When I was shopping for engagement rings the saleswoman told me I wore the display size so I could walk out with anything in the store, but now I don't remember what size that is. Maybe 6.

That is weird, Liese, but a really nice kind of weird.

That is weird, Liese! Now I have to figure out if that's true for me and ... it has to be. I was 21 when I married him, and now I'm 44. Wow.

Also works for thigh chafing when it's summer, I am wearing a skirt and walking places with leg sweat.

Oooh, good catch. I totally could have used that a couple times this summer.

Rub it on your forehead! All the kids are doing it!

This is exactly the sort of thing I was always afraid the mean girls would try to get me to do and then laugh. I'm not really sure how bon would manage the laughing part, I guess maybe something in conjunction with the skype conversation?

My mother has given herself a year to sort me and my sister out.

Heh. Maybe she should aim for one per year. Although that would still make this your year, right?

A quick Google says the standard ring size for women is 7.

Yeah, I'm pretty much toast either way. Maybe it's best I share the spotlight, instead of receiving the solo glare.

I am so going to buy the luminising primer, because I want to GLOW.

You are also weird, Amy.

Proactively, other Buffistas may also be weird.

I am interested to find out how she goes about this sorting out, that's for sure. Should be an interesting year.

I was a young romantic, dear. Ahem.

I would like to know what "sort you out" means, specifically. I feel like I should make popcorn.

It does involve fornication, but that will never be stated.

I'd get the popcorn now, and get quite a stash.

As an old aromantic.

My mother has given herself a year to sort me and my sister out. One year! Both of us! It'll never happen

...sort you out how? Marriage and babies?

I tried on rings at a store in the airport the other week, because I was curious what size I wore. The 9, 8, and 7 all felt like they fit. Probably an 8.

When I had my wedding ring sized initially it was done by this little old jeweler dude. Think the key guy in the Matrix. Anyway, he was adamant that he could do this non-standard, but utterly perfect for me, sizing. So it's currently something like 5 3/16ths or something. So I kinda don't want to resize it. But seeing as how I had to have my other ring cut off and resized, I really should. Because then I could wear it.
