I have awarded Open Entreaty to the Guy Sitting Next to Me on the Train, Chuckling to Himself for the Last Seven Stops at Cover Your Mouth When You Blog as the (as far as I’m concerned) Perfect Post of January ’07. It gave me a huge chuckle, as it will you. It also made me wish I took the train to work. You just don’t find material like this sitting in traffic on the freeway.

My engagement ring is back on my finger. For two weeks, it was not. I left it in Wisconsin. No, I’m not a forgetful idiot, I left it there on purpose so that a jeweler there could design a wedding band to go with it. But last week, we got it back, along with a wax version of a possible band design.
While my finger was naked, I was more focused in general, not having the shiny thing to distract me. But I missed the constant reminder of what it symbolizes because when I look at it, the “oooh! sparkly!” reaction is instantly replaced by a sense of calm.
