With as much traveling as I do, I'm amazed that I haven't had any major loss of anything as I've flown around. And the only major issue that I can recall of off the top of my head was the first time I landed in Doha and my luggage didn't make it till the second day (British Airways didn't even compensate me for that experience, but I still had an awesome time in Club World).
Recently I had a different kind of experience, relating to something that I lost: a track. This was a certain favorite track that I for the life of me could not recall the name of or who wrote it, but I've been singing it over and over in my head (and most of last week). I even tried singing it into Shazam and that didn't work. My only remaining option was to go through all of my classical CD's that made sense...and because I knew it had flute/recorder and violin, I started in with Telemann and Vivaldi (leaving discs like Mahler and others in the binder) and holding off on my desire to pop in Mozart. And...after much classical music enjoyment...it was found! I had to laugh at myself when I found it, mostly because of who the composer is and what it's part of. Silly me.
This is probably one of my all-time favorite movements and I'm happy to share it...enjoy!

It wouldn't have helped you in this case, but you might enjoy being reminded of some of TVTropes' standard snippets.
