Okay, Shoot! Not this time! I've lost the darn door key. The door/entrance/entryway is firmly shut. Of course, it could not happen at a less convenient moment.
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.
