Sometimes I lose things, but mostly I'm the person who finds things for people.
To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I should rent CJ out for finding things. He has this knack for it.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I used to lose my keys a lot. all over town. But when we moved out here - i didn't know anyone and they didn't know me. So I felt I had to be better about not loseing the impt things. And most of the time when I do lose something - I can tell youwhere i have lost it , and I am right.
remotes don't come under impt. and I am better at finding things than Matt. but he has no method when he is looking for things, because he loses things very infrequently.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
My dad kept losing the remote so my mom bought him some gadget at Radio Shack that is a wristwatch remote. He had a lot of fun with that.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

That's really quite cool.

Very Dick Tracy. And I think that universal remotes work on some unusual things like certain microwaves. Perfect gift for pranksters.

Here's an example of a math lesson with kinesthetic stuff... I have a resume I'm submitting to a creative firm. I want it to stand out among the hundreds they'll no doubt receive so I'm submitting it in the form of a paper construction. That is, I'll submit it flat, but it will be able to be assembled into a shape. If I were better at math, I'd be able to figure out how to break the 3-D form into a 2-D paper cutout. But I'm awful at math so it's going to involve a lot of trial and error on my part.
It's surprising how little I was able to find on the web about this subject. I have great admiration for those folks who design innovative packaging that was clearly assembled from one piece. When I was in 4th grade, a kid's parent who did paper 3-d works came in and presented. It's a real artform.
Anyway, applying the math learned in school to that would be really cool.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
I don't get the urge often, but when I do, I tend to do a whole top to bottom clean and re-org.
Heh, I get like this too.
And I am a control-freaky type with my things, and when I lose track of things I go SO INSANE, like head splodey and accelerated heart rate and stuff.
Has the remote turned up yet?
Today will be a research day. All day!

Well, I had a 'date' tonight with one of the other women from my dating dilemma. I tried to let her down easy, explain to her that I was seeing someone else and so I couldn't get involved with her. There were tears, of course. But I got myself back under control eventually.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I rarely lose my keys (and never my glasses, since if they're not on my face they're less than an arm's length away), but yesterday I did lock myself out of my apartment. Fortunately, DH was only half an hour behind me coming home, but it was a cooooold 30 minutes on the stoop waiting.
So far today, I have made falafel. (Just the "batter" -- it has to sit in the fridge for several hours before I can form the balls and fry them, but still. Go me!)
