I think that I'm losing it. I had a half a loaf of bread, yesterday, and I can't find the damn thing. Have you ever had something of yours disappear (continued..)

Nevermind. Just found it wedged in near the back of the microwave.

While looking for my wallet last week, I came across my wallet, put it in my pocket and continued to look for my wallet for another 15 minutes. Stress is not good.

My moms computer took a shit and died about four days ago. The hard drive died so I replaced it.

Next I needed to install Windows XP (it ran Windows 7 but was really slow)... Spent about six hours hunting for the XP disk that shipped with the computer.

Tore apart every box. I did find it but it was stuck to the wall behind my desk. I know why it would fall behind the desk. Still baffled at how it got stuck 18” above the floor to the wall.

I just assume it’s missing or someone stole it. I think someone stole wine glasses from my apartment. My place is clean, but I can’t find them anymore. They were really nice ones, too. The ones with no stem, but the shape of a bowl like a mini decanter in your hand.

I have had loves of bread disappear from my counter.

Of course, I also have two dogs, and usually find the wrapper within a day or two being extruded out of the business end of one of “the girls”.

I once had this extra Cthulhu hat that was (supposed to be) the very last Cthulhu hat I’d ever make ever. Because I hated making them and they were like sucking the life and soul out of me and my sense of business success and no one wanted anything but those stupid Cthulhu hats and I had a problem with that. lol.

So I had this hat and I was like OH I’ll auction the last one off for charity, that will be nice. And then I went to get the hat, which had been sitting on top of a box in my sister’s basement where I kept half my sewing studio and all my crafty junk. And it had been sitting on this box for a few months. And one day I go to get it, IT’S GONE.

(Probably one of my nieces or nephews, but I chewed them out and they seemed innocent… I even offered them a considerable amount of money to fess up, and they still claimed innocence. So I’m pretty sure it just flapped its little cute wings and flew off.)

But I’d already started the auction online which forced me to make another one even though I never wanted to make another one ever again because they were a pain to make. And then I decided to be a nice person because around that same time a very nice customer and fan of mine emailed me asking for another Cthulhu hat because some jerk face stole his at the convention he bought it from me at. And so he wanted to order another one. And I made an exception for him and did it. Sweet kid.

So yeah. Disappearing Cthulhu hats and stolen ones too! I auctioned that last one off though and despite the cult following and bribes I still receive over two years later I have not made another one and I feel my life is better for it. They were a curse and I expelled them. The end.

When I used to smoke weed it used to vanish all the time, I know its not scientific, but im sure that stuff has some kind of magical property that allows it to slip in to other dimensions.

If you are rolling a joint and drop a piece of weed on the floor by accident, it falls between your feet, and you look down, the stuff is gone. Entire buds the size of a finger can just vanish in to thin air it would seem.

Traditionally, they say that “half a loaf is better than one”

It often happens when my mum looks for her glasses while she is already wearing them…

The other day, I was searching for my cell phone whilst talking to my g/f…on my cell phone.

I have a habit of putting my key ring in my mouth and storing pens behind my ears. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve “lost” my keys or can’t find a pen – all the while they’re dangling from my mouth or behind my ear.

Actually that reminds me, a while back, I bought some rice cakes powdered with chilli flavoring. I brought some to work, but didn’t eat them all. When I got home I put them in the pantry. A few hours later I went for them, but they were totally gone.
My roomie is ruled out, because she tried one and hated it. So she obviously didn’t take them. I never found them. I might suspect my cats…but that just doesn’t fit. There would have been an aftermath for me to clean up if they did go after them, and if they could even open a pantry door…seriously, I have no idea what the hell happened to those rice cakes. Then again my pantry is weird…I once found five bucks in there.

Two bags of candy corn went missing shortly after I bought them last October. I knew I’d brought them into the house, and they just POOF disappeared. I found them like two weeks ago, in this random bowl that’s in my storage area. It’s really odd to have candy corn in February, you know?
