Have you observed this?

Was there an instance in your life that you are looking for something but you can't find it, and when you are not looking for it and you need it urgently, it suddenly shows up? I have observed that it always happens when I am looking for something but I wonder if other people also experience the same instances... Have you? Have you observed this too?

I have heard it happen and it did happen to me a couple of times, and it was just that I had something covering it that hid it from view. However I still have not found that battery charger for our JVC camera. And we cannot order a replacement because it can only be bought whole sale and only by a reputed dealer. It is a good thing that we now use a Canon. At least the parts are easier to come by.

You're right with the irritated thing.. Sometimes I just don't get irritated, I get so mad that I want to blurt bad words out, or just pull my hair as if it's gonna show up when I do LOL just makes me crazy everytime Thanks

Yes, this happens to me all the time, and it's because I can't remember where I've left things at, and sure enough, if I'm not looking for it I'll run into it accidently!

No, I observe that when I need something, I can't find it, then I go out and buy another, and then a few days later, I find it...

Definatly seems like this always happens to me, the minute I need something it disappears and once I no longer need it and have given up it suddenly pops up what seems like from no where! I don't enjoy it thats for sure LOL!

This happens to me almost everyday and when I stop looking for it, it's been under my noses the whole time. This happens a lot to my brothers too and we end up bothering our help to help us find whatever it is we are looking for. There's always something missing... be it a wallet, keys, glasses, a shoe... something you can't exactly leave the house without. Oh well, it's either we're getting old or someone really rude thinks it's fun to watch us go looking around. I just simply hate these instances.

Let me correct my post... I said "my noses"; I have only one by the way. LOL. Sorry for the typo.

No, what happens to me is when I need something really badly I can't find it. I may look absolutly everywhere for it and just can't find it. Then when I don't need it anymore I come across it. This has happened to me so many times. Or when I am looking for my glasses, for example, and I already have them on. I think that's too funny. I go crazy looking and then ask my hubby if he knows where they are, and he laughs and says, you have them on silly. And boy I do feel silly.
