Losing Stuff

Isn't losing stuff annoying?

When you open a bank account in Japan they give you a little book - like the ones you used to have when you had a Post Office bank account as a kid. Recently I had started to think I hadn't seen mine for a while. I spent some of the previous evening turning the flat upside down trying to find it, then spent some of this morning turning my desk at work upside down too. It was apparently nowhere to be seen.

I started to worry about it towards the end of the morning, and thought I probably ought to report it to the bank - maybe it had fallen out of my pocket on the train or something.

In the end it turned out not to be ncessary - I decided to have one last check back at the flat, and found it there in a cupboard which only Chie uses, buried under some of her clothes. I think she had put it in a "safe place" for me. So safe even I couldn't find it!
