Disappearing acts

I lost my Bluetooth headset in my apartment last week and trying to find it is driving me crazy. I know exactly where I lost it and exactly when, and the odds of it being more than 10 feet from where I lost it are about zero, but still I can’t find the stupid thing.

My clip-on sunglasses and glasses case have also disappeared into the ether. I have rather less hope of finding them, but given that the clip-ons were less than $10 at Wal-Mart I’m less worried about them.

Update: I found the headset this afternoon—it had somehow ended up on a shelf of the bookcase my charger is on behind the books. And I replaced the clipons at the Wal-Mart in Elmwood this afternoon. All is now right in my world. Well, as right as ever.

Like they’d be lined up around the block otherwise?

Why don’t you start with that attractive young lady who runs the bakery 25 yards from your front door!

And…hey….you be a catch for some Brazilian supermodel.

How’s your Portuguese?

Terrible. I need to (re)learn Spanish first anyway… we’ll soon see how well that Berlitz thingy I bought last month works.

And the last thing my waistline needs is me hanging around at the Laurel Street Bakery!

Damn. Scott beat me to the “Clip-on sunglasses and a Bluetooth Headset….I can’t believe some Brazilian supermodel hasn’t snapped you up…. :)” comment by approximately 1 day, 3 hours, and 13 minutes.

That’s OK, the important thing is that both of you eventually showed up to publicly emasculate me!
