Nope. I seriously retraced my steps over a quarter of a mile of beach 5 times. Nothing. There was a ridiculous amount of seaweed built up on the shore (I think the tropical storm washed it over here) and it probably fell in there. My wallet was locked in the car, so I sat outside in <scratchout> hell </scratchout> the ridiculously hot Texas dying of thirst. I called Ford roadside assistance and my cell phone lost reception TWICE in the middle of my calls! They had to come get a wrecker to tow it a la repo b/c I couldn't get the car out of park. I went to the dealership and found out that the website that contains the encoding for the chips implanted in all their keys was down, so I spent the next 3 hours w/ my mom and little bro. I FINALLY got a call back afterwards; I went back to the dealership... $170. Damn, there goes my monopod!

I took the keys and went over to the passenger side to open up the car and I found that the keyhole had been beaten way back into the door to where it was impossible to stick a key in it. Apparently someone had tried to break into my car VERY recently. I asked the guy about it, worried that someone might actually be able to break in, and he said, "Maybe, but they couldn't steal the car witout the programmed key." Wow, that's reassuring. That's why I bring Sheila with me EVERYWHERE.
Yeah, it was a crazy day...
