But where....what...huh...where ARE they?

[Jester]

So I've been needing to reorganize my kitchen for a while now, to make it more efficient. And I was supposed to do so with my New Roommate, who needed some space for some of his stuff in our pantry. No problem. We were supposed to do it Saturday.

Of course, I did fuck all on Saturday, and he took it on himself to do the kitchen reorganization himself. Hey, more power to him, and I actually feel bad for not doing shit. And even though there are some things that I would do differently--and some things that I WILL re-reorganize--I noticed something tonight as I went to have some rum.

I opened the cabinet where my rocks glasses are. For those not in the know, those are the short glasses that people often sip sipping liquor out of, or have their drink on the rocks, etc. They also happen to be the vessels that I prefer to sip rum out of. And they...were not in that cabinet. Okay, so he moved them. No biggie.

But....where. Not in any of the cabinets. Not in the pantry, where he had moved some seldom-used dishes of mine. Not in any of the things we use as organizers. Actually, they were nowhere to be found, at all. And I had several of them, all very nice.

So, I don't believe he tossed them. I mean, that would be insane. But I couldn't find them anywhere in the kitchen, or even in the living room (yes, I looked), and I wandered through both rooms for the last 15 minutes or so, kind of dazed and confused.

If he DID toss them, I am going to be very righteously pissed. It's one thing to move my shit around, but tossing it on a whim? Not plastic bar cups, either, but nice glass glasses. That would be fucked up. Especially since he's the same guy who recently had an accident in the fridge that resulted in one of my large bottles of craft beer, of which that particular one I had not tried yet, got broken....and he has not yet offered to pay for it or replace it.

I can't ask him now, as he's asleep. But seriously, dude....where the hell did you put my rum glasses?

Edited to Add: Okay, so I am drinking the rum I wanted to drink from a snifter now. And I know some people prefer to drink their highballs in such glasses. And snifters are great and all. But I prefer the honesty of a nice rocks glass, and damn it, I want to know where mine went!

Did you check under the bed? Random closets? The bathroom? The refrigerator?

In all seriousness, I hope you find them soon and that he did NOT toss them...I'd be super pissed, too, if he did!

[Jester]

Did you check under the bed? Random closets? The bathroom? The refrigerator?

Under the bed, no. As there is no room under my bed, and he wouldn't come into my room uninvited; I can't imagine him putting my glasses under his bed; and Mr. Anti-Social doesn't have a bed, sleeping instead on a mattress of sorts that is directly on the floor.

In the fridge, no, as there is no room in either the fridge or freezer for glasses, and I would notice them.

In the bathroom, again, I would notice them if he put them in my bathroom, and I can't imagine he would put them (there are at least 8-10 of them) in his bathroom.

Random closets? Yep! No dice there, either.

Now I just have to know where the damn glasses are. SHAKE HIM AWAKE!!!

Check the freezer - some people think putting glasses in there will help keep drinks cold?

QFT - its where my ex brother-in-law kept his glasses of similar size;
and well its like frosting a beer mug - this way you can have an "iced" liquor without it getting watery.

but I think these are an awesome alternative to frosted glasses.

Those rock!

Maybe you have pixies? They like to take shit. They usually give it back, about the time you stop looking for whatever's missing.

[Jester]

Glasses recovered! And to celebrate, am drinking (a different) rum in one of them.

Roomie moved them to one of the cabinets above the fridge, but because of where he put them, how he stacked them, my (lack of) height, and the angle from which I was looking in the cabinet when I opened it, I never saw them.

I explained to him that at least a couple of them needed to be more accessible, and he was cool.

Problem solved, roommaticide averted.

That's a relief.

I love those sorts of glasses. My parents had a nice set from when they used to entertain a lot. Then Dad quit drinking, and the rocks glasses became my preferred choice for everything from juice to soda.

NNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sapphire Silk]

Sorry, Jester. I'm really not much of a drinker.

[Eisa]

Yay for finding them!

Of course now I'm randomly curious about how tall you are...

[Jester]

Good lord, Eisa, do you never read this site? It probably has more listings of my height than any doctor I've ever had! For the record, I am 5'8".

[Eisa]

I'm sorry! I must conveniently skim over every mention of your height ever! And ah.

See, this is where it pays a bit to be shorter than that, because I automatically have a step-stool around to check high cabinets.
