I LOVE YOU WIFEY! Leave the wedding ring at home I say, to many chances for it to get lost/fucked up/stolen in BCT. Man, I'm really going to miss talking to you :( If you can, send me your BCT address so I can write you letters and send you colored drawings that Ryan did lol. If you cant send it to me I'll get it from James. Oh, did I mention I LOVE YOU? <3 Good luck hun *hugs*

Thanks Kate! Also, that dress you bought the other day was fucking STELLAR.

GOOD LUCK! And I second the leaving the wedding band at home - maybe go pick up a cheap one from one of the mall jewelry stands. (hell, my ACTUAL wedding ring cost $17 - we were poor. We intend to get new ones someday.)

But yeah, if it's expensive, I'd definitely leave it at home. If you're concerned about wanting one at BCT, you can get a nice looking ring at the mall stands for under $20. And then if you get it fucked up, who cares? It cost you under 20 bucks! You'll be less stressed because you won't be worried about your ring. Of course that's in the US, I don't know if they have stands like that in German malls...

The Germans don't even HAVE malls. haha

Thanks, darling. :)

There's a Mall of Ridiculous Dimensions in Essen, actually.

Not that that's a good enough reason to go to Essen, but just as a point of information. ;c)

LOL In the parts of Bavaria and Germany I have been to, these things do not exist. Now I might have to go to Essen for shits and giggles.

wear it.

crossbonestyle July 19 2010, 18:56:27 UTC

Did Martin wear his?

olivetree July 19 2010, 19:00:07 UTC

yup. but ours are tungsten, which are nigh indestructable-- after all, I wanted his to withstand digging, which is not for manucured hands.

crossbonestyle July 19 2010, 19:09:11 UTC

ours are gold. We didn't want such a strong metal with ours. In the lines of work we are pursuing, de-gloving of the fingers/hand injuries are fairly common.
