You know the scene; you are walking out the door (late as usual) & that critical thing that you have been looking for is missing; your keys, your wallet, your phone, your lunch, your sanity!!!
I have tried to be methodical about this; you know, “I will put my keys in the same place every night!” Yeah, right buddy, but they are not in that same place when you wake up. I swear that there must be a secret lunch room for critical items, & when you leave the house, they all congregate for a cuppa & a bikkie right at the time when you need them to be in the place that you left them. I think that this must be true coz when my wife starts helping me to look for them after I have done my “tarzanesque” jungle call, she goes stright to the place that I told her I left them, & shazaam, there they are. “But I looked there” I say as she silently holds out her hand with that blank “you idiot” stare & smug smile. I think that she is in on this & that she simply inlocks the door to the critical items lunch room lets them out while I am not looking.
So, what do you famously lose right at it’s most inconvenient moment? Do you have any theories about this? Do you have any strategies about how to combat this? If you do, you could write a “self help” book about it & make a fortune. I would buy one, althogh I would probably lose it. If only I could find that lunch room.
