Object disappears whenever I (accidentally) hit the a key??

Hey, I am very new to maya and i'm having an issue. Whenever I hit the a key on my keyboard my object is no longer in my window and I cannot for the life of my find it again. Is this normal behavior for the a key? Could this possibly just have to do with the file i'm working in? Also there must be a way to just get back to view my object, how do I do that? I have very little maya knowledge. Thanks!

Sounds like you are hitting the 'h' key.  It is a shortcut to hide an object. pressing 'h' again right away will unhide it but once something else is selected you can find the object in the outliner but it will be greyed out.  Select it in the outliner and hit 'h' again to unhide it.
