Not only have I just found the erasers that I spent a sizable part of yesterday searching for, but sitting right next to them was my tablet pen, which has been missing for months, and an extra pair of scissors (which is fabulous, because I'm always losing scissors). (Wow, that sentence was long.) (Parentheses!)
All of a sudden, the world seems like a much nicer place.
Hmm, maybe I should leave the gremlins a treat, in thanks. Do gremlins like milk and cookies, or is that just Santa? I know that typical garden-variety fairies prefer milk with honey, but I don't even know if gremlins are related to them.
Uh-oh, what if it's brownies, not gremlins? Any show of gratitude would be a terrible idea, if that were the case. Now that I think about it, any food left around will attract ants for sure, so never mind that. Besides, I think my folktale-nerdiness is showing.
