Anecdote: Where are my notes?! I was panicking now, because I had a paper due in three hours, and I couldn’t find where I’d put my notes. Were they underneath the pile of papers on my desk? No. I checked in my bag, rummaging through the assorted books and folders stuffed in there, but no sign of them there. I got down on my hands and knees, sweeping my hand beneath the desk, but all that came out was dust, lint, and food scraps. I opened every drawer, and still I couldn’t find them. Finally, I remembered that I’d been going over them in bed last night, so I pulled apart my covers until I found them crumpled up within the tangled sheets. Now I just needed to get started on that paper.
