How do you lose a half gallon of milk?

[undeterred]

I remember going to the grocery store and finding it and paying for it. I remember picking up the bag. That's all I remember. I've emptied the car and its not there (checked the trunk too), its not in the refrigerator, and its not anywhere.

I'm too young to have alzheimers, I think.

:shrug:

1. I've left a jar of grape jam once

It sucks when your brain decides to conk out.

2. Check the trunk again

it likes to hide in the nooks and crannies of the trunk...I left a half gallon in there once....good news though..the smell led me right to it three days later...

3. I just did but no luck.

Its too hot out...my mind is melting.

5. I lost a gallon of milk once.

But it *was* in my trunk--found it a while later. Yuuuccck.

Did you leave it near your keys? (Putting everything down when you walk in the door?)

6. This recently happend to me, but with cream cheese

And I was going nuts trying to find it -- it was the large container that is the same size/shape as a Ben & Jerry's ice cream... yeah, you know where this is going... found it 3 days later in the freezer!

Did you check the freezer?

10. Not there either.

The people from the store are supposed to run after you if you leave without it, right? It was the only thing I bought.

Its not that I want to drink any, I just have no idea what happened to it.

7. Put a picture of it

on a bunch of kids faces. Maybe it'll turn up.

8. I hate it when that happens

I lost honey and bathroom cleaner that exact same way.

9. You probably put it on a shelf somewhere

just not in the fridge.

11. It's probably still in the bag with several other items you haven't

even figured out you lost yet, LOL! At least that's what usually happens to me.

18. I've done that

but this was the only thing I bought last night. Usually when I get in the house the first thing I do is put the cold or frozen stuff away... obviously I didn't last night!

12. When edibles disappear,

I bring all the dogs into the kitchen and interrogate them. They all have the same innocent demeanor - tongue lolling out the side of the mouth, tail wagging... No one ever confesses, BUT when I move the couch, I generally find the container of whatever was missing. I don't mind telling you, of all the things to lose in this manner, a half gallon of milk wouldn't be the worst thing to lose - at least, I'd get the floor cleaned in the rush to consume the milk.

14. roof of car?

16. damn... beat me by a minute!!!

[alphafemale]

15. My guess. You but it on top of the roof when you unlocked your door.

You got in. Eager to turn on air.

Forgotten milk still over your head.

The brave jug balanced gamely for 50 yds or so...

But then lost traction and then sslliidddeeeee ---- skitter ---- KERPLOWWEEE!

17. Milk still missing at 6:30 am

I won't find it until I buy another half gallon.
