Teddy

I have this teddy bear that has been with me, well...since birth. He's actually almost 34 years old, cause he was handed down to me from my cousin Raj. "Teddy" as he is properly named, has gone through pretty much everything with me. He himself though, has gone through his own little adventures.

When I was in the 4th grade, we lived in an apartment in New Providence, NJ. One day, while playing in the bathroom (um yea I don't know why I was playing there), Teddy had a small accident. Somehow I fumbled and dropped him in the toilet! Super scared that my mom was going to throw Teddy away after realizing where he had just been, I totally lied. "He fell in the sink mommy!" Hmm my mom didn't seem too convinced. Obviously. Teddy was soaking wet and well, let's just say, the sink doesn't really carry as much water as a toilet.
Disclaimer: the toilet had NOT been used thank you.
Later on however, I found out that my mom had put Teddy through the rinse cycle and properly cleaned him. Poor teddy.

Last year, when I was living in Philly, Teddy came along. One week, our housekeeping staff came by to replace our sheets and give us new towels. When I came home though, I found that I couldn't find Teddy anywhere! I sent out an email to my girlfriends who had just spent the weekend with me to see if there was any devious kidnapping going on.
