You leave your laptop parked/placed on the kitchen table

In your rush to get out the door, you leave your laptop parked on the kitchen table. It is only when your boss requests the latest expense report that you even realize your mistake.

HI,
Is "parked" in the above interchangeable with "placed?"
Besides, is "even" optional? If not, what does it mean? Thanks.
