luckily, i cannot lock myself out of my appartment, as i need the key to lock the front (and only) door. however, i *can* forget my keys on the mailbox lock, and i do that once in a while. it is a VERY stupid thing to do, because one of these days it won't be a kindly and honest neighbor who will find them for me. so far, the only problem it has caused is momentary panic if i discover they are missing before whatever neighbor found them can return them to me, but it could be much worse.
