Can't Stop Thinking About 4 Pennies

January 30th, 2008 at 03:00 pm

I just can't stop thinking about them!

I was at the B&N next to my office the other day on my lunch break, and I was sitting in a chair in front of a window. I noticed 4 pennies on the windowsill in front of the chair next to me, which was empty. Just as I was about to grab them, someone came over and sat in front of them. I thought, well crap, I have to wait until they leave.

But, by the time my lunch break was over and I had to go back to work, the other person was still there (copying recipes from a cookbook she had no intention of buying, by the way). So, I left the 4 pennies behind, and went back to work.

Now, three days later, I am still thinking about them and wondering if they are there.

Oh goddess; I'm obsessed.

(PS, I am so going back over there to check on my lunch break...)

    Hee hee, I read this entry shortly before a coworker brought a "job jacket" to my cubicle with something to proofread. I didn't notice till she came back and picked it up that there was a dime shoved into the plastic sleeve. I joked that it was a tip but felt too self-conscious to dig it out. Now I'm going to be obsessing about that AND your pennies!

    I can't forget the perfectly good plastic storage bag I threw away last night. I don't know why I threw it away, but I can't dig in my own trash to get it out. I might need an intervention!

    Yeah, now I've got those pennies on my mind, too. Please go pick them up if they are still there so we who've read this can get them off our minds. Do us all the favor.

    Confession time: As I was walking the dog this afternoon, I started thinking: "Gee ... I wonder if Koppur got those pennies?" It was all I could do to keep from bursting out laughing! What an odd bunch we all are, eh? Please put us out of our misery and let us know if you found them!

    lol, I remember when I was taking Saturday classes at the college and how one morning I was going to class and there was a ton of pennies; of course I did not pick them up. However I thought about them all during class so when class was over I saw them and did not pick them up because people were around. This went on for a about two weeks (can you believe those pennies sat there the entire time?) now mind you I was only going to class once a week on Saturdays so a ton of people passed by them . Then one Saturday no was around and I grabbed them...lol it was almost a dollars worth, now I do not care who is around I pick them up
