CHAIR

for the past few weeks, my computer chair has been making noise. It heeps and yips and then shuffles down to 1 side. I just turned it over and it is missing 3 of 4 screws. I now know what clanked so loudly when I vacuumed last. I thought it was pennies or dimes that made such noise. nope. I vacuumed up 3 important screws. I can do 1 of 3 things ...

- rip open the sure-to-be disgusting vacuum bag and fish for the screws
- special-order 3 new screws from the obscure manufacturer in France
- use 3 basic screws and dental floss to make it work

I'll sit on it for the night before choosing an option
