About 40 years ago I was working on a battery on a 2+2 and accidentally welded my wedding ring to a 9/16" wrench (it didn't take long to do it). It took a long time for the burnt skin around my ring ringer to heal, I still have a nice scar. I haven't wore my wedding ring since, I would have to get it resized anyway.

A couple of years after the battery accident, my wife and I attended a Minnesota Twins baseball game in the twin cities. My wife and I had been married for about 7 years and at the time we had left our 4 year old daughter home with G&Gma and my wife was about 8 months pregnant with our 2nd child. Lets just say she was great with child. My wife wasn't wearing her wedding rings either because her hands were swollen at the time and I wasn't wearing mine either. In the later innings of the game, I noticed the elderly lady who happened to be sitting next to me REALLY looking at us, checking us out. It kinda puzzled me why she was so obviously checking us out and I realized that she was looking for wedding rings on our fingers. I leaned over to my wife and in a loud whisper said "maybe we should get married"???. My wife, bless her heart, knew nothing of what I was doing and could not have better job if she had practiced said "NO". My "for the kid" got another "NO!!!" I never did explain to the old lady that we had already been married for 7 years..
