I lost my engagement ring last night.
You see, when my hands get cold, it slips right off. I was sitting on the couch, and I felt it slide off. I thought for sure when I stood up, it would just be laying on the cushion, but no. We looked for it for close to an hour, before Aaron finally gave up. I mean, we pulled the cushions off, he lifted it up so I could look under it, we shook out the blanket and everything. And as I was on the verge of tears, I decided to put myself in the rings position. AS CRAZY AS IT SOUNDS, it worked. I was basically upside down looking in every nook and cranny & I found it. It was wedged between two pieces of fabric in the bottom base of the couch, underneath all of the springs. Needless to say, we had to use tweezers to get it out, but LUCKILY I found it. Talk about almost having a panic attack!
Anyways,
A few of us art ed. majors are leaving this afternoon to head up to a school in Gordo, Alabama to teach art lessons for two days. It should be interesting, but I'm a little bit nervous. We're each going to have our own classes ALL day for two days [thursday & friday]....4th, 5th, and 6th graders.
I'm not even nervous about the teaching part...I'm nervous about the fact that we are supposed to be staying at random people's houses. People who we've never met before. People who are going to be in charge of making us meals, and driving us around. *sigh*
It should be nothing shy of interesting. Wish me luck!

I am always fearful that I am going to lose my down the drain.
Wow, I would have freaked out!
Oh yeah I'd totally be uncomfrotable staying at other people's house. I'm sure it will be a great learning experience for you. I'm glad you found your ring. I'd been crying!
well that was a close scare. I'm glad it all worked out.
I'm gonna need details on this trip of yours
Oooh glad you found it. I was totally paranoid about losing my ring when we got engaged but my wedding ring is a little tight so I wear that one over the top and it holds them both on!
yikes! glad you got it back!
