Tucked away

I have this habit of tucking things away.  As storage solutions go, it's not always great because I end up wondering for months at a time where something that I once designated "precious" is tucked away.
But every once in a while, I end up stumbling on something that has been tucked away for a long time that I have completely forgotten about, and it is so great to see it in plain sight and hold it in my hands again after its months or years of it being hidden. Sometimes those treasures get re-incorporated with all the untucked away stuff, but other times they get ushered back into a darkened handbag or in a drawer or box of other treasures once again.
What have you got tucked away?

It is so FUNNY." And yes, I almost did pee myself, but I also cried through almost the entire last half of the movie.  I did not laugh so hard I cried, I just plain sobbed. I felt really sad watching the story of two friends come to terms with how their friendship was changing.  I was really surprised by my reaction after all the hype about how hilarious the movie was, but I knew why.  The brilliance of this movie was how life can be so hilarious and painful at the same time.    Yesterday, I was on a social networking site and one of the people I follow mentioned that she cried "proper tears" upon reading a story about a woman's tragic childhoo
