I [and others] say-to-self - "now THIS I need to keep safe and put some place special.."

As a kid, I once lost a special mouthpiece (trumpet/cornet) - thought sure it fell out of pocket during a dust-up with another kid. Spent hours looking around a stable - think hay + hay + hay. No dice :/
Irreplaceable - couldn't afford another 'custom-made':/ :/
A week or so later: there it Was: in a bathrobe pocket! W.T.F. was I doing! putting That in my bathrobe pocket. I didn't, buchaknow all those little i's always running around loose in thejelloware? {'well, i think..' 'i think that riff Sux..'}
== (i)t put that in my bathrode pocket, not moi. {sigh} The arm-muscles can and Do move and 'place' things, utterly unbeknownst to the jelloware.
