I had something rather strange happen to me that came to a head yesterday. It started back two weeks ago today when my family treated me out to dinner that Thursday night at a very nice restaurant. I always carry a set of reading glasses in my purse that I use when I'm at work or out someplace that I need to read something. Otherwise those glasses never leave my purse because I have reading glasses scattered around the house to use in places like my computer station when I might need to use them. So I read the menu and thought that I returned them to my purse, but I don't remember exactly. Well, I thought nothing of it until I went to work the next day on a Friday and the first thing I do is take my glasses out of my purse. I did this and there were no glasses. I dumped the contents of my purse on my desk and there were no glasses. Fortunately, the first patient had cancelled so the doctor let me run home to pick up another set of glasses.
I picked up one of the spares and finished the rest of the day at work, going into my drawers and file cabinets like I always do as I need to fish out stuff to work with. I did not see any glasses in any of those drawers, although I admit I wasn't looking for them because I had opened my purse and discovered the glasses gone before I had opened any drawers. Also, I keep them on a small shelf under the top of my desk when I'm not using them, never in a drawer and the shelf was empty other than the spare I had brought from home. After work I went to the restaurant and they didn't have them. I wasn't worried about the glasses because they are cheap ones I buy for $10 for three. But the case was a very nice designer case that I had bought as a treat for myself and I wanted it back. By that time I figured someone had picked the case up and noticed the case was very nice and kept it.
I forgot about it going to work the next week. No glasses in the nice case were anywhere in sight. Then I had a week off because my boss went out of town to spend Passover with his family. I went back to work yesterday and went through my routine, setting my desk up for the day, which includes putting the glasses on the little shelf and going into the top drawer to get some supplies out. There on top of everything in plain sight were the glasses and the case in the drawer. I don't know what to make of it. I don't know how they got into the drawer. I swear I didn't put them there and why didn't I notice them until yesterday? I had not even asked the faeries to help me find them this time.
What do you all make of it?
