5. It's a very strange phenomenon to experience

A similar experience happened to me several weeks ago.

While riding off the mountain with a friend who was taking us grocery shopping in his car, I searched my laptop bag and purse looking for my "readers," my glasses that let me read anything in my dotage. These glasses are easy to spot since they have rhinestones on them ( this is why old ladies buy glasses bejeweled with shiny, sparkly bits ) and I KNEW I put them in the laptop bag right before I left the house.

I assumed they had fallen out of the bag back in my car. Nope. Once we returned to my friend's place, I searched the car.

Inside his house, I took everything out of my laptop bag and searched every pocket in it twice. My friend watched me. If I hadn't been sure I put them in that bag before I left, I wouldn't have been so insistent on emptying it out, but the glasses were nowhere in that laptop bag.

Later that evening, I get home and set the laptop bag on the hope chest next to my desk. I leaned over it to get my computer out, and there were the glasses, sitting nice as you please at the top of one of the side pockets.

I immediately called my friend, who said "Those glasses were not in there!"

Freaky.

I think the Tsalagi blamed the Little People, but I just had to laugh at the whole thing and, like you, feel a little better about my CRS.*
