Humor for a Thursday.

Our daily lives can be humorous at times.

In our daily lives we find certain objects in unexpected places.

Other times we know just where to look for them.

When my glasses are lost, ( frequently), I know that if I find my lovely wife,I will find my glasses, on her nose,( reading something.)

Cuando mis lentes están perdidos,(frecuentemente) sé que si encuentro a mi esposa, y encuentro mis lentes sobre su nariz! ( leyendo algo)

Seems if I want to find my favorite belt, I only need to find my son,

I will leave you to translate this one.

Things do appear in the most unusual places, think of the car keys in the refrigerator.

So, write your experience in English and Spanish. Add a photo if you are so inclined and lets have a moment to learn and to laugh at ourselves.

A vote for all, most votes gets best answer.

Enjoy!

please advise of typos or other errors as I too am a learner.

Hola Paco, ¿Qué tal?,

Pierdo algo todos los días y la mayoría de días más de una cosa. Sin embargo, normalmente encuentro la mayor parte de ellos. Los últimos dos días perdí mi cámara, mis llaves, mis gafas de sol, y mi coche en el estacionamiento. Podría seguir para siempre.

Hi Paco, How are things?

I lose something every day and most days more than one thing. However, I usually find most of them. The last two days I lost my camera, my keys, my sunglasses and my car in the parking lot. I could go on forever.

I once found my glasses in the fridge, after looking for them for days. - annierats, Dec 12, 2014
I "lost" my car in a car park. I went home and called the police. It transpired I had been in the wrong car park. :) - ian-hill, Dec 12, 2014
I found the milk in the closet the next day. It was not a pretty sight. - sanlee, Dec 12, 2014
I have lost so many pairs of sunglasses, I could probably sypply everyone here with a pair. - sanlee, Dec 13, 2014
I always lose my Dad at the supermarket. I mean how far can he go with his walker? Pretty far and pretty fast. - sanlee, Dec 13, 2014

Yo perdería mi cabeza si no se adjunta.

I would lose my head if it weren't attached.

It reminds me of the English saying: He would loose his balls if they weren't in a bag.

Perdiría sus huevos si no estuvieran en una bolsa. ( I'm sure somebody can come up with a suitable Spanish expression.)
