When we last moved we bought an 8-pack of heavy duty tape. I think we used a single roll. I have identified the locations of two of the rolls. The other 5? No clue. I hope someone has turned themselves into a clear packaging mummy with them.

Also, where’s my damn tape gun?

I use to order a lot from ULINE at two companies I previously worked for. I've used several different packing tape guns, but I grew to really like ULINE's. What's more, ULINE gives you a free item with purchases over X amount of dollars, with different items for different tiers of order totals. One of the lower tiers had the ULINE tape gun with two rolls of ULINE packing tape. So whenever I placed an order, if I didn't hit a larger tier, I would usually default to get that free gun. They occasionally break, so it's nice to have backups. Also, since they were free, I took one home for myself.

A high school friend of mine died suddenly yesterday. Everyone I grew up with has reached the age when sudden medical crises can happen and take them out. It’s sobering.

That sucks, man. Sorry to hear that. It's definitely always a shock when someone your own age dies.

Sorry for your loss, Maru. It's tough when a close family member or friend passes, but especially when it's a younger person.

I got pneumonia and have been stuck in bed for almost a week, it's been pretty rough out here. I slept almost the entire day today and I'm about to go back to bed.
