Okay, Shoot! It happened! I've locked myself out. The door/entrance/entryway is solid as a brick. Of course, it always seems to be when I'm in a hurry.
Hmm... maybe I could climb through a window/pry open a loose pane/sneak past the dog. Nah, that's too risky/dangerous/outlandish. Looks like I'm going to have to call my neighbor/wait for my roommate/ask for help from the landlord. This is so frustrating.
I swear, next time I buy a spare key/hide a key somewhere safe/install a smart lock.
Lost Your Car Keys? No Sweat!

First, go back over your movements from the past few hours. Think about where you've been and what you've touched. Maybe they're in a unexpected place than usual. Check your pockets thoroughly, as well as any counters you might have placed them on.
If you still can't find them, it might be time to reach out a trusted friend. They may have seen your keys or could help you hunt for them.
Lastly, if all else fails, don't despair. You can always contact a locksmith to make you a new set of keys. It might be an extra expense, but it's definitely better than being stuck without your car!
