WHERE THE FLICK IS MY DAMN REMOTE CONTROL!!!!
I'm spending this weekend at home so I can save money and finish up housecleaning & packing. I like to put some DVDs in the TV to watch while I'm cleaning and now I can't find my fricking remote control. Where is it hidden???

1. Does the TV have a pager button on it?

3. On top of the TV cabinet? Under the cushions?
Sometimes I forget and bring the remote into the bathroom with me.

I think the weirdest place I lost it was in the refrigerator. I must have put it in there instead of the OJ I was drinking.

4. Couch cushions?
Cat got it? Under the TV stand? Behind the couch? Under the table? In my house, I'd ask my daughters. Surely they would know, but unfortunately, they are currently sleeping. Good luck.

9. Actually it's the bedroom TV
:cry:

I wanted to watch Gold Rush, but couldn't because I need the remote control to select that movie instead of the other one on the DVD - The Immigrant

12. The washing machine?
Once, I stripped the bed and stuffed the bedding in the washing machine. Later when I went to put the laundry in the dryer, I found my remote control. After it dried out, it still worked, though I did have to replace the batteries.
