Why? How?

[tree_and_leaf]

How can a lever arch file of notes and photocopies just vanish? How?

Naturally, precisely when I need them to check references...

ETA: it turned up. Amazing what even a bad dinner followed by thinking about something else (in this case playing bowls with the second year) will do. I still think it was hiding, though.

It drank a potion of invisibility.

It put on a ring of invisibility.

It put on a cloak of invisibility.

It's refractive index suddenly became that of air.

It's hiding behind a prism.

The file-munching fairies found it and ate it.

I think it's the ring. I'm getting an aura of evil of that thesis chapter :)

[wellinghall.livejournal.com]

No, that's just the evil inherent in any thesis ;-)

Love the icon, BTW.

It's angevin9's - and it's all too true!

Can I be really nosey and ask what your thesis is on?

If you will write fic about Death Eaters coming to Oxford... (enjoyed the beginning of that very much, by the way, though suspect I didn't tell you so.) Hope it escapes their clutches soon!

[tree_and_leaf]

Yes - it has returned.

I hope to finish the Death Eaters in Oxford at some point, though I've got plenty of thesis stuff to do at the moment....

I'm pleased it turned up.

[tree_and_leaf]

So am I. The printouts didn't matter, but the various photocopies would really have been a pain to replace.

If it'd been in my flat it would have fallen victim to the Terrifying Passport And Driving License Eating Monster (this is actually a misnomer. It's a furry, snake-like creature that builds nests in the skirting boards and shreds up your vital documents to line nests for its nasty bald babies)
