Friends' house, under the furniture, returned car rental, where is it?

Loved this post from a great editor I've worked with before:

With so much bad news I want to share this good news: After searching everywhere for four days, have finally found where I left my favorite mug. (The handle is extraordinarily comfortable.) Went to friends house to see if it was there...looked under every piece of furniture... Even made my sister check with the car rental. Yes, finally livin' the dream. Of being a full time writer.
