Today's bit of surrealism

So there I was at Loblaw's picking up my meds when I happened to turn around and found my underpants lying in the aisle behind me. Surreptitious fingering revealed that I still had my underpants on, but their twin (from a set of Fruit of the Loom) was definitely lying on the ground. I hastily picked them up wondering how this could be. True, I'd worn my current pair of loose trousers last week and hung them on the rail in case of warm weather, which we now have. Maybe the underpants had got caught inside them and I hadn't noticed when I put them on this morning? But the sniff test revealed that they were freshly washed. Maybe they'd got stuck to my tanktop in the laundry and I hadn't noticed when I put that on? however unlikely that is, and anyway, I was wearing yesterday's tanktop *and* yesterday's shirt. So I don't know.

Maybe they're someone else's underpants, and now I have an extra pair.

Inanimate objects are clearly behaving oddly in your vicinity. First the water bottle, now these underpants . . .

Maybe I should worry about my bicycle next...

There's a third possibility, which is that they somehow got stuck to the velcro of my lumbar brace when I picked it up off the bed. But you'd think I'd still have noticed.

Also L's mom said she climbs. So maybe I didn't leave that bottle at floor level after all.

I hope your bike will be left out of this mystery.

Oh me too, me too.
