Nozzle disappeared!

Strange things have been going on at my place. Recently had x and y shifts on the same failed print, and today (two days later, with no printing since the failure), the nozzle is missing. Gone.

Whatever you did to your housemates ... well ... welcome to the fray.

Only thing that makes any sense is that the nozzle got caught up in a big glob, which I threw away. But I've searched my cardboard box of recycle plastic twice already, without finding the nozzle. Guess I'll go look again. Usually I have to heat the block a bit in order to get the nozzle out with a wrench, or socket, because I heat the block a bit before I tighten the joint between the nozzle and heat break.
