These kinds of exercises remind me of how little I'd truly miss if my house was burning down.

Honestly the only thing I'd really want to take is my laptop. And that's just because I really busted my ass off paying for it. Not a single dime was spent on that laptop that wasn't my own. Took a two hour commute to my job and back and worked 15 hours a day for it. I earned that thing, like hell some flames are gonna steal it from me.

Everything else I own is less expensive. Hell, even my journal is on my computer, so that's that. All of my photos are backed up. Same with my music. Videogames are unimportant in the grand scheme of things.

I suppose my wallet, but I haven't carried cash since I got a debit card.

So yeah. My laptop and my wallet. I'm not a sentimental person.
