O, Fortuna?

Rooting around for a USB mouse for my iBook G3 I stumbled across a bag of coins, mostly Roman, that I'd written off as long gone over a decade ago.

Of course this happens when I have a two-digit balance in my checking account and a ton of invoices outstanding that could show up any day now.

This is fate playing chicken with me.

That 1/12th stater from Miletos got lost in history's sofa cushions 2½ millennia ago and I thought it had disappeared again.
