Anyone else so right-handed that you lose stuff that's in your left hand?

(or vice-versa) I'm actually rather ambidextrous in terms of doing things with one hand or the other (or both, such as typing), but I have an incurable blindspot for whatever I might be carrying in my left hand. I suspect that the brain is just set up this way (I'm carrying it; I don't need to worry about it), or maybe I'm just rationalizing again. You?

1. Ambidextrous in terms of doing things with both hands, such as typing?
Don't tell me.

You criss-cross your arms, put your right hand fingers over the asdf keys, and put your left hand fingers over jkl; on the keyboard?

Strange.

2. I've done that.
My left hand is reasonably good at typing, but if I have to do basically anything else with it, I'm done for.

And yes, I've "lost" things that I put in my left hand. I feel stupid afterwords, needless to say.

3. Glad I'm not the only one. Would have replied earlier, but
my damn keyboard was in my left hand!:P
