE CORD!
But it’s gone.
The kind of gone from which, I fear, there is no coming back.
Sigh.
