Yeah, I don't really lose things as often as I should. I used to have just scattered piles of in my bedroom, and if I was looking for a specific shirt, I would know exactly which pile and where (dirty pile, someplace in the middle, probably under the jeans I last wore with it).
But every now and then I put something someplace absent minded, like if I walk out to the fridge I might take the remote with and leave it on the kitchen table. Then I spent 10 minutes searching the living room for the remote and give up and just end up watching Cops for 4 hours in a row until I get hungry again. I don't know why I don't just check the kitchen first every time...
