Symmetry

When we got our wedding bands, we got simple, undecorated gold rings. Nothing etched in them, nothing set in them. Just plain gold bands. It's what seemed right; I particularly liked the idea that they didn't have any meaningful alignment.

But it occured to me recently that, as a side effect, my ring has infinite axes of rotational symmetry. Which is what I was going for in that first paragraph, but I hadn't really put the "i" word down on paper. Infinite. That's a whole lot of ring to be carrying around on my finger. What if some shaman or some jedi motherfucker or something wants to know which side is up? On pain of death?

Fuck.

Also, how can I tell if I have it on backwards?
