Happily, I had just transcribed a couple of scenes to my laptop. But argh! I've had that notebook for two years, and it's got a ton of stuff in it.
Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Ack, Consuela! No good! Have you called the airline to see if they recovered it?

Gah! I'm so sorry, Consuela.

I haven't, because, well, I'm kind of embarrassed. It's my fic notebook, you know?
Also, I didn't realize I'd lost it for a while.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Oh NO! That sucks.

I'm just kicking myself. What a stupid thing to do. But happy I brought my laptop with, and the hotel has wireless, yay!

Call the airline anyway. Don't be embarrassed. Who cares if they raise an eyebrow or two? Keep telling yourself that you don't care what total strangers think -- it's not like you plan on babysitting their kids or anything. (You don't want to lose two years' worth of thoughts and work, do you?)
(This advice brought to you by yet another total stranger, whose opinion means absolutely nothing to you, of course.)

I lost a fic notebook on the bus. It didn't have anything identifiable in it, but I hope whoever found it enjoyed the Spander.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Call the airline, Consuela. You're a writer, and it's a working notebook, full of ideas and drafts and false starts. No hesitation necessary. If they can find it and give it back, great! If not, at least you did what you could to recover it.

It's going to be one of the less exciting things they find on the plane, seriously -- they're more concerned about child pornography and bomb plans, et cetera.
