yeah I do that too. I got to the point when I couldn't remember which pocket I put the cell phone in that I put a long black shoelace throught the little piece on the end and hung that sucker around my neck. NOW I have not lost it for one day. A funny thing too, the earpiece I had for it kept losing charge and I would be talking and all of sudden dead. I put it on speaker phone and can hear perfectly and do my work at the same time. Voila!!!! I have lots of other "lost" items too that I find when I look for something else.
