Several weeks ago I was minding my own business, doing my laundry. I pulled the lint trap out of the dryer and heard a muffled clinking noise. Inside the fur-lined trap was one of my earrings, and I was instantly petrified with fear.
These earrings by themselves are slightly special, but not out of the ordinary: 14 karat gold posts with small cubic zirconium studs. But my ears are so sensitive, that sterling silver and 12 to 14k gold is all that I can wear without getting irritated in a couple hours. This half-pair of earrings sitting in my lint trap was one quarter of only two pairs of earrings in my possession that never bothered my ears. For some reason, I had taken off my earrings during the day and put them in the pocket of my pants.
I searched in every crack of the drier that I could reach for the other half of the pair, and in the washer, too. I never found it. After crying for about five seconds, I put the lone earring on my jewelry tray, thinking that the other was lost to the washer/dryer forever.
But last night something amazing happened! When I pulled the lint trap out of the dryer this time, I heard a pulse-quickening rattle. This time I was filled with positivity: could it be? It was! My other earring was returned to me at last! Every nook and cranny was filled with lint and the pair still requires a good cleaning (ironic, no?), but I have a complete set once more.
