One of the weirdiddlies of moving is sudden total recall loss of basic home office supplies. Somewhere over the rainbow in some totally unrelated box there's a pot of gold with post-it notes, pushpins, highlighters, and a small rubber goat. In my desk drawer I find three screwdrivers, one Phillips, two flatheads, but no pencils. Whoa! Distraction Will Robinson in the office/school supply aisle between seasonal/pet and Charmin/picnic paper goods by these spiral paper clips. I might have to pierce my nose just to wear one!

And then I spot the Trivial Pursuit neon triangle sticky notes:

The art teacher possibilities are endless, as are the decompression stress relief options. Probably Obamacare should cover this mental health purchase.
