That worked out better than I thought it would.

Monday I lost my cell phone.

I was pretty sure where I lost it, but the lost & found there hadn't found it yet yesterday.

Today I called them back and they went to look again. Couldn't find it. I mentioned that I had been ringing it so that it'd make noise and be easier to locate. They had me try again, and this time I could hear the ringtone in the background. I'll pick it up tomorrow (I don't think I can make it there before they close today).
