Default Where was my brain

Happens some days ago.

Was watching tv, when I suddenly remembered that i had to ask my sister something. Ok going to send a textmessage on my cellphone.

Where's my cellphone? I looked around on my coffee table nothing there.
Got up and went out into the hallway to look in my jacket pocket, not there either.

Ahh then it must be in the top drawer of my dresser. It was not there either. Then I closed the drawer and there right in front I saw it. Then my brain started to work and here's what have happened

While I was watching tv I had my cellphone in my hand, but was not aware of it. After I hade got up and on the way to the hallway I had placed my cellphone on the top of my dresse. I must have been in some kind of sleepmode.

I know the feeling. On occasion putting my glasses into my shirt pocket while opening up a hot open (to stop the glasses steaming up), and then walking around the house looking for them and trying to work out where I had left them.

A very long time ago I wasted a full five minutes searching my apartment for my lost keys with my right hand, all the while twirling them in my left.

I have also more than once felt my glasses slipping and reached to push them up, only to realize they were in the other room because I was in the shower.

It happens to us all.

Look on the bright side, at least you knew what you were looking for. Sometimes I forget what I was looking for but still look for it.

Once I find it, I can usually remember what I was looking for.

Looks a bit like Jimbuna wearing a wig.

Nothing is ever lost and is always in the last place you look. Look there first.

I almost laughed when I read the OP. Not to jest the guy, but wait until he deals with the issues we do. I can't seem to remember anything anymore. My wife will see me searching madly for something, then ask me what I'm looking for. No matter what it is, she'll know exactly where it is without getting up to look.
