I have discovered my superpower. I can set something down in front of me in plain sight. Then, without going anywhere, without looking away from where I set the thing down, and even, incredibly, without actively thinking about anything else, I can proceed to lose the item so utterly and completely that I end up looking for it in other locations, even though I'm pretty sure I didn't go anywhere in the last several seconds.

I can also hide things so well they won't be found for months, if ever. All I have to do is be all like "yes, here it is, the most obviously intuitive and ideal place where this item should be stored, I will put it here and then I will always know where it is, because naturally such a perfect spot will be the first place I think to look" and then go to sleep.
