I feel nekid.

And sad.

For the first time since I got the rock, I forgot to put it on this morning. It's absence is palpable. In the early days of the engagement, the ring felt odd on my finger -- heavy and almost demanding attention.

Now, without it, my ring finger on my left hand is almost itchy and uncomfortably light. Just like when you lose a tooth and you can't help but continutally run over the gap with your tongue... my left hand feels needy and wanting. And nekid.

It's very strange.
