All Is Lost

"The scientific theory I like best is that the rings of Saturn are composed entirely of lost airline luggage." Mark Russell (1932 - )

I've lost something again. It's something important. Actually, it's the most important thing - information. Somewhere in the house or car is a note that I need, badly. I know it was in my car a week and a half ago. The car went to the shop for a touch up paint job and it was on the seat when I picked it up.

For the life of me, I don't know what the hell happened to it after that. Today, I cleaned out the car, went through several bags, two purses and three piles of paperwork, all to no avail.

Not finding this particular piece of information, which, naturally, is information that I cannot replace (it's not something I can just look up online) will be a serious problem for me. On the upside, I cleaned my car, two purses and went through three piles of paperwork.

I also organized all the receipts found in the car, purses and paperwork. My pile of medical expenses grows weekly. At tax time I will be happy about my current spat of organization, but at the moment I'd rather have that note.

Maybe if I give up hope of ever finding it that damn thing will turn up. Isn't that how it always happens? The lost item turns up in the last place you look, or the day after you needed it. The problem is I need this and I need it NOW. Any help from the universe would be greatly appreciated.
