One more reason not to look forward to Monday morning....

My wedding ring fell off of my finger into the garbage chute at 7:30pm tonight as I was throwing away a couple of diapers. The key to the compacting room where it now lies will not be in until 8am tomorrow. In the meantime, 17 floors of 12 apartments each will have the opportunity to throw more trash away, which will subsequently be compacted by the machine into a giant cube. Somewhere in the middle, I will eventually find my ring. Hopefully *before* searching inside all the many diapers and trash bags to see if it got crammed in somewhere under all the pressure of the compacter.

Looks like I will be having a rather....aromatic....start to my day.
