i found my keyless remote. i found my keyless remote. ::skipping happily:: i went into my car to just make sure i truly, truly couldn't find the @#$%$@#% thing. and sure as shit, it was wedged really, really hard in between the driver's seat and the middle thingy. how the hell it managed that i could not tell you. but i am sooooo grateful.

(i still am a dumbass, though. never keep keys to an expensive car on such a crowded keychain!)
