A house fire made my substantially less attached to my possessions. I take care of things, but if someone doesn't give something back or I break something, I don't really feel much emotional loss over it. I had an extensive midcentury science fiction collection (about three thousand volumes) - most of those are out of print and a lot largely forgotten. That was a bummer. I've been doing a fair amount of soldering lately, and for some dumb reason was resistant to buying helping hands for a while, instead building complicated fixtures that didn't work well. I was a moron, and those tentacle-clips are currently my favorite things.
