This is like a bad sitcom where you have to hold up a laugh card to the audience

Almost epic fail today: started installing the new piston rings when i got off work and i put the first piston in the block and realized that i was missing one of the cap nuts!! I then spent an hour and a half looking for it... i asked my lil bro if he had seen it.. he had not.. but when he looked in the same area i was looking for it for ever he spotted it instantly! Sucks i was planning on having the rotating assy all back together and the oil pump and pan back on today.. oh well.. at least im not calling the mazda dealer to special order one nut!
