So I was sitting here, watching vids on the computer...

My black hole is actually my mind, I think. I do enjoy your discussions and yes, I had some stuff disappear for about two days, it is back now, when I was not looking for it. Of course, now it is time to go to bed.

Most definitely. I know I have mentioned this before but I'd not been married long and my wedding ring 'disappeared' off my finger and I had no idea what had happened to it. What I DID know, however, that it must've come off in the house somewhere. I was most upset that I had lost it. Anyway, roll through time a few months later and I decided to tidy out one of my drawers on my dressing-table next to the bed. I removed a few things I didn't need, including a bag full of junk that I had a look through to see if there was anything worth keeping. There at the bottom of the bag was something glistening. I mean REALLY glistening as though it was saying, 'I'm here, I'm here!' so I picked it up, held it up and (to this day) I could not believe what I was looking at. It was my long-lost wedding ring. John had been considering buying me a new one but I told him "That's lovely but it's just not the same." How the ring got there I have no idea but I am so relieved it turned up, believe me.

LOL Around here, if something disappears, the cat probably hid it somewhere. LOL When he doesn't think he gets enough attention, he takes the things we use on a regular basis, and hides them around the house. One day he actually managed to shove my laptop right off of my lap. haha

I have gremlins. I just scream at them to "put it back!" if something is missing and they will when my back is turned. The other day, however, I heard something crash in the other room. Someone threw a toy train off the speaker. Wasn't me, wasn't Harmony. I wondered if it could have been Mike the ghost who used to throw things in the other end unit, the one that caught fire two summers ago.

That sounds like something that would be turned into a "Twilight Zone" story. There is no black hole in my house but just a very disorganized memory. I try to put things in the same place every time I use it but if I don't I may not find it for weeks! In fact, I recently bought a new heating pad, even though I knew I had one somewhere. Naturally, a couple days after I bought it I looked in a little-used closet and there was my heating pad! Well, now I have one for downstairs and one for upstairs so no harm done.

I have three cats and a boyfriend, so things quite often "disappear" around here. However, I have had some things happen in here that are just... odd. The boyfriend wasn't around, and the cats were all in another room or the thing was not accessible to their fuzziness.

Hello ElicBxn. So that is what the hiding place is called. A black hole. I was beginning to think I was losing my mind. It seems that several things have been sucked into that black hole. I have two usb ports(I think that's what they are called) as well as a flashlight that have gone for a walk or got sucked into your black hole. There have been other things but can't think of them right now. Now you have given me peace of mind so I now know I'm not losing my mind just things I need or want.

Oh definitely yes! His name is Benji but he doesn't spit things out again. If I catch him, he chews faster, if I get my fingers in his mouth and feel around I can't find anything. When I take my fingers outt, he continues chewing then gulps and looks at me as if to say..."Gone now." I'm sure under all his hair he has a smug grin on his dear little face. It's mostly beads of course, and I find some of them later outside. Do you know any other dog that poops Swarovski crystals? Now you do.

I know what you mean.

yup.my house is notorious for "taking" things. you lay it down,turn,turn back,gone.there's no way in some cases it could have disappeared.i usually just yell out "put it back".most times it does. we've also had things pop up nobody bought,like cat toys.

Yep. Well, okay, I USED to, in the house I grew up in. Only we called it our ghost. We had a bonafied ghost in our house. Even the neighbors saw him on occasion. He would take things at times. They'd be gone for an hour or a month, then reappear like magic. Some times he just knocked things over but would usually pick them up and put them back. We could hear this going on while we were sleeping, watching tv, etc. Once, I heard him brushing his teeth. It was just me and my mother in the house and when I called to her, thinking it was her in the bathroom, she answered me from her bedroom. When I asked her if she had just been in the bathroom, she said no so I told her what I had heard, we both went into the bathroom and, sure enough, one of the toothbrushes was wet but neither of us had brushed our teeth yet. But, whenever anything went missing, we'd just wait and be patient and it would always come back eventually. Maybe you have a ghost, too? I do like your "Black Hole" theory, though.

Yes, we have a hungry black hole. It particularly likes sewing/quilting supplies. It's latest snack was my 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 inch template. It is made from clear acrylic, so even when it gets spewed out, I can look right at it and not see it. I can't see how this happened because I've been so careful to put the template back in the box with the cut blocks. Oh, I forgot. I'm supposed to act as if I don't care that the template is gone.. Goodbye, template. good riddance.

if something small disappears in my house is usually thanks to my cats. the funniest thing that happened to me was to NOT find my eyeglasses and search for them a couple of minutes.i finally realized that they were on my nose

Was it one of the cat`s?. I have this issue, but it ends up one of the brat`s played with it and flung it somewhere.

Hi friend, good to know that you are taking rest and enjoying your dinner. Great to hear about your Christmas present to your sister. We don't have this kind of black hole experience, hope your enjoyed it a lot
