There is a mystery that has plagued my mind for the past few months. It involves my closet, and how many hangers I have in my possession.

The strange thing is, every time I go to my closet to hang something up, there are no free hangers. The number of hangers always exactly matches the number of things already hanging up. I will take a shirt off of a hanger, then go to hang it back up that night - and the free hanger will have magically disappeared.

My first thought was to invest in more hangers - but the problem has persisted so long that I fear I am just supplying some unknown hanger-mooch with more free hangers. Perhaps I should buy some of those really frilly pink hangers that girls use to hang up their unmentionables. It would be easy to spot the perp with this method, for obvious reasons.

For now I have taken to hiding extra hangers in my other closet (I have two). This method seems to have worked so far, and I'll know if THOSE hangers start disappearing, than it's someone who reads my blog.

Perhaps I'll set up a hidden camera in my room to capture the hanger thief. If I do, you will see him (or her) revealed via the Internet, and thusly shamed for all eternity.
