Cleaning Out the Karma Closet

[tzikeh]

I've been on the tiniest of a Karmic upswing these past three months, after two years of being tied to Karma's whipping post. But I still don't feel that I have a balanced budget, because (just like most of us, I think), I can flake on promises, or I write something down on the back of an envelope that I wind up throwing away thanks to the stupids, or I say "yeah, sure!" on the phone and whatever it was that I agreed to do promptly leaves my brain.

So.

Did I promise you something? If so, please email me at tzikeh@thechicagoloop.net with whatever it was that I promised you in the subject line. No matter how long ago it was that I promised, I encourage you to write me. Feel free to berate me in the body of the message.

CONVERSELY:

Did I lend you something? If so, can you email me and remind me what it is that you still have? Seriously, I've probably forgotten, but I will want it back at some point. (Next year, I'm going to keep a much better list of those things in my Treo so I always know where my stuff is.)

Thanks you, guys. Many of you have been better to me than I deserve this year, and it's been moving to realize that I do have some very strong friendships.

But I still want my shit back.

I have your Every Great Chess Player Was Once a Beginner. It's sitting quietly on my bookshelf. :) I also have someone's copy of House of Leaves, but I don't remember whether it's yours or Snoo's.

Well, if it will help your karma...

I think you still have that Remington Steele zine you were going to send back to me like three years ago.

I think House of Leaves must be Snoo's - and she's in L.A. :(

But I totally forgot about my chess book! Do you think you and hub will still be interested in reading it? I'm not in a hurry to get it back; I'm just glad to know you have it!

I... think I do. That's sad. Lemme find it and send it back.

Wow.
