The Missing Ring

Submitted by Tony Silva on Fri, 10/29/2010 - 4:37pm

When I looked down at my hand, I realized why something did not feel right. The ring I had worn for more than two decades was not there. The last I remembered seeing it was in the men's room a few hours earlier.

I had taken up the habit of moving the ring to the "pinky" finger whenever it felt too tight. It probably fell into the drain unnoticed in the confusion of a crowded facility and the rush to get back to work. Whatever the reason, I was without my most treasured posession -- my wedding ring.

Falling in love with Temperance Brennan

Submitted by Tony Silva on Fri, 10/29/2010 - 4:37pm

Every week, we watch the newest episode of the Fox drama, "Bones" -- and some weeks, we also watch re-runs of shows we missed before discovering this remarkable program.



For my aspie wife and I there is more to the show than meets the typical viewer's eye. While most people see the almost ever present sexual tension between the main characters, Temperance ("Bones") Brennan and Seeley Booth as a subplot for the show, the relationship between a woman with Asperger Syndrome and her neurotypical partner often hits home for me in other, more startling ways.
