Lately I lose things ALL THE TIME. Really. Multiple things in one day, even one hour. I think this may be my superhero power (and if it is - shitty damn power, thanks Marvel). My case in point:
Approximately 15 minutes ago I put on a pair of jeans. Jackpot! Two dollars in the back pocket bitches! Now, just as I'm about to close up shop and head out in my jeans and use my two dollars - not there. Not in front pockets either. Not in purse. Not on desk. WTF? Has the sock monster turned over a new leaf and begun buying its own socks, or does it just need beer? Asshole.
(P.S. Brownie points to the person who can catch the movie reference in this post.)
UPDATE: I found my two dollars! It was in the dryer. I remembered after I found it that I'd put my jeans in the dryer to make them stiffer, less baggy after being worn so much. I learned this trick from Megan in college at 323 and that got me thinking about the time Nate says to us, "You know girls, putting your jeans in the dryer doesn't make them clean again." And the three of us just looked at him like, "No shit. We just do it so they're a little tighter dumbass."
Movie Answer: Losin' It - a little-known film in the early 80s starring Tom Cruise (and John Stockwell, who played Couger in Top Gun) where they go to Tiajuana to lose their virginity. TBS late-night classic.

I don't actually remember it, but it seems like "and if it is - shitty damn power, thanks Marvel" could have easily been a line from Mall Rats.
Hope your $2 turn up again when you most need it.
I need beer. But I didn't take your money. My superhero power is procrastination.
Ha! The ol' jeans in the dryer trick!
I'm sure that that was just one of a thousand times that we all looked at Nate that way! Poor guy...
