| | Amazing the things I find, especially since I have this habit of never throwing anything out...
For whatever reason, I decided that I needed to transfer some of the songs that I had on cassette tapes to my computer. Now, the problem was that the songs that I wanted were spread across 5 different tapes, which meant that I had do some DEEP digging through my drawers to find them... and I'm glad I did.
In addition to finding about 50 billion decks of cards and my old Stats class notes, I discovered that I still had the old youth group distortion pedal (that I bought roughly 9 years ago and which no one ever remembers even existing, for that matter), which I promptly plugged and discovered that a) it was still functional and b) it's not anywhere near as bad as I originally thought it was. Chalk up another $5 in reclaimed youth group assets (probably what the pedal is worth after all these years of depreciation).
... but the crown jewel of my finds was shoved into the back of one drawer. I have no idea how it got there, but I found a gift card to Banana Republic. I checked the balance online and lo, behold, even after 5-6 years (that's the best I can estimate, b/c I only received these kind of cards as a member of youth staff)... the thing STILL carries the original balance of $75.
Well, well... guess who's going shopping this weekend. |
