Magnetic Fields 4-EVA.

Elizabeth took a jog down memory lane while showcasing her chaotic refrigerator door the other day, which made me laugh, because my roommates are always cursing me for my own cluttered cooler. My own memories aren't the only ones that are kept on that door, but those of others as we have kept every postcard, magnet, coupon, crumbly love note, etc. I used to find weird stuff in the street and stick it up there, but that just got too insane and I had to get a little more selective. Unfortunately, my camera battery was dying when I took this photo and obviously this was an urgent issue, so I couldn't wait for it to charge. Long story long-- Um Sorry for the blurriness of the pic. Oh well.
