marcicatThe weather forecast is calling for it to be Very Hot for the next four or five days, so yesterday I thought to myself, 'I really should find that small fan that I used on my desk last summer; I'm definitely going to want that for work next week.'
(It should perhaps be noted that I am already using a tower fan -- it's too big to pack anywhere, so it's easily accessible. And I know exactly where my *old* small fan is -- in its box on the hall closet shelf -- and could use it at any time. But I really wanted to find the *new* small fan!)
The good news: past!me did indeed include the words "small fan" on the box label for the box that included the small fan. Way to go, past me!
The humorous news: current!me was very, very bad at guessing which of the many boxes might have that label. I finally found it in what was very nearly the last possible box. In fact, it *would* have been the last box, except that the cat was sleeping in front of one of them and I didn't want to disturb her, so I skipped that one. 47 boxes later, the fan has been unearthed and is ready for use!
(Haha remember last summer, when sitting in front of the oscillating fan made me feel like I had motion sickness? Blech, let's cancel the heat wave and eat ice cream instead.)
