The Case of the Missing DVDs or How It All Began

I was home from college this weekend and I decided to try and find my DVD collection. Moving from dorm to dorm, and back and forth from home means the majority of my belongings are scattered. Spread between my current apartment, my room at home, our garage, our attic, our hallway closets.. Any extra space? Probably filled with my stuff. At some point between moving back home in May, and moving to Clemson in August my handy dandy DVD case disappeared. I really want those DVDs. So after checking every other possible location in my house, I finally tackled the space under my bed.
I should probably mention at this point that I am a bit of a hoarder. Not the kind that never throws anything away, trash included, but the type to hold onto every note from school, ever jotted down thought, quote, or poem, every ticket stub from every movie I've ever seen, every quick sketch or doodle, a cute pattern or picture from a magazine... Need I go on? And all of these items are in a collection of cardboard boxes that are currently located under my bed. I want to do something with them. Why not start a blog and post these lovely little gems?
The past two hours of my life have been spent sitting cross legged on my floor going through each of these scraps and reading them. I still haven't found my DVDs, in case you were wondering.
