You may have to call your landlord and leave him a message along the lines of, "Return my personal property or I will cut you."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
WHERE IS MY LADDER?
It must be bunnies

Allyson, I'd try contacting the neighbor who is probably all like "Whoo! At last a ladder that I can use to get stuff off the high shelves! This is the best plumber EVER!"
I'm working from home today because the gas leak in my street last week has led to the re-gasfitting for several houses, including mine, along with the consequent heavy machinery and digging-up of the street and sidewalk.
Alas, I can't work in my pajamas because I'll have to let the gas guys in and out of the house....

I like shrift's solution.
Lessons are never learned here. They're shoehorning in a software install right before the holiday. At least I won't be here!

Now tagless for your comfort.
I think there's an unwritten grocery store rule that lemon and/or lime juice can never be found in the right place. For instance, the little ones shaped like lemons will be stashed in the produce. Which, yes, ok, fruit product, but then why can't you put some of those in the baking aisle, along with the industrial sized lemon juice?
I'm so glad I'm not the only person who has wandered around cluelessly looking for lemon juice. I broke down once and juiced fresh lemons because I could NOT find the stuff anywhere in my grocery store.
I'm thinking I need some miso paste on hand.

Isn't lemon juice usually with the other juices? Or maybe I've just been lucky...

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
At my grocery store, lemon and lime juice is usually with the baking stuff.

I've seen it in baking, and in the produce section. One store had a tiny display basket in the booze aisle.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
My Safeway has those little plastic lemon & lime juice bottles in the booze section, the fish counter, and the produce section. They REALLY don't want their customers getting scurvy.
