I usually never wear rings for a reason. I dont wanna lose em.
So, ever since I've become engaged, I've been nervous about wearing my engagement ring, especially at work, because I dont wanna lose it or ruin it with acid or something. But for the past month or so, I've been wearing it most days. It just feels nice and looks pretty and stuff and people are all like, "awww!" I always wear a 2nd, wider ring with it to kinda protect Jason's ring by making sure it doesnt accidentally slip off when taking on and off gloves at work. That works pretty well, until I go to actually take off the rings. Today at work I took off the rings to wash my hands before going home. I put them in the front pocket of my jeans. About an hour later, after I get home and make myself something to eat, I go to empty out my pockets when I change clothes and 'tadaa' Jason's ring isnt there. The protector ring is, though. Immediately, I start to panic and search frantically around my room, the bathroom, the kitchen, all the places I'd been at home. Nothing. I call the lab and have the people look around there since it was the last place I actually saw the ring when I took it off. Nothing. I even went back to work to look for myself. Nothing. I go back home and tear the place up looking again. Nothing. All the while, I'm more angry that I couldnt find it than sad that I lost it. Then I absolutely freak the fuck out. On my hands and knees looking under the bed for the hundreth time, I explode into tears. I called Jason at work to tell him what I had done. :( More bawling. After talking to him and having him reassure me that I'd find it eventually and to calm down and stuff. I went to cover my tracks yet again. I spot something shiny next to the dryer behind a laundry basket. :| GRR!! dammit, what was it doing way over and behind there?! I texted Jason that I'd found it and all was well again. After crying myself into a terrible headache, I laid down for a nap and swore that I'd never wear rings again. :(
also, on a lighter note.... i found my banana this morning. it was in the shoe rack. where i left it. :|
i should eat more garlic or gingko or something that helps with memory.
