losers weepers

my family is excellent at losing everything. they will look around the house, tearing up everything to locate the lost treasure, then i will get on the job, look underneath a book or on top of a high shelf and i will find the lost item

things i have found:

procopius -- "The Secret History" (on top of computer)
eye glass lens (sidewalk)
cell phone (in one of the pockets of the car)
emerson tuition bill (under some papers on the table, overlooked)
rebate information for the HP printer (also, on the table, overlooked)

one day, i was taking my dog on a walk and on the way home i found the lens to a pair of eyeglasses. i showed my mom who brought up the fact that my grandma had tripped and broken her glasses one night a couple of weeks ago, and maybe that was her's. so later that day, i asked my grandma. it was her's. i had found the lens to her glasses that had been lost nearly three weeks ago.
