I saved mine. No idea why!
However, I have no idea where that, or my college diploma, are. I'm guessing somewhere in the pile of boxes in my basement resulting from several moves. I found my old law school diploma in a box, where it had a crappy looking frame that was once in my office when I still practiced law (stopped making a living at that when I got into music in 1991). So I had that re-framed just because.
I do need to clean all that junk out. I started putting it in plastic storage boxes before COVID, and then lost my momentum. I was also planning to put new flooring in my studio, and have it painted, but also lost traction on that. The painter who also does flooring got too busy, and now I hardly care any more.
I've read that rats love to eat cardboard, and that one should get rid of cardboard in a basement storage room.
Which means I should get rid of the shipping boxes for my guitar and recording gear. Except...what if I move again??? What if I need to ship something for service? What if I sell something?
You see my conundrum. I don't want rats. But I do want to be able to ship or move my gear safely. There's gotta be a compromise!
