Things that have made me have actual LOL moments at work today, in approximate order

Cataloging guides and manuals and all the updates to those paper versions, some dating back 25-30 years (and getting to throw them away because they’re ALL ONLINE NOW OK?!) --> filled 2 recycling bins.
...Including a copy of AACR2 edition I had in library school (so... old. And not useful)
The drawers I didn’t know were there because there was framed art in the way
3.5″ disks in that set of drawers
The condom that expired in 2005 in that set of drawers
Getting a link to my ex-uber-boss’s job description from a friend asking if I want to work across the street from her again. Oh Hell No, Karen.

It’s been a pretty great day of making my space less cluttered. I’m delightfully tired and I’m almost done unframing the set of pictures that had been obscuring the now-empty plastic drawers. Related? I have a ton of empty frames now that I can theoretically take home with me. Or share with those who need some frames for their art.
