Yes, in this case the alien's name was Scott, and if you saw his room you  would think the aliens attacked it!
I'm now going to go turn the diploma over to the USAF so they can deal with the aliens! (before it's lost again)

Thanks everyone!

so that explains it!. .  .my car keys have been missing for days. I hope they return them soon. I have a spare but if they take that too I'm sunk! Keri, so glad you found your son's diploma. Get used to the "military" way of doing things. They hardly eve make sense. And just as a warning, my son did get pretty organized and clean after boot camp, but then he was deployed to Iraq and after a year in the sandbox came back a bigger mess maker than ever. But he's getting married next month and then it's HER PROBLEM not mine, haha.

Keri,

I'm glad you found your son's diploma -- I'm sure it was driving you crazy.  It figures that HE put is somewhere and didn't tell  you.  As for Tim's theory about aliiens, my mom always said the Blue Men took things when she misplaced them.  Hmm, I wonder if these blue men were aliens?   :D

Or maybe you will just lose the opposite shoe! I still haven't found my earrings that have been missing for almost a month now. It just makes me crazy to think about.

I lost (no, it wasn't me - she tried them on and then "flung" them somewhere) the shorts to Addi's basketball uniform!  I have turned this house upside down.  I went & bought as close as I could to match, thinking that would make the others show up.  NOPE, still haven't turned up...& she doesn't match the rest of the team!!  Thank goodness it hasn't affected her playing!!

Check your sink's drain traps.  I accidentally washed my wife's expensive diamond earrings down the drain a few years ago, never to be seen again.  I had given them to her as a birthday gift.  Fortunately, our homeowners policy paid us their replacement cost.  Suffice it to say that I won't make that mistake again.  :)

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

I know your wife (and luff her dearly!  :-* ) and I know for certain you WON'T be making that mistake again! ;)  BTW, you said your name was (insert name here)? ;)

Oh yeah...the "safe places."  My safe places are infamous in my family.  Once I was going out of town and was concerned about leaving some jewelry behind, so I put it in a "safe place."  Found it 2 years later!  Nothing is safe around me ;D.

Noooooooo shoe yet!! I keep looking everyday........I miss my shoes.....I love them...want to wear them...Sooooo comfortable and pretty too! Yesterday needed to wear a watch.....No watch ( a very expensive Rolex that was a very special gift) It doen't matter whether it is expensive or not ....I just WANT it. I have always been organized to a fault and often wished I didn't strive for perfection in this area.....not close to it now...still not happy. Perhaps I should just pile everything important into a backpack pack.....put it on....know where it is...unless I forget I have a backpack on. Geeeez this is annoying. Papers are the worst........searched all day a few days ago for airline e-ticket....it was pinned to bullitin board over my desk.....in plain site. Go figure!
