The other day, a certain bouncy kitten jumped onto a stack of stuff on my desk, sending it (and a kitty) flying across the room. After I got everything cleared up, I noticed that one of my favorite earrings was missing. D'oh.
Today as I was assessing storm damage outside, I picked up a clump of leaves off some flowers, and voila- there was the earring, pressed into the mud. Weird, but happy!
