Why do the best things always disappear?
Haha, I’m kidding. Those glasses were terrible, you looked like Dame Edna in them.
Do you need your glasses for close up or for distance? What was the last thing you did where you needed your glasses? Is there any paper or something you put down recently? Look under it. Then check in the mailbox, then the kitchen sink, then the freezer.
Might be best to give up and make a new pair. Look around you. Can you form some sort of rudimentary lathe?
Have you checked the freezer?
Feel the pain.
I’ve long since passed the threshold that without my glasses I couldn’t find my glasses.
Now with my reading glasses I can’t find my distance glasses.
Was thinking of having some sort of key-ring remote attached to the glasses until kids told me that my biggest “has anyone seen” problem was finding my keys.
You left them on the radio again. Try not to do that.
OP: You, too! I’ve been too embarrassed to post about it, but there are Gremlins in my house who move stuff around when I’m not looking! [I know it’s not family since I live alone.]
You mean, like an owl?
mmm
Where were they the last time you couldn’t find them? They’re probably there again.
Hmm… They couldn’t be retrospectacles. Those are always obvious afterwards.
They’re under the fridge.
At least, that’s where my lovely machined-stainless-steel folding corkscrew turned up after about a three-hour search. There is no plausible theory whatsoever for how this could possibly have happened. The only reason I even looked under there was that after checking all likely places and progressing to less likely ones I had already checked the freezer, the sock drawer, the washing machine, and inside the oven, and was running out of places to look. I blame a dog with a sadistic sense of practical jokery.
Check to see if there is a milk carton on your nose. If so, your glasses will be in the fridge.
If you’d poured that adult beverage into a series of plastic cups instead, you wouldn’t have to worry now about missing glasses.
Actually no. They were found by my FIL. So they weren’t in the last place I looked. They were found by him in a place I’d already looked at least three times; on a shelf in the kitchen. My suspicion is that each time I looked I mistook them for a Tupperware container. You’ve gotta admit it was an easy mistake to make.
Last time mine went missing it was three days before I found them… hanging off a jumper(sweater) I’d put away in the wardrobe. The time before that they were on the shelf I’m supposed to put them on where, of course, I’d already looked I don’t know how many times.
Oh, those were yours? Sorry, I picked them and then set them down, ah, somewhere. Hope that helps!
I found mine in the bathroom linen cabinet- were yours in there too? Remember, I was putting away the towels and the tylenol?
Yeah, I constantly confuse my glasses for Tupperware. Happens all the time…
:dubious:
Look under the sleeping cat.
And if you don’t have a cat, go get one, right now.
Then you’ll find your glasses under her, I promise.
Which is surprising, 'cause they don’t keep leftovers fresh at all.
