Things that go missing

[bjorb]

Would be pretty no-life if there were a window faller of sorts who collects socks.

Though, it would explain everything.

Loved that study on missing spoons

jajaja, you made my day with your stories and the excellent videos. The other day I found a ring that my mother gave it to me many years ago and that I lost, it was in a pair of pants. How come? And my keys sometines disappear from where I put them. So because I don't panic anymore with keys (I worked with that situation), later I always find the keys where they were suppose to be. Where were the keys when I looked for them? Mystery. Sometimes it is because we loose attention, we are not present. But sometimes! it is very strange and there is no answer.

It's good to have fun!

Here's another joke with socks and other personal belongings:

Grandpa asking his nephew:

Johnny, what's the name of that German guy who uses to hide my socks and keys?

Alzheimer, grandpa!

Oh thank you for sharing that joke! My grandparents loved jokes and we always shared new ones every time we saw each other. They would have gotten a big kick out of that one and shared it with all their friends. Brought back some great memories :D

Hi all, and thanks for all the responses, I had a laugh with some of them, especially George Carlin's skits. So, anyway, to continue the saga, I found the other sock, it never made it to the wash. OK, so far, still no sign of that white bra I put in the washing machine, and my wife has accounted for both of her white bras, so what the ... did I put in the washing machine? Mystery.

You've just reminded me that I had a similar experience with socks last week. I only wear black socks so they're all the same. I have a habit of counting stuff so I know how many pegs to put in my pocket to peg out. I counted 12 socks, pegged them on the line counting as I put them on. Only 11 socks!
I hunted high and low for that sock, looked in and spun the washing machine drum about 5 times, went outside and counted the 11 socks about 3 times. A couple of days later I happened to move the laundry basket in the upstairs bathroom, and there it was behind the basket!

I lost a sock once, only once, and then I found it behind the laundry basket too. So it was weird when I heard from many other people that they lose socks (and other items, but especially socks) during launry.

I put it down to high strangeness, and commented to my wife that maybe they had ended up in another dimension.

My tentative theory about the missing items that get lost in the washing machine, is that it might have something to do with the spinning :D It seems that some socks are ready to graduate after a certain amount of spinning, others, not.

Does socks, as earth creatures that are dying in mass, are quitting this version of earth for a better one ?

Certain antimicrobial socks are to be handwashed so it may limit their loss.

I just had this sudden thought that maybe someone in that other dimension put the white bra in the wash basket so that I would wash it for them, and nicked it back before it got hung out! {cue Twilight Zone music}

I love this thread! xD

Some lost objects are probably ordinary, but I'm pretty sure that others have been pulled through a dimensional window.

When I lived with my organic portal (knew him since childhood married him for 10 years; the only human I'm am 99% sure of being an OP as he matches everything the C's say to a T) lost objects were a daily occurrence and they were always key items to successfully meeting that day's challenges. My theory is that living with an organic door between densities made it easier for entities to mess with us. Now that I live alone and do my best not to channel- things are almost always where I leave it.

As far as where those items go, I was told by my portal/channeler that they were "pulled out of our reality" which sounds a bit like 4th density. Furthermore, I once read one of those new agey books on angels and I remember a few of them were said to help with lost items, so I really think it's likely that there is a multi-density aspect to this.

Sooooooo... since losing wallets and keys and paperwork EVERY SINGLE DAY was a huge pain in the butt, I came up with a technique which would almost always work:
1. I'd see myself finding it in my mind and feel a big surge of gratitude.
2. "Oh THERE it is" I'd keep saying in my mind, as I'd keep looking for it.
3. I'd forget about it as I kept looking, if the thought of what was missing came back I'd just repeat "there it is" with a feeling of faith that I had found it.
I'd usually have the item back in under 5 minutes.

Interestingly though, this technique would never work with socks. Maybe Seinfeld has it right. xD

Since we were talking about things that are highly strange, it happened again yesterday.
Not with the washing, but with the electrics.
I walked barefoot into the bathroom (in the dark as I usually do) and my foot hit something, so I turned on the light - it didn't work - so I turned on the infra red (Tastic heater) and spotted this light globe on the floor which I had kicked.

The glass part had come adrift from the metal which holds it into the socket, and simply fell out. The glass was intact after falling onto the tiles from that height, and the metal part was still in the socket. I was quite thankful that it hadn't broken, for being barefoot I might have done myself some damage. I have never seen this happen before!

So, another repair job is in order. General Law?

This happened to me not too long ago (a month, maybe six weeks) with the bureau lamp I use while computing. Only, in my case the glass bulb still hang loose onto a tiny metal thread but mostly within the armature. Could easily have short circuited when I turned it on but it didn't, and I immediately spotted the problem so I could change the bulb right away with no harm done.

Sloppy producing with no quality control to speak of would be the reason, I presume. ;)

When I am missing something and know I have looked EVERYWHERE, I resort to asking to be shown the item. "Show me the sock!" It takes about 3 minutes and for whatever that mental or extra-dimensional process truly is, I easily locate it. I have given up trying to figure out how exactly that works! Loved the videos BTW...Thanks!
