INear Earphones

I hadn't tried these but then I got a free pair from the new BBerry that I got from work.  So I started to use them for listening to things throughout the day here at my desk.  At first it was a little uncomfortable, it sounded like I had my hands over my ears and could hear everything but in a muffly bassy type of way. 

I guess the only comparison I have to it is when you're underwater and you can still hear the sounds from what's going on above the water. 

Well these things go INSIDE of your ear for the most part and the little rubber bud part is replacable, they also have different sizes, which I actually switched to a smaller one since it didn't fit well with what was originally on the earphone.

As I was taking out the right earphone I noticed that it felt weird.  The thing is when you take them out of your ear, they make this sort of "popping" sound since it's almost a vacuum seal.  I looked at the earphone and saw that the rubber bud was missing ... but it didn't fall on the floor or anything.  It was still stuck in my ear!

I didn't know how to get it out, I was trying to fish it out with my fingers, but there was nothing I could grab onto where I could get a grip and take it out.  My coworker was just looking at me laughing, and I didn't want to ask him for help because I don't think he's stick his fingers in my ear.  So here I am in somewhat of panic mode, thinking this is going to fall in deeper or I might push it deeper.  I was looking for something that I could use as make shift tweezers, but nothing!  So I did the next logical thing to do ... I shook my head on the right side hoping to lossen it or move it just a little bit. 

That's exactly what happened, there was just enough movement where I was able to pinch my fingers to grab a little piece and pull it out.  For all those who were worried about me while reading this story, I'm alright!
