It was the same place (same sink where I removed it to wash my hands) that I had lost my high school senior ring only three months prior.

When the Marine!Goth had his grad ring lost (or possibly lifted) at MCT, she helped me get a replacement to him. I was only at MCRD for three days when the boy graduated, but I can picture so many of the places in my mind that it's positively scary!

I only had one pair of trou left (expecting an inch-and-a-half hemming job to take LESS than a month to complete) on the day I spilled a quart of milk on myself, then poured water on my leathers, and then banged into a trash can and spilled garbage all over myself...all in a span of five minutes.
