3. Are you in your house?

I mean, did you lose it after unlocking the door to your house? It might be right at the door or if you have a storm door, between the door and storm door. I have lost a key that way before. Also, check your A/C vents, if you have any. Things fall in those so easy, especially if you have cats around. Cats like to stick things down in those to watch things fall. Cats are smarter than we think. So, ask the cats or watch them, if you have cats. They are jokers.

P.S. Did you drive all those places or do you live in a city where you can walk back to all those places? If you drove, it might be on your key ring still or in your car, depending on how you normally keep up with your car keys and house keys.
