I can't believe I forgot to tell this story. I almost lost my engagement ring last week. I play volleyball on wednesday night. Last week I forgot to take my ring off before I left the house so when I got to the gym I tied it to my lanyard. When I left the gym I forgot that I had put it there and went on my way. So since it was pouring down rain outside I made a mad dash to my car, halfway down the block. This whole time my keysand my lanyard were dangling in my hand. I got to my car, drove home, went in the house, didn't think anything of it. I decided I was going to sit and watch tv before I went and took a shower. It took about 5 minutes for me to notice that my ring was not on my finger. It immediately clicked in as to where the last time I had it which caused a minor panic attack. I ran to my room to discover that indeed my ring had fallen off. As I began screaming for my roommate, I rummaged through my bag, checked the floor, etc. My roommate came downstairs, she thought I was dying, I told her I would be if i didn't find it.
So off we go back to school at 9:30 at night. Oh did I mention it was raining? So as I retrace my steps, in the rain, from the car to the door my roommate tried to get into the school. of course the doors were all locked by now. She luckily caught the security guard and was able to get in. I had no luck on the sidewalk and was starting to think the worst happened and my ring fell off on the mad dash to my car and ended up in a drain. I went in the school and retraced my steps from the door to where my bag was on the stage in the gym. No luck. Of course the floor is grey tile making it very difficult to see a ring. Thank god for my roommate, because she found my ring on the other side of the gym after just a couple minutes. Couldnt have been more relieved. At least Ross knows me and we have it insured for instances such as these.
Lets just say this week when I went to play volleyball, my ring was taken off long before I left the house and safely stored in its box.
