Crazyness. Or a seven year lesson in why my brother should not touch my things

[pinksonia]

So back in October (or was it late September) of 2003 I left to study abroad at the University of Sussex.  I had backed all of my favorite CDs and was thus listening to the second tier right up until I left.  I departed with Annie Warbucks in the CD player.  Nine months later, I return to find my CD player has taken up residence in the bathroom (apparently my brother was unable to take a shower without musical entertainment) and my CD nowhere to be found.  Annie Warbucks is not a great show by any stretch of the imagination, but it does contain my favorite love song of all time, It Would Have Been Wonderful, which isn't really a love song at all, and which probably says a lot about my psyche.  I look everywhere for that CD

Anyway, I'm sharing this because this weekend, I went home and there it was sitting on my brother's desk.  I've been looking for the CD for seven years (trust me, if it were available in iTunes or your standard CD store I would have re-purchased it many times over by now) and there it was, just sitting there.  Of course, the second half is all scratched up, but my song survives.  Yay!

I'm glad your cd showed up! :)

Me too. :) I can't imagine where it has been hiding as I've gone through at least one "I have a new ipod - must upload every CD in the house" phase since it was misplaced
