Unknown to me, Ryan was mowing the lawn. He comes in, distressed. "It's really gone this time!" Me: Huh? He has lost some weight. His wedding ring (we have a matching pair of black LOTR rings) flew off when he shook his hand, pinged off the fence and disappeared. He's searched. He'd raked. Gone. Now, we always said this would be no big deal. They're symbols, they're replaceable. But Ryan was upset.🧵
