I am an idiot

let’s talk about some flair

by Mojito Maven on November 5, 2009

Let’s say, hypothetically speaking of course (cough, cough), that you were a complete idiot and lost your engagement ring.

Thankfully the insurance gods smiled down at you and accepted your claim. Now you have a pocket full of money and a shit ton of options as to what to do with it.

Would you…

A. Create an exact replica of your lost ring? Why?

B. Create an entirely different ring ? Why?

C. Take a combination of choices A and B and create the same setting with a little more flair? Why?

D. Upgrade your center stone in either size, clarity, or shape? Why?

Thoughts?

another year for the great pumpkin!

In light of recent events, I am not exactly in the most spirited of moods so please forgive my less than stellar attitude.

Thankfully my parents are coming into town tonight from Denver to celebrate Halloween and meet little Oliver. (Cross your fingers they can actually get out! It is currently blizzard conditions in Denver so hopefully their flight does not get canceled.)

We plan on having a low key Halloween spent at home with a home-cooked meal, trick-or-treaters, and scary movies.

Seeing as how Snoopy and the Peanuts gang are staples in the Mojito household, we thought it only fitting that we dress up Oliver as Charlie Brown for Halloween complete with CB’s signature t-shirt and a stuffed baseball to chew on! Pictures to come on Monday!

Ring update:

My engagement ring is still MIA. We have literally torn our house apart, called every place I have been in the last week, contacted the police, checked Oliver’s poop, taken Oliver to the vet to get x-rayed, and torn out my hair so I am now bald. We contacted the insurance company and are waiting for them to get in touch with us to start the claim process. Ugh, please pray it goes smoothly. I feel rather naked without my ring.

um, shit?

I cannot find my engagement ring. I took it off last night before bed and set it on my nightstand. Fast forward to this morning…POOF the ring is no where to be found.

I have literally torn my bedroom apart looking for it. My wedding band and David Yurman ring were still on the nightstand but no engagement ring.

Did a pixie fairy come steal it during the night?
Did Oliver eat it?
Did it grow little ring legs and run away?

I am going INSANE.

UMMMMMMMMMMMM SHIT! Thank goodness for insurance, BUT COME ON, where is it???????????

ETA: After recounting my steps it appears I did not wear my ring to work yesterday (apparently I thought I put it on out of habit but didn’t actually do so as Mr. M pointed out) nor did I wear it this past Thursday-Sunday (I was sick so I stayed in bed). The last time I remember wearing it was last Wednesday evening at Oliver’s puppy class where I think I may have taken it off and forgot to put it back on.

Did I mention I am an idiot?
