I love jewellry but I'm not too attached to the thought of an engagement ring. <br /><br />I just have a fantasy ring I think "oooh pretty" but I'm not real tied to the idea of getting one.<br /><br />I suppose I just feel that I'm at the beginning of my career and I'd HATE it if the tradition went the other way and I was expected to buy something like that because Jeebus Christ, after rent, student loans, bills and savings I have, seriously, about $200 in my bank account and I just feel guilty demanding that of a man. Though in my case, I AM expected to pony up a ring for the guy at engagement...but most desis very rarely ever wear them. I think my brother's is sitting in my mom's safety deposit box with her jewellry.Monkey McWearingChapshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01159146850159129520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19036375.post-69595774029616383632007-01-10T18:04:00.000-07:002007-01-10T18:04:00.000-07:00I love the way star sapphires look but they're alw...I love the way star sapphires look but they're always really expensive when set (especially one that big!) We saw some beauties at the gem show, though no purple ones. We did see a beautiful steel blue spinell that rocked. If you're ring shopping for a colored stone, it might be a good idea to shop at a gem show, because they sell loose ones, too, and also the rings were at least half the price of the ones in most jewelry stores. Plus, they were way more interesting than just the standard cultured emerald, ruby, blue sapphire, and amethyst.MLEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09301902783411290755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19036375.post-19544680624073424302007-01-10T17:42:00.000-07:002007-01-10T17:42:00.000-07:00I want a coloured sapphire as an engagement ring-e...I want a coloured sapphire as an engagement ring-either a pink, padparascha purple star or a yellow. <br /><br />Actually this is the ring I want<br /><br />http://www.jewelryexpert.com/CATALOG/Star-Sapphire-Ring-ll-fc.htm <br /><br />I like the setting and the stone. <br /><br />But, if I marry some po ph.d I'll just settle for a platinum band.

The pizza we had was good, though. Portabella mushrooms, red bell pepper, and garlic chicken, I think. I inhaled it too fast to really pay attention.MLEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09301902783411290755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19036375.post-22076368682289623062007-01-10T16:44:00.000-07:002007-01-10T16:44:00.000-07:00I didn't get your call until Saturday night!
