My wife and I have been friends for close to 30 years. Married for 5. When we we're moving in together we found 2 artifacts that make this hit home.

  1. She had a CD Binder with a WinXP CD and THE key written on it in my handwriting from 20 years ago and

  2. I had a Portisehead CD with her writing on it. That CD / Album (Dummy) always made me think of her. And is likely one of the reasons I crushed so hard for all these years.

There is something to be said for the burned CD being my generations mixtape ala High Fidelity.
