I lost an earring in Adams Morgan/Rock Creek Park today

[Anonymous]

Ordinarily, I would let it go, but I never spend money on myself and this was a pair of earrings that I bought myself as a 50th birthday present. The setting is unique, and I bought them second hand, so I have no idea how I'd go about replacing the missing earring. I don't live in DC, so posting flyers is not something I can do. I've already posted on Craigslist lost and found. Is there any place else I can post?

Try emailing Dan at Popville (https://www.popville.com/contact/). The audience is broad around DC, but there are lots of readers in the Columbia Heights/Admo/Petworth area.

Good luck!

I lost my house key and club fob a few months ago - much bigger than an earring - and I view it as gone forever.

Good luck. Played a sport down on the mall where wedding rings were frequently lost-- then found!!! If you can figure out kind of a narrow area, will a metal detector pick it up?

That sucks, I’m sorry. Take the one you have to the tiny jewel box or pampillonia or Boone and sons and I’m sure they can make you a match.

I wish. I basically went for a 3-4 mile walk in Adams Morgan and Rock Creek Park today. A terrible day to lose and earring! (I did try to retrace my steps, but I didn't see anything.)

Thank you. I might just do this.

Once you pay for it, throw away the receipt and try to forget it happened.

Oh no! I’m so sorry. I hope you find it. Losing things really bugs me.

That's terrible. I lost a very nice diamond earring once. I never found it. Maybe just getting another made is the way to go.

OP here again. I live in Baltimore -- does anyone have a jeweler to recommend up here?

Never wear jewelry when exercising.

I like the advice.

When did you take your sweatshirt off? Look there.

I'm not trying to be funny, but you should try prayer. Whenever I lose something and pray to find it, it works.
