View Full Version : Slowly going insane

I think I'm slowly going insane (Hence the title for the post. ;))
A few weeks back, I lost my favorite coffee thermos. Then I lost my watch. A few days after that, my TI-83 was gone. I'm going through my room today, and I can't find my drafting pencils for architecture. I'm also looking for sunglasses this morning, and no luck in finding them. Then I come back and look for my gloves that I JUST got because I have to go to work in a few, and yep, you guessed it, they're gone as well.
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!? :livid:
I have no recollection whatsoever of these items a few days before I lost them. I KNOW they exist, I just can't rememebr where I put them the last time I saw them. Is there some swirling, black hole under my bed where things are mysteriously vanishing? Or maybe I'm just giving things away while sleepwalking? Is this just me, or is anyone else mysteriously losing things with no trace of them left whatsoever?

thats how it is under my brother's bed. you never know what you can find under there. yesterday he found my christina aguilera cd case under it after it'd been missing for months and i was using a metallica case for it instead. sometimes i pull out random things cause you never know what you can find under there. one time i found a bunch of big popcorn bowls. yeah... it's a good place to dig through if youre missing something cause chances are it's in there. the top drawer of my nightstand is like that too cause ive been storing all my junk in there for years.
Bang A Gong 02-23-2004, 06:45 PM Oh man, that really sucks. I'm sorry you lost all of that stuff. I hope you find it. Sometimes you lose things but end up finding them a while later. Just keep looking everywhere.
It's a bitch losing something and then you try to back track in your mind to see if you can remember where you put it, but you don't remember any of the stuff you did, so it seems like you lost a huge chunk of time and it's just a big gap in your memory. Meh.
phoebe7165 02-23-2004, 08:03 PM Oh God, I thought I was the only one!! When I can't find something, and I know I have it somewhere, it drives me crazy, and I'll tear the whole room apart trying to find it.:cuckoo

That's the thing. My memory from those days is completely blank. I can vaguely remember the last time I saw those things, but can't remember where I put them and a few hours of the day after I lost them. Is that normal or am I just insane?
¤I Love Clay Aiken¤ 02-23-2004, 08:58 PM I hate, when youre writing or something and put it down to look up something. Then, you go to grab the pencil and its gone. You look all over the couch or whatever because you just put it next to you, and its nowhere to be seen. Then you have to get up, only to see that somehow it managed to get wedged under your ass. I also hate when Im looking for something- say my keys and I look ALL over the place, then all of a sudden something will catch my eye and there theyll be- in the most obvious place on an empty counter or by the door. :crazy:
HuntingtonM15 02-23-2004, 08:59 PM Do you live in a dorm room? Is it possible someone took them? That happened to someone my cousin knows. A girl kept breaking into her room (including going through the window) everytime she left.

I know what it is like to lose stuff!! I lost my glasses but thankfully I went to the eye doctor and got new ones during my eye exam and today, after weeks and weeks looking for them, found them when I got home!! Now I have a spare just in case my new pair gets lost!! I lose stuff all of the time and it is not the first and definately not the last!!

You and I probably have some kind of "amnesia" when it comes to misplacing stuff!! I don't remember where I put them in the first place!!

You must've had some pretty big pockets there to be able to hold a CD! :eek: :lol:
I was clearing out a box I'd brought over from my dad's not too long ago, and there was an old piggy bank in it that my dad had packed that belonged to my sis...I opened it up to see if there was anything in there...Some sheets of paper fell out, then TWO $2 bills fell out! :eek: I put that in the piggy bank AGES ago...In fact, I haven't the slightest clue as to when I put it in there...Still, that was pretty damn cool.

Everytime I leave, I lock the door. And my roommate has been out of town for a while. But when he's here, he locks it every single time. I'm also on the 5th floor of a 12 floor dorm, and with the safety locks, I don't think a bird could even get in. Plus, I know there's no way he'd ever steal from me. 1. Because he's rich and 2. Because I trust him.

The bird or the roommate, lol...
I have a knack for losing small things. And it's always EXACTLY when I need it. NEed my JumpDrive to work on a English Paper? It's missing. After I get halfway done typing it from scratch..There it is. Try to print out the assigment, and the new box of white paper is missing. Get out my inkpen to revise other stuff, it's gone (I've lost almost 1000 inkpens since school started in August. Yes, one THOUSAND).
Need a game CD? Missing. Play another game? It's missing, and the other CD shows up.
Ugh

Well, that's good then. Hopefully you find all of your things!
robyrob 02-24-2004, 08:18 AM i just reached into my pocket and found 4 pens and 2 lighters - i have no idea how they got there, esp. cuz i dont smoke
i blame the underpants gnomes.
webuster 02-24-2004, 02:32 PM I lost a french book a few weeks ago and can't find it! I always end up finding things like a year later when I don't need them!
dawsongirl 02-24-2004, 10:09 PM Okay...venting to the tune of WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?!
I keep hearing strange noises in the basement. One day I go down there and the dryer hose (the one that goes outside) had fallen off the wall, leaving a hole to the outside. No clue how that happened. Night before last, my laptop's keyboard quit working in mid-type, so I go to my mom's and it shuts itself off in mid start-up, causing it to go into safe mode. ALL IN THE SAME NIGHT. Now my DVD player won't read DVDs. I can't find 2 pairs of pants.
My house is possessed.

:lol: I'd have paid to see someone try that in my dorm room. I'd really want to have seen them scale a 5-story brick building to steal my roommate's computer. :D

The girl that did this was in the next room. She climbed out her window, walked across the roof to the next window, and broke in from there.
EricIdlefan 02-25-2004, 01:58 AM I was working at a grocery store during the night shift and a teenage boy stole some beer and I was doing my best to chase after him but one of the workers pulled me aside for fear of that teenager might have a gun. The cop who interviewed me and the manager on duty told me that it is better to let them steal a beer than to lose my life. But I did get the license plate.

Oh geez. Seems like a lot of work to steal stuff. At least doing it everyday.

They told us that too in retail.

Last week, here in Boston, at a CVS (Walgreen's or Osco type store), two store employees chased a shoplifter out of the store.
The suspect stabbed and killed one of them, a 19 year old teen.
It was the saddest local story of the week here. :(

Oh my. ohno:
I remember, almost 10 years ago (in 1995), there was a murder at the gas station just down the street from my school. My memory's starting to get fuzzy now (I was only 10 at the time), but what I do remember is that there was a male clerk working at the time the robber came into the store and held him gunpoint. The clerk didn't cooperate, and the robber shot him in the head and he died in the store. :(
Wow, I had nearly forgotten about that story until you brought it up. :eek:

Boston man arrested in CVS stabbing
By Associated Press
Monday, March 1, 2004
BOSTON - A 45-year-old Boston man will be arraigned Tuesday on charges that he killed a CVS store clerk who had chased him for shoplifting.
Daniel Rogers, who was already in jail on another matter, will be arraigned on a murder charge in Roxbury District Court, police said in a statement.
He also faces a charge of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon for stabbing another CVS worker and additional charges for threatening a third worker with a knife, police said.
Christian Giambrone, 18, of the city's Jamaica Plain neighborhood, died soon after the Feb. 16 stabbing.
Police say Giambrone and another employee at the CVS store at Longwood Avenue and Brookline Avenue chased Rogers for shoplifting, catching up with him just steps from the store. Police said that when confronted, Rogers became belligerent and stabbed both of them. A third employee continued the chase, and was also threatened with the knife.
Victim, Christian Giambrone. Pictured below.
