As the proud owner of the third-largest collection of Not Found logs in
the state, permit me to welcome you to our collective addiction. The
frustration doesn't go away until you do find them, but sometimes the
frustration enhances the ultimate satisfaction when you do find 'em. As
proof, I offer into evidence our multiple log entries on Holiday Cache
(http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=16160). It took us
four tries before we were successful, although I think after all our
whining they did upgrade the difficulty rating from 1 to 2. This wasn't
as a result of being inexperienced, either. When we did finally find it,
it was the 147th notch in our GPSr.

Since I can't locate any Not Found logs for you I can't offer you any
specific advice, but keep in mind that lots of urban caches are hidden
for the purpose of providing a challenging find (very small containers,
well-camouflaged, etc.).

And that is what it's really all about. Happy caching!

PS: I wonder how AzFastFeet passed us for second most not-founds? I
can't wait till this meeting is over so I can find some time to go
caching again!
