Friday night I picked up Vin from work and we headed to republic for some dinner. Then headed to petco for some more toys and shampoos for the spoiled baby at home. I feel guilty that he is home a lot but he really does not do well around other dogs or on the train for that matter.
While I figured everyone would be on spideys tip this weekend Vin and I decided to head to the MET for the new roman galleries.
We also went to look at rings, yes!!!! I said we went to look at rings (he still hasn’t asked me yet) and here is the story behind why. Several months back Vin's mom gave vin her old wedding ring, it was a small yellow gold ring with three diamond stones in the center. What does he do, he puts it on his keychain right next to the ring I gave him when we first met. His idea was to get the ring set in a different metal (I don’t wear yellow gold) and give it to me as a promise ring. So wouldn’t you know it he lost his keys and with that both rings, I tore the place apart looking and trying to find where he lost them. He lost them before we went on vacation and by the time we came back it was to late. So this weekend we were stopping by shops to see different designs and maybe customize one, this baby girl does not do off the rack solitaires. I was happy that he was looking since he really does not know his 3 C's or anything else about jewelry. I think he thought I was going to go for this massive ring and I wasn’t really looking at those. Not that I wasn’t interested its just that my hand is small and I would be really afraid of losing something like that.
I am leaning towards more of an antique style rings.
Then I know this part is going to take a long time, its like which one do I choose? I also sorta (but not really) feel guilty about spending 10g on a ring, I mean I feel I am worth it. Well at least I know I am going to take my time in deciding because we are supposed to go car shopping like next month. Honestly I feel like I cant breath when I am looking at rings so many choices and which one do I pick. At least with a car you can trade it in or sell it if you get tired of it in a few years but with a ring you will be staring at it for the rest of your life (Pressure). Then watching all these wedding shows my wedding will at least be 80k which is nothing really. My colors will be cantaloupe and honeydew and have a very tropical feel. We had wanted a destination wedding but my grandma cant fly with her health being the way it is and neither can his dad. The idea is to have a small wedding inviting 120 and hopefully have 80 show up and also no children under 10 will be allowed to attend. I am sorry but I would like to hear my ceremony not some bratty ass misbehaved kid crying in the back.
