My day started like this: (conversation via text message)
Me: Babe something horrible happened
BF: What?
Me: I dropped my earring down the sink :(
BF: SMH
Me: Babe I'm hella sad. Im getting a wrench at lunch. Im gonna have Manny take apart the sink :(
So for the next couple hours I was anxious as hell! At lunch I grabbed 2 of my dad's wrenchs. Brought back to work and put my lovely co workers to work! We took apart the sink, but because the sink curves I was still un-able to reach my earring. I stook a plastic fork, and a plastic spoon down the pipe but no luck...I ended up breaking the spoon. I texted the boyfriend in desperation:
Me: I really miss u...and u didn't even tell me u hope I get my earring out...
BF: I miss u too N u wld want get that damn earring out...u shldnt b so careless!
Yikes! The pressure was on! After consulting with the co workers,we decided we couldn't take apart the curvey pipe we decided we would have to saw it apart. Yea SAW it apart. This meant, I would have to pay for a plumber when it was all said and done. Wasn't really worried about that but I was desperate to get the earring my boyfriend had got me for our 1st Valentines back. My co worker went home to get his saw and I kept thinking of other ways to get out my precious earring out. I thought of using a paper clip and sticking gum at the end hoping that it would stick, when that didn't work my other co worker Jaunita came up with a BRILLIANT idea to use the paper clip and make a lil hook at the end. Annndddd it worked! I screamed sooooo loud! Though I was in the back of the store ever last customer in the front of the store heard me! I will never be that 'careless' again! Moral of the story: It's not the VALUE it's the SIGNIFICANCE that matters!
