    Red face How to find a lost cycling jacket

    I had looked all over the place - in 3 closets, in my duffle bag that I use for RAGBRAI, etc. Finally I bid on a used blue Decente jacket on eBay and paid for it after the item ended (7:26 p.m.). This morning I went out for an early morning bike ride and decided to grab a jacket because it was still pretty cool. My old visibility yellow Canari jacket was the first one I found. Sheesh!

    I think that sometimes these items grow legs and go out for a jaunt. Then they just wander back on their own time.

    My socks disappear on occasion. One time I found A sock in my cat's litterbox. What was she trying to tell me??

    a. my sock is too smelly and needed to be buried?
    b. her litterbox neded cleaning?
    c. that there wasn't enough litter in her box?

    My hairband is always disappearing. So is my usb memory stick with my work stuff, a rechargeable battery pack, my cycling glove. I don't have dust bunnies who might want to take things. But I know for a fact that I have a klepto cat named Lulu.

    Her other "kills", my santa hat, pens, erasers, coin purse, my shoes, tennis and cycling. Luckily, she asn't tried to bury my smelly cycling gear. I guess its too much even for her

    I did wash my jersies in woolite last night.

    I am most fervently hoping my nice expensive tent appears today (we're leaving tomorrow) so I don't have to use the Wal-Mart Junior one I did find...

    In my experience it's the purchasing of (or, more precisely, *paying for*) the replacement item that causes the original item to jump up and down and yell "here I am!"
