Oh, Bashful, I wasn't thinking you had said it was pathetic to have the mementos - I was more thinking, that some other people I know WOULD think it was weird.
I just wanted you to NOT think it was pathetic or weird that you were missing T or that you wanted a memento or something. Because it's not and you're not.
You weren't tactless or inconsiderate .... nothing to bop your head against the wall for!
I'd say, get yourself those charms and give yourself permission to assign to them whatever all meaning you want to assign to them ... something to do with T (eh, pun ) and/or anything you want.
