In high school, I left my wallet on my night stand and forgot to take it to school one day. She rearranged my room that day I didn't see that wallet again until my mom gave me a box of my stuff she'd run across 15 years later (all of the cash had been removed).
I have really, really bad eyesight.

This is one of the best things about moving out and living alone.

If I forget where I placed something I only have to retrace where I might have set it down.

If someone else moves it, game over.

If someone tells me an item is there, and I think I already looked, I go look there again.

I relate to this.

For me, my single largest grain of contention with females; I know why they do it. "What are you thinking?" - this single question is like a retro rocket firing non stop in error resulting in improper re-entry angle and a burnt to crisp payload. I'll have a vague idea that what I was thinking was either important or unimportant, but not much beyond that.
