This morning, as I often do, I prepared travel mugs of tea for Sam and myself. With sugar and soy milk for me, and splenda and cow's milk for Sam. I poured hot tea into the mugs and then stirred sugar into one. I added the soy milk I had just heated in the microwave. Then I put some cow's milk in the microwave and came back to the counter to stir splenda into the other mug. Except that I couldn't find the spoon. (Some of you who have seen the clutter of our kitchen counter may not be surprised. What might surprise you is that the counter was rather empty, so the spoon should have been in plain sight.) Faced with the choice of having put it back in the utensil drawer (eeww!) or having put it prematurely in the sink, I decided I must have done the latter, though I had no recollection of such. So I got a new spoon and finished preparing Sam's tea.
On the way to work, as I took a sip of my tea, I found the spoon. Calling out to me, with a clanking, from the inside of my mug. Doh!
Blame it on the early morning... we won't tell. :)

You sound like me. I am completely non-functional in the morning.
What mojan said. And yeah, that totally sounds like me too. Right down to the soy milk in tea. Yum.
