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.

1) You should have checked the car first 2) You should have kept a spare set of keys. YDI.

It took you a whole week to even consider checking the car? YDI.

This happened to me a few weeks ago. I went to Walmart and I had left the keys in the ignition as well. I thought I had dropped them in the store, and walked around the store several times looking for them. When I found them my only option was to call the towing guy to get my car opened. He took a minute to open my car and the fee was $45. Lesson always check you have your keys before leaving the car.

Spare keys are 99 cents at Home Depot and Lowe's- maybe $1.40 last time I went. I keep one in the lining of my coat, and another in my wallet.
