Jigsaw Puzzle

Communicating with you is like solving a jigsaw puzzle. In our case, every piece exists, but not all of them are in the box. You have taken a handful of pieces, and hid them around the house.

One puzzle piece is under your mattress. Another puzzle piece is in the drawer of your nightstand. Another puzzle piece is in the pocket of a blazer you never wear anymore, tucked away in the closet. Another puzzle piece is buried in your jar of loose change. Another puzzle piece is taped to the drain pipe underneath the bathroom sink.

Why would I look there?

Even you lost track of the last puzzle piece (it fell behind your dresser -- the one that's too heavy to move by yourself).

I'd give up if it weren't for the pretty picture on the box promising me a rural landscape with a barn and two ponies.
