don't you hate when you lose stuff!

Post by htchevyii »

Does anyone else have little elves that sneak into your garage and hide stuff? Man, it seems like I've been spending more time looking for stuff lately than working on the car! I went to finish the dash tonight and spent the whole time trying to find my glove box latch and one of the little rings that attaches the switches in the center panel. The funny thing is all the related parts are still in the bag! I guess I'll give up and do something else for a while and hope the elves return them.

i am certain that my spare Ranger keys were last used by someone else in the house. i am certain of that. absolutely positive.

why did they put those keys in my winter coat pocket, and where are my glasses?

So I gave up and moved on to other things hoping the cracked out elves would return my parts. I grabbed the box today that my die grinder and related stuff lives in and guess what? There's a ziploc bag with my missing parts! :lol:

Try not to anger the faeries. If you do then leave them a nice offering!
