Mayor ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I have slightly more than a year's worth of accumulated clutter, which may in fact outweigh me by this point. Most of it is probably redundant paper trash, but I don't want to start something unless I have the weeks to devote to sifting through it properly.
Besides, I use the effective Archaeology Method of paper filing (the deeper you go into a pile of paper, the older the papers become).
I had to move the entertainment center around this morning for the cable guy to get behind it, and the amount of dust frightened me. It may be time to break out the Swiffer dusting mitts.
Congratulations CV!!!
when the wedding band is added, I'll just wear the engagement ring on my right hand!
This is what I do, and the only weird thing about it is that when people say "What a beautiful ring" I feel compelled to tell them "It's my engagement ring," because that's a big part of what makes it so beautiful to me, and then they go, "Oh! Congratulations!" and there's an awkward moment when I say, "Oh, um, no--we're already married. It's just. Um. That's my engagement ring." Then I feel crazy and they're sorry they asked. So when people compliment you just say THANK YOU full stop.

And BEEP. Don't forget to BEEP.
Well, that's just taken for granted.
multipurpose gift certificates are the best!
Looking for a hotel in London is making me batty.
Now I want to say BEEP.
Best Wishes, CV, and congratulations to Ross! I love the "nontraditional" engagement ring. Mine was a chunk of turquoise set in silver that DH carved a band for out of dense cherry wood, and inset the brooch. For our 13th anniversary, we had my mom's diamond solitaire reset, but I never wear it. The wedding band I love is hallmarked Irish sterling, with a cabochon moonstone in a yellow gold bezel, bracketed with spirals--they're applied siver wire, one unbroken strand that encircles the band from one spiral to the other. It's full of symbolism for us, and was a 20th anniversary gift. DeBeers isn't anywhere in it.l
Wait a minute. I'm totally behind! Rio? And Bob? Married?
Totes.
