In 27 days, I went half-way around the world, from the northern Northern Hemisphere to the southern Southern Hemisphere, and back again.
I was in three US states plus the District of Columbia.
I was in six African countries--Senegal, South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Zambia. I went through passport control and customs so many times, they're a blur.
I stayed in nine different hotels/lodges, ranging from one day to several.
I was on so many coach/safari rides, I've lost count. I drove 200 miles myself getting to and from the airport in Anchorage.
Despite all that, the only thing I lost/forgot/misplaced was a tiny bottle of mouth wash. I even came home with the same two pens I started with.
BUT, this morning, I walked less than 15 feet from my bedroom to my kitchen and my reading glasses disappeared. I still haven't found them.
Umm...did you check on top of your head?
ReplyDeleteYes. I did. I did not, however, check Pablo's cage as he is still to angry with me to get that close.
DeleteSorry. No reading glasses. It should be "...too angry..."
DeleteMy mom had a saying for every occasion....for this one she would say "it's a good thing your head's screwed on"......but you won't know that because you've lost your glasses and can't read this. ;)
ReplyDeleteIndubitably.
DeleteSo far, this baboon photo is my favorite from Africa. It has multiple uses.
DeleteI LOL'd so hard it hurt.
ReplyDeleteAT THE MINIMUM I feel that I spend from one (1) to as many as two (2) hours-per-day looking for things that I 'just-set-down'. It is absolutely and it is positively AMAZING. Right now my dental-night-mouthguard is missing and it has-been-missing for a day now. To protect myself from myself I have four (4 count them) of them. When I am in India and Hong Kong and environs this does not seem to happen as often as it does here at 'home'. There are of course some exceptions! One hour before a train was due to depart I lost my train tickets and my passport for fifteen agonizing minutes in my hotel room in Agra Cant India last March 2013.
