Kicking and Screaming

My necklace broke today. It isn't anything fancy--only some beads on a string--but it kind of "finishes me". I think I bought it at American Eagle Outfitters for ten dollars more than six months ago, so I can easily replace it, but I was just at the mall, so we'll have to wait.

I didn't notice it right away, until mid-sentence with a superior, I feel this tickling sensation go down my chest and then land in the pit of my stomach. I was noticeably taken aback, as I didn't really know what to do. I finished my conversation and then dug through my shirt to get the remaining stray beads. That was 9:30 AM.

At three, after having assumed that all beads have been removed from the tucked-in part of my shirt, I walk across the office. during my trek, I proceed to lose twenty more beads sporadically. I lose ten near the elevator bank and take a tumble when I then slip on them. How ungodly embarrassing.

AE: get better string.

Comments:
I can just picture this incident. Thanks for making my morning better!
