That five-word sentence DOES "say it all", almost as well as "He dropped the ball".
That SECOND sentence means "He did fail",
AND from that FIRST sentence I'd likely quail.
Who, of you, indeed, wants to lose …………."IT"?
YOU may LOOK and LOOK, but then you may quit.
And "not finding IT" may seem worse than its losing.
STOP THAT LAUGHING! ! ! ! It ain't too damn amusing! ! !
[[ "Where oh where has my little dog gone" was…..
one of the lines in a "little-Bri"-growing-up-song.
"Where are my glasses? ", not long ago I did say, then ….
"Why, they're perched atop my head. ……..Hey! ! " ]]
SO my advice to you, Readers, who've lost a library book …. OR ….
your cell phone, or your purse, or your favorite …..musical score,
is "Look, look, look, look, look, and then LOOK! ......a little bit more".
THEN pour a beverage into your cup,
and TRY to "move on" and FORGET "IT".
Then [[ with luck ]] "IT" MIGHT just show up!

This is so amusing a write Bri....! The solution you suggested at the end seems to work wonderfully though I haven't tried. But somehow when we try to 'move on' and forget 'it', it miraculously pops up from nowhere! I can't stop laughing.... hey who has given this a 1.0? To compensate it I give you top marks!
there is a bemused pleasure in finding the icecream in the oven and even, I suppose, the chook in the washing machine.
Short and sweet: If you're losing shit you're losing it. die... it cola
