Just moving on, suddenly gone and so unexpectedly

Sunday opened with a more disturbing nightstand event than Saturday had: bunny_hugger couldn't find her class ring.

( SPOILER: She found her class ring. While I attempted to find it, I didn't actually do anything which yielded ring location information.  )

It was all sweet, really sweet, and too short. It always is. Likely it always will be.

Trivia: Sir Walter Raleigh is known to have spelled his last name as Rawleyghe, Rawley, and Ralegh; colleagues and friends are on record as spelling it Ralo, Ralle, Raulie, Rawlegh, Rawlighe, Rawlye and at least sixty other variants. None seem to have used Raleigh. Source: The Book Of Numbers, William Hartston.

Currently Reading: America's Wars, Alan Axelrod. It purports to be a reference to all the wars fought within the territory which is currently the United States, with the reservation that it's awfully hard to document many of the wars between Indian nations from pre-Columbian times or that European colonists didn't notice (or have grounds to know about). Even with that limitation, though, it's quite the sweep through United States history.
