Lost my wedding rings
#5922514 - 08/01/06 05:24 PM (17 years, 5 months ago) |

I was at work yesterday, alone. I was doing a nail grinding on a freaky lab. The thing about the grinder is, I ALWAYS hurt myself with it. I'm making such an effort not to tag the dog with the spinning dremal that I always inadveratably end up grinding away my own flesh.
I wear my wedding rings around my neck, on a chain. Well, I was on my knees dremaling the dogs nails...when all of a sudden, my chain gets caught in the dremal.
And the rings go flying.
I still haven't found them. I know they're just a symbol, but still. I've had them for like, 3 years now. It's sad.

I'm sure they'll turn up. They couldn't have gone too far

I'm pretty sure they're gone. Nobody at work has seen them. The cleaning lady comes in at 6 am to vaccuum and buff the floors.

That makes me feel uncomfortable to imagine.

recently my friend asked me to remote view something his girlfriend lost.
we don't know if i got the location right yet (and may never know if its not found) but i was extremely proud of myself in describing it as "a metal circle like a key ring or something" it was her grandmother's wedding ring.

To be honest, now that they're gone, I'm wondering if I really needed them at all. What do I need a symbol of our love for? I don't need a reminder. I know. 
Plus...rings..it seems really traditional.

he's said, "they're just a symbol, honey. We'll get you some more rings."
But then it occured to me, "do I care that much if they're "just" a symbol?

True. But personally, I think I like that there is a physical object that connects you to someone you love. I dunno why.

neotical, if you don't believe me you're free to email him...
edit: he didn't tell me anything beforehand other than he wanted me to view something. out of all the objects in the world i feel a metal circle is pretty accurate to describe a ring...

Personally, I consider symbols important. In fact, I don't think there's much use in getting married in the first place if not for the symbolism of it.

We got married for the rights the government gives to married couples vs unmarried couples. We discussed not getting married at all, since labels aren't important to our relationship.
I'm saying I don't need a ring to remind myself that I'm married or that I love my husband.

But if he were to surprise me with one, I'd probably get all giddy and go nuts over it.
Because I like surprises.

Hehe, he's not that cheap. 
Everytime he's given me a ring, I've wept profusely out of sheer happiness that he thought of me!

He never visits the boards, only once every few weeks or so. He plays video games while I post.
