How long does something have to be misplaced before you replace it? I'm not talking 10mm sockets, bigger stuff.

Two weeks ago tomorrow, the wife worked late, came home, threw her stuff somewhere, and grabbed something to eat. The next day she went off somewhere with her sister-in-law, she didn't drive. That was the last time she saw the key to her car. She's been using the spare key, but I'm really nervous she's going to misplace that one too. She already lost one key blade when the hinge on the remote cracked, the blade went flying somewhere and it was never seen again.

The thing that bugs me is she doesn't seem overly concerned that it is gone. "It will turn up" she say. But since the key has to be learned to the car, and if you lose both keys it gets really expensive, I worry.

Unrelated, but we also seem to be missing a soup bowl with the cover. How does a bowl go missing? She swears she didn't take it to work.
