Guys,

I've been wondering,

Do you own anything that could have come from Middle Earth?

For example, my boyfriend thinks I'm a huge dork for even admitting this, but I do actually own an "elvish" ring. My friend claims to have bought it for me on the steets of Kathmandu (she's Nepalese), but I know the truth! The ring is incredibly light, and yet it appears to be made of tougher material than any of my other, supposedly more glamorous jewerly. And it's a cross between whimsical and clean and simple - almost as if someone looked at those Alan Lee illustrations and decided, "I'll design jewerly like that!"

I wear it for good luck, particularly on Mondays, when I am in a homicidal mood. It helps.

Here's a little picture of me with it. You can't see the details very well, but I imagine you get the gist:
