This is honestly really dumb but it gave me chills when it happened and I can’t stop thinking about it. Awhile back, I ordered a pack of 4 replacement earrings for my tragus piercing (it’s the little piece of cartilage shaped like a crescent moon in your ear).They are small metal bars with a diamond on the front & a backing. I put one in my ear, so that left 3 in the pack, & then I put the pack away in my jewelry box upstairs. I came home from work one day, and when I went to put my keys down on my entry way table, there was one of the very small tragus piercings laying there. I live alone btw. Confused, I checked my ear, & it was still in there, & then I went upstairs & checked my jewelry box, & the pack of 3 was still in there too. I picked it up to inspect it more, and in doing so, I accidentally dropped it and it rolled under my couch. I just let it go at that point because it was weird but I knew I had the extras. Months go by, like at least 5 or 6 months, and I come home from work one day to find the same tragus piercing bar on my entry way table again. In the same spot I found it months prior. I once again checked my ear & the extras upstairs, all were accounted for.

Could this be a glitch?
