qotd: nice save

If you could only save one thing in a house fire (thing, not person), what would it be and why?

i'm not sure if my cat counts--while i know he isn't a person, he certainly seems to think differently.  if little nemo doesn't count, then certainly my computer.  it's got my music and writing and all the information i need on it.

it's a practical, not an emotional save.

emotionally, i'd probably save my collection of notebooks--see, i'm cheating by using "collection" as my one item instead of one notebook, oh, how clever--because they document my retardation from about age twelve to present.  they are in turns enlightening and horrifying.

in somewhat-related news, i think it's stupid that the qotds are auto-separated into subcategories.  i don't want a useless "nice save" tag cluttering up my tag selection.  so screw that.

i really want chik-fil-a.
