Every so often, I get it in my head that I need to find some hyper specific item that I know I own. The downside to living in two countries and two states in the last three years is that I can visualize the item exactly where it was in Japan or Virginia, but draw a blank for our current home. There are a few stages of looking for the object. First, I look to where items of a similar type are stored. Second, I pester my spouse and ask where it might be. Third, I start to wonder if maybe it got lost in the move, any move, and begin researching replacement if it’s something I do actually conclude I need. The fourth stage, if I reach it, is ordering a replacement. As soon as the shipping confirmation comes through, the little door in my brain safeguarding the location of said item unlocks, and as I drift off to sleep a week after I began looking for it, I remember where I’ve seen it.
That's a system that works for me, a person that loses tangible objects. But when it’s a whole prisoner in the brig that goes missing during mealtime, it turns out there aren’t any late night realizations about where he’s located.
As promised, I'm including the link to the NCIS Wanted Page here at the top of the show notes. I also referenced articles from: Stripes, NCIS (1)(2), The News Tribune, Navy Times, WPTV, Miami Herald, Local 10, Whidbey News Times (1)(2), Seattle Times, and a strange thread on Glock Talk.
