How does one...

lose a berkeleying a/c compressor?!?

I purchased an a/c compressor from a LeMons car back in Feb. It is finally time to install it, but it is GONE!

It is not at work (where I received it), in the garage, in the trunk, or inside the house.

I really don't understand it. Plus I can't find my keys, I lost them this weekend when I pulled the dash to replace the TXV (I checked, they are not behind the dash, I lost them on Saturday and replaced the dash on Sunday).

I swear, I hit 30 and my brain has gone to mush. :(

just you wait... it actually goes downhill from there

30! oh to be 11 years younger.....get used to it. It doesnt get better....

I think I remember 30. It was a few years ago. My sister sent me a b'day card that said "Welcome to the over the hill club" she is 5 years older than I am.

I don't remember where I put things that are much more important, and I still have 7 years until 30.

I have lost my wallet more times than I can count. I usually find it, but I cannot ever remember where it is.

I constantly lose my watch, my phone, my keys, various car parts, all kinds of stuff.

Are the keys in your pocket? Is the a/c compressor in your pocket?

Did you actually buy the AC Compressor? I've pulled that one a time or twelve.

Hell, if I put my keys in the wrong pocket (this is much more likely in winter coat=more pockets to wrongly put keys in) I lose them. I haven't lost an A/C compressor, but I did manage to misplace an entire stack of 15 or 20 cd's for most of two years. I just found them a week and a half ago.

wait until you get older and have more places to put things, it gets much worse! I think I remember 30.

Ah to have the memory of a 30 year old...............

Wait, what were we talking about?

Gee... I guess I shouldn't feel so bad about losing/misplacing a lisence plate cover...

I have not been able to find my angle grinder for about a year, will turn 39 in a couple of months. What?

Check where ever you keep you beer.

My mind went way down hill when my first son was born 16 months ago. I never use to have to write down anything. Now even if I write it down, it's no guarantee it'll be remembered. Maybe it's a sleep deprivation thing.

say it aint so, I turned 30 yesterday

My kids are 8 & 6, so I don't think I can blame them for this.

I mean, I turned 30 in December and my brain has really taken a nose dive.

We won't talk about weight though, as it is certainly on the opposite trajectory of my brain function.

That and he's gettin' pudgy along with some gray hair. Ha, and he makes fun of me sometimes!

When I changed the cars back to their summer tires, this spring, I couldn't find the lug nuts for the F150's aluminum wheels. I always drop the lug nuts in a ziplock bag and leave them with the wheels but this year they decided to hide. I have no idea what I did with them. I have no idea why I would've stored them anywhere else.

I even tried the sure fire method of finding the old set, I went out and bought a new set. It didn't work, the old lug nuts are still in hiding.

see I got ahead of my older sister by sending her happy 30th B-day cards from the time she was 26, this year I begin sending happy 40th...

At 40 I blew out my right knee picking up a pen off the floor of a car. At 50 I blew out my left shoulder putting a tire in a rack. I can hardly wait to see what 60 has in store for me.

The worst part is my mind insists I'm 21 and can do the same stupid things I did in the Carter administration.

Sir, you have elavated yourself by invoking the phrase "Carter administration".

Trouble is, many of on this site would say "Eisenhower".

Heck, I remember AuH2O....

First one to invoke Truman wins.

I have tried the "go buy a new one" trick in order to find the old one. Worked like a charm until I realized I had lost the receipt!

I made a special trip to buy brake fluid as I could not find the last bottle. Bought a couple of carb cleaner while I was there. After I used it, I sought a safe place to put my new fluid and found the perfect place in a cabinet near my compressor. Unfortunately, I found this cabinet had no room in it as it already had 4 brake fluids and 3 carb cleaners in it. I should start an ambitious plan of changing the brake fluid in several cars...as soon as I find my bleeder wrench.
