Went to my Dad's house this evening to pick up a couple boxes that had been found with my name on them. They had books I'd lost track of (yay! I thought they were lost!) and some random old stuff probably from a dresser. I suspect a lot of it is literally trash, but there's some neat things, too, like a piece of paper with a song on it that a foreign exchange student my Dad hosted wrote out for me in Japanese.

Poked through the boxes of books getting garage-saled and found a handful I wanted. I never realized my Dad read so many trashy military thrillers.

Best of all: found the pile of old Analog magazines from the 70s! I'm looking forward to finding out what the future looked like 30 years ago...

Any embarrassing old photos?

That was the good part about the scrapbooks in my parents' basement. (Well, that, and the earliest photos I ever took. I need to scan or photograph them--they're surprisingly interesting.)
