I’ve been back at work for over a week and I still can’t find my store keys.

I tossed them in the drawer on my last day before my surgery and when I came back two weeks later they were nowhere to be found and everyone I’ve talked to disavows all knowledge of their whereabouts.

The flash drive I use (used) to transport small files to and from work has also gone walkabout.

Lastly, my favorite pen – you know, that special pen that feels just right and writes ever so smoothly – is AWOL.

Nobody will admit to having touched any of these items….. And I really miss that pen.
