This is my rock.

This is my souvenir of my wonderful first visit with J. He brought it down with him on his first trip so we could meet in person. The image engraved in the rock is the code that caused Yahoo! Messenger to make a hug emoticon. We used that code a lot in our chats online.

The rock is a joke too; when J ordered it, he thought he was ordering a pocket-sized worry stone. Instead, this rock is a hefty palm-sized piece. It’s perfect to hold, though, and it has a permanent spot on my nightstand. 🙂
