Where'd it go?

I can't find my Resivoir Dogs DVD. What do you do to find things you've misplaced?

Generally I clean. When I lose stuff it's usually because it's buried under a bunch of things that needed to be thrown away.

I ask St. Anthony (the patron saint of lost objects) to help me find it...and it usually turns up.

When I was growing up, if I lost anything, it usually turned up in the basement.

Now, I call the missing item - like you'd call a cat or dog. "Here, keys keys keys keys keys... heeeere, keys..." Believe it or not, it works

I go get a new one. The old one always turns up then. I just make sure to keep the receipt of the new one so I can take it back.

I'm glad someone else does this too...everyone at school looks at me weird when I tell them this, but it works, honestly!

He's the patron saint of lost objects, and St. Jude is the patron saint of lost causes. I often ask the latter for help with term papers.

It's either...

*under my bedsheets
*at my computer
*in the grandkids toybox (there are 6 suspects that put various things here..)

If my MIA item isn't in any of these places, it's a lost cause.

everything either turns up in my bed or under it

Billy what the hell is resivouiry Dawgs anyway?

Hell, the best way to find something is to go out and buy another copy and it will stand out on the pile with flashing lites!

Know only to well, voice of experience!

Works every time!

I spent my last spending money on xmas gifts

Did you find it? If not, I hope that you do.

Dionysus · #14 12-03-2002, 01:31 AM

I have a tendacy to space out when I'm doing certain things so I find things in the oddest places, for example I once put my keys in the fridge.

Peaches-n-Cream · #15 12-03-2002, 01:37 AM

I just found the sugar bowl in the fridge.
