Casandra: On The Rings

Captain's Log... January 29th...

Today a nice little bobble came in the mail. Glistening, metallic, and circular.
I'm thinking that perhaps this would look good on my ring finger. Perhaps the ring finger of my left hand?

My wedding band has arrived :) I'm pretty darn stoked about it!

18K white gold pipecut band... Oh yeah. Very simple. It won't detract from the emerald that I will eventually get. Again, not an engagement ring. But more along the lines of a First Anniversary "We Made it a Year and I Haven't Pissed Her Off to the Point of Having This Thing Annulled" Ring.

I'm holding true to the sentiment that the second wife always gets better shit than the first one. Besides... he actually loves me. Of course those that know me are aware that I'm particularly partial to emeralds. Diamonds just don't tickle me where I pee. We picked out the band and the First Anniversary Ring together. The FAR is exquisite. So much to the point that I think I'll actually be afraid to wear it. Especially since it is, quite frankly, considerably more than we've paid for the wedding portion of the New Orleans vacation.

He got off easy on the band. Not so much on the First Anniversary Ring. I'm worth it and he's hard to have around all the time. Consider it a fee of sorts for putting up with his ass.

Kidding, Mack. You know I love that ring... I mean you.

Tomorrow I have procured the day off from work so that we can take care of some details. Such as having the rings sized appropriately, obtaining a notarized copy of my divorce decree, getting my tax stuff together and filed, and finally looking for some luggage that will be appropriate for two people times ten days. A Wednesday off basically just for the hell of it.
