well, I’m not quite as blonde as in the anniversary post photo any more – without the help of a hairdresser…

Funny, I hadn’t pictured you as a blonde….

contrary to popular opinion, one can crush a human size of plastic frames even with company around. One might even say that glasses crushing odds raise with more people in the house. blame it more on lover-itis rather than loner-itis.

as for the keys… are you copying me again? I just lost me keys… but that was a in a field next to a stone swimming pool. Fill in the blanks as you like…

Exactly the same thing happened here this morning! Scrabbling around the bedside table for the glasses which I usually find under the pillow but hadn’t – a tumbler of spring water was tipped over. I can say, fortunately that the glasses were found, on the keyboard of the laptop which was narrowly missed by the water… but these glasses replaced the ones I stepped on six months ago.

And the keys…that was priceless! Very good idea to leave a set with Mr Frog, I think.

I am SOOOO glad I don’t wear glasses … yet. I have a hard enough time getting into the elevator in the morning with my “did I lock the door” thingy and the “did I shut the coffee maker off” thingy and etc. etc. If I had to add glasses to that, and I’m sure I will someday, I will need an extra 10 minutes in the morning.

I’m with you on the recycling thing. When I was growing up, we were told in school to remove all staples from paper – that the whole bag would be un-recyclable if we didn’t – the cost of seperating out the staples just wasn’t economically viable. While I’d like to believe that we’ve made progress in the past 15 years or so, I’m never convinced when I dump everything in the recycle bin together.

At least you can blame forgetfulness…

I sleepwalk, and tend to do things in a dream state that I only vaguely remember/understand upon waking.

Like the time I ripped the earpiece off of my $200 steel glasses frames because the inside of my ear itched at 3 AM (and I couldn’t be troubled to walk 10 feet to the bathroom for a Qtip.)

Or the time I called my resident manager (of my apartment) at 2AM because I couldn’t figure out how to open the door to let the dog out to pee.

Sometimes I feel like I’ve a split personality, or a split life.

I wonder if I am more fun in my sleep?

I, too, kept forgetting my house key. I had a touchpad lock put on my door. Now I just have to remember what the code is!

It is quite convenient because if guests or workmen need to get into my house I don’t have to give them a key–just the code. Then, after they leave, I can change the code.

I recently stumbled across your blog via Expatica, and have been enjoying it very much. I love Paris, but the countryside is wonderful, too.

I have a very large airing cupboard in my flat which is so high I have to climb up in it to put things on the top shelf. One day whilst doing so I appear to have thought that it would be a good idea to take them off… only found them 4 hours later.
I have also been known to put tea bags in the dishwasher and spoons in the bin… and im only 20!

I feel bad, ’cause.. um… I used to do that to my parents on purpose. It was funny.. *shrugs shoulders*

I’m so sorry now! I’m sure that will come back to haunt me someday… *sigh*
