Where the hell did I put....

Post by HackingGanesh »

I just got another freedom bag today from monsterhack.com, and I was trying to loosen it up a little (freedoms are soft, but compared to my abshire it was pretty stiff), so I kick it around a little before my friends come and grab me for dinner. I come back, and my bag is no where to be found. My abshire is right on my desk, but my freedom is gone. I've looked everywhere, I tore the room apart for it. I just hope it's still in the room. Anyone else have stories of losing bags and finding them?

Only one lost bag ever came back to me.

I took a bus trip and had the bag when I got on the bus but it was gone by the end.

I searched the bus and my stuff but I couldn't find it.

And then miracle happened! Several days later I thought to myself 'you know.. theres that one nook in my bag that I don't think I searched over ten times.." I went and looked and there was my Carol. Yayyy!!

I wish you the best of luck in finding your bag.

i lost my own best bag... i was on my way to shred with the montrealers and i really wanted to kick with it so i was breaking it in with my hands in the bus... i had a backpack full of stuff that was a chaotic mess so i decided to organize myself a bit before i reached the retro metro since i'm such an organization freak... big mistake.... i reached the metro quicker then i though and was in a panic to get everything back in my back pack... i got up to run out of the bus and forgot that my beautiful purple footbag was still on my lap... and not in my footbag pocket in my back pack. i thought i put it back in along with all of the other things in my bag. i realized it was gone as i was waiting for the metro...ran back upstairs and searched on the ground where i got off the bus..... wasn't there and i missed my metro making me very late for shred. shitty night.

Brain, I stole your freedom. I teleported to New Jersey sneaked into your room and took it. One may ask why I didn't take the Abshire truth is that I stole everybody else 32s but they just don't know it yet.

Actually, I used to lose my bags all the time. After,I lost one of my freedoms for a week a started a 'footbag' spot which was this little area where I only put my footbags, nothing else.
I think I going to take over Canada. You should help.

I usually leave my bag on my lap and forget about it. Then I go to get up and walk away, leaving my bag on the floor. This happend soooo many times.

This story takes place well before footbag came into my life. My first crocheted bag that I got was lost down a sewer drain in front of my house. I was really sad abou the loss, but I got over it. I went on kicking another bag for a few years, and two summers later I was doing some gardening work in the backyard, when low and behold, there it was in a bush! I don't know how it happend, but I know it was the same one, cause it had the red stitching that I put on it to close it up.

I was happy!

And just recently, I found an old sandman in my winter coat when I took it out of the closet for the colder weather. I was happy again!

:D

i did the same thing, i had a quarter of pot on my desk, and i went out side shreded and came in and it was gone not more then 15 mins, i searched every where and my mom did too so i came to the conclustion that some one robed me, then the next morning i awoke ready to go to my aunts and i was planing on footbagin the hole time an i had my mind set on doing a tripple dex on the trampline :) but I COULDNT FIND MY BAG so then i had a fit an thought it was a ghost or something, i never found the quarter but when i got home from my aunts i found the bag in my shred shorts poket, witch i never use. :P
ever since then i got this rug, its a ying-yang like 2 foot circle, and i keep my shoes and my bags at all time in this circle on the rug, its my footbag rug.
my new kitten seems to call it her new bed tho :) she gards my bags from all them evil bag nappers :P


sorry to hear about ever ones loses, i have lost lots of things the same way as cclaudia, rushing around, have something on your lap, and forget its there get up and not take notice to it... haveing something like that happen on a bus or some place u will never be again is rough... shit it sucks when that happeneds in my room and i dont notice the bags under my desk.

Last year I was waiting a bus after school to get home.
It probably fell when I took something else from my pocket. I was quite sad the rest of the day.

Next morning I came to school and spotted these kids kicking something about 100-200 meters away from the place where I was standing. I had this small drop of hope left inside of me and decided to go closer.
And BINGO!
There it was! I told them what had happened and they gave it back to me (probably they were afraid of my big muscles. and I knew one of them.).
A bit muddy and wet, but still it was mine.

Lol, don't steal Brain's freedoms anymore, that's not nice :wink: . Anyway, I just got back from class and my room is locked, I walk in, and sitting on my desk is my freedom. I just stood there in complete awe of what happened. I had no idea how it got there. So my roommate was online in class and I msged him, it turns out it was in a pair of shoes he never wears, but he decided to wear them today and found it when he put them on. 8O

I lost my best bag a week or so ago, and my wife just found it at the base of my nightstand next to the bed!! My recommendation is to look in the same places you normally lose your keys. :)
