In my r...Ok, gonna admit it's not just a guy thing. In my room I can see three piles for detritus. I come home from work and dump my pockets on the coffee table or counter. straw wrappers, coin roll outsides, wadded reciepts, random change, all in a pile. However, I do eventually gather them all up once every week or two. I've tried basin like items to use as a pile in basket, but no hope. It used to be worse when I had a two bedroom house. There were probably half a dozen pile places. Now confined to half a dorm room there are just the two places. It does make a great emergency soda fund.Bekahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17495796538020025891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11205826.post-1119926196579729592005-06-27T22:36:00.000-04:002005-06-27T22:36:00.000-04:00LOL!

I even bought Brent a nice leather tray to contain all of his pocket regurgitation (love that!) but it's a hopeless battle. It's okay though . . . once in a while I go through it and clean out the change (I have to tell Brent about the tip thing) and throw away super old pieces of paper. I remember my dad having a drawer full of this kind of stuff and oh how I loved going through it. So maybe our future kids will enjoy going through Brent's pile too. :-) Great post!Sharihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10760819644411162762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11205826.post-1119901348746935362005-06-27T15:42:00.000-04:002005-06-27T15:42:00.000-04:00Amen about homes never going to look like the home...Amen about homes never going to look like the homes in the magazines. I think i've been trying to hard for that, but I will never succeed. You should take all that change to the nearest, well here it would be Kash n'Karry, and you could get those coins transformed into bills through the magic money machine.Shay Dawghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14860336118163767192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11205826.post-1119835686325967142005-06-26T21:28:00.000-04:002005-06-26T21:28:00.000-04:00Great post!

We guys don’t carry around purses and so our pockets get filled with random bits and pieces of our day. I personally like to start each day with clean pockets, hence the pile on my desk.<BR/>(tip) I use my change to buy snacks on long trips.JBT2https://www.blogger.com/profile/16832677293645458576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11205826.post-1119835671017764992005-06-26T21:27:00.000-04:002005-06-26T21:27:00.000-04:00I just have one li'l comment: "detritus" nice word...I just have one li'l comment: "detritus" nice word.<BR/>okay so like claire I have more to say than I thought: brad, I loved the "get some real problems, lady" that just may come in handy some day, if my mind will only be willing to actually remember this perfect phrase and use it at the opportune momentahappywifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08485708353555717338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11205826.post-1119826511892903802005-06-26T18:55:00.000-04:002005-06-26T18:55:00.000-04:00Hi ClaireReally funny blog topic.
