Apparently I would lose my thumbs if they weren't attached.
I've lost my usb key on which I have an enormous amount of documents, including my latest edit of my AAR presentation. It's always in my purse, except now it isn't. Arg. I don't freakin' need this. I know I had it with me at work on Friday. It doesn't seem to be here now. It's not in my purse. It's not on my desk. I've been checking everywhere my purse has been since Friday. I've checked pockets. It's nowhere to be found. Great timing, since it's what I was going to use for my presentation. Worst case scenario, I have to buy a new one and kiss the files good bye. Yes, I probably have backups, but I'll lose all the work I did on Friday.
On an unrelated note, I've come to the conclusion that Captain Howdy, the demon from The Exorcist, is not The Devil. Because if he is, then what exactly was the plan? If, as the movie says, the Devil made people believe he didn't exist, then why possess Regan and do a bunch of freaky shit? All that accomplished was to bring a disillusioned priest and Regan's mom, back to God. I'm no tactician, but that seems counterproductive. Hardly part of a grand scheme of any kind. The demon possessing Regan seems lacking in the patience befitting a leader of men (or demons). Why not just wait until she's old enough to move out of the house and then go all batshit crazy? Why not lurk, all Omen-style, and rise to a position of power. Subtle, the Exorcist demon is not. The possession in question seems more like the act of an antisocial teen who gets shit-faced and beligerant the moment mom and dad go out of town. So I'm guessing that Captain Howdy is, at best, a minor minion on a possession spree that actually runs counter to the plans of his Satanic overlords. Just a thought that occurred to me this morning.
