Getting old S*cks!

neoflex · 10-12-2010, 08:14 AM

So last night I decided I was going to go sit outside with a smoke and knew I wanted to grab a Nosotros that was gifted to me by Ranger_B. I knew these were in my one 300 count humi so off I went to retrieve it. So I am rifling through the humi and can't find it. WTF!? So I proceed to empty all the contents of the box to no avail. Hmmmm, that's odd! So I proceed to unload the contents of another 300 ct. to no avail. Now I am really thinking WTF, where is this stick as I knew it should have been in the last box. So I proceed to unload another desktop to no avail. At this point I am past wanting to smoke it and am determined in just finding it as I pretty much know where every stick is although when you look at my stash it looks disorganized. Still no luck. So I proceed to unload the small little cabinet I have and still no luck. I know it can't be in the other cabinet but I am 0 for 4 at this point and it's the only storage unit I have left that has not been searched. So I proceeded to tear that one apart with no luck. Now I am pissed and just can't understand how it disappeared. So I head back and unload the original box which I know it should have been in and still couldn't find the damn thing. So now I am annoyed that I can't find this thing and already invested an hour and 15 minutes to the search. So now I am thinking where the hell could this stick be? Than it finally comes to me. I smoked it over two months ago when we went on our cruise. So not only did I not have time left to go out to smoke as it was almost 11:30 at this point but I felt like a complete moron for looking for a non-existant smoke.

Somewhere out in my yard is an unlit cigar that I sat down in a safe place while I went and did something. By the time I remembered it it was a few days later. Years have gone by and I still haven't found it.

I can't tell you how many time I have to retrace my steps to help remind myself of why I went into the other room. It stinks, but it beats the alternative.

You don't have to be old for that, same thing happened to me looking for a La Triviata once not long ago

elderboy02 · 10-12-2010, 08:38 AM

That is funny.

VTDragon · 10-12-2010, 08:39 AM

Ya, been there. Don't let it worry you, just grab a different smoke.

OHRD · 10-12-2010, 08:51 AM

Awesome! Makes me feel SO much better about my searching...definitely been there!

At least you didn't forget what you were looking for after an hour.

Last night I grabbed a stick (Boli 2009 LE) out of my humi and set it on top and proceeded to put everything back in place.

An hour later I was at the Shilo (cigar bar) and was looking for the stick in my cigar caddy and realized I left it on top of the humi...

This morning as I was reading your post I realized that it is still on top of the humi because I forgot about it last night...

I'm not, but it can't be too far away as I am now at the ripe old age of 45.
