With This Ring...

So my fiance and I recently started shopping for our wedding bands. Since I try to protect the innocent and the guilty I will give him the name Fabio. Last week, Fabio and I were out shopping for curtains for his house and while we were in the mall (a place he only goes in December), I said we should check out some wedding bands. Prior to our trip, Snarky had helpfully suggested that Fabio get a wedding band with a lot of bling. He immediately countered that he would get one with an emerald, amethyst and ruby so that it could look like a stop light. I felt like this project might take a while.

As we enter the jewelry store, this young, enthusiastic sales person is on her way to greet us when Fabio exclaims "I could get one that looks like a super bowl ring!". This became one of those moments when I wished it was socially acceptable to take pictures of strangers in public. She couldn't tell if he was being serious or how I was going to respond. Without any warning, her day just got a little crazier. From that moment she proceeded with great caution until she realized that he was just kidding around. Although Fabio doesn't like to shop, I have learned that he does have pretty good taste. After all, he did choose me.
