Today, after a week of looking for my car keys and being forced to drag my family around on public transportation, my wife found the keys in our car's ignition. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I couldn't get to work because I couldn't find my car keys. It turns out, my mother took them and put them "somewhere safe." She can't remember where they are. FML
Today, after locking my keys in the car and waiting three hours for my mom to bring me my spare, I reached into my bag only to find my keys. FML
Today, my wife and I were having a fight, when she grabbed my car keys and threw them over into the neighbors overgrown junk yard. My car is a restored '59 Belvedere and the keys can't be replaced. I've been looking for hours and I still can't find them. FML
Today, after being without my car keys for two days, I finally got a locksmith to unlock my car on the off chance I'd left my keys in there. $170 later, the car was open, but I didn't find my keys. Frustrated, I threw the paperwork in the garbage... where I spotted my keys. FML
Today, I spent five minutes sitting in my car, panicking and tearing my purse apart because I couldn't find my keys. I then found them. They were in the ignition, and the car was running. FML
Today, I locked my keys in my car. I had a spare key in my wallet, that I also left in the car. FML
Today, I went through my purse to see where my keys were. I found my house keys, but not my car keys, so I freaked out. When I remembered that I was driving, I felt stupid. FML
Today, my car keys decided to play hide and seek. Good news: I found them under my bed. Bad news: it was after my job interview was scheduled to start. FML
Today, my toddler thought it would be funny to hide my car keys. After searching for hours, I found them in his toy box. FML
Today, my keys disappeared out of my car door during the 50 foot walk to the trash can. When I finally went to security after trying to find them, they said someone drove off with my car right as I walked in the door. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Didn't you consider checking in your car to begin with? Sorry for the week long nuisance OP, but YDI.

At least your car wasn't stolen.

You, my friend, are hopelessly stupid.

Hopefully, if you we're to lose your keys again OP, your family will put an effort in helping you look for them now that they know you're not the sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes to looking for something. I imagine the wife must also feel kind of ridiculous having taken your word for it for so long. You are going to hear it for days. Good luck with that.

Wow, really? If I can't find my keys one of the first places I look is the ignition to make sure I didn't lock them inside the car. Even if that's not one of your first ideas, it should have crossed your mind before an entire week passed.

Wow you're not the brightest crayon in the box, are you? The ignition would've been one of the first places I would have looked.

I'm not sure if you're trying to achieve irony, are a moron yourself, or if you simply made a tragic typo.

How do you only have one set of keys? Take this as a lesson and get some spares made.

Always put them in the same spot and they will be there when you need them. Oh, I guess you did then... This is one of the funny ones!
