Shiny

[bertine]

Sometimes I find myself staring at my engagement ring because it is so shiny in the light. I never realized how pretty diamonds are.

If you click the little smiley face next to the subject bar it opens another box full of icons. One of them is a thumbs up.

Aaaaaah, thank you.

I KNEW IT.

You've turned into my fiancee

I didn't want to say anything when I read your comment a few days ago about how C likes bling now but it is sort of true.

[sacramentalist.livejournal.com]

It's totally true. Why do you think that is? You get to feel girly?

[bertine.livejournal.com]

Maybe, I am not sure. I just know that it makes me happy to look at.

I tell people all the time I would love diamonds even if they were free. No one ever believes me.

I am not a person that ever thought I could care about diamonds but wow, I get it now. I don't think I have ever had anything that shines so much. Even the little stones on the side are shiny. I don't even have a huge setting like some of my friend have (and I wouldn't want one because this one is a good size for me).

I'm pretty sure if I'd had a Live Journal in 1997, I would have written this exact same post.

Also make sure to take it in the sun, diamonds so much sparkly-er in the sun.

My fiancee claims the grocery store is the best venue (all those bright point-light sources bring out the sparkle)

[scentedwoods.livejournal.com]

Nope -- ball game.

She says you're right. Last summer she and a friend were hypnotized by their rings at a baseball tournament.

Once upon a time I was at a seat behind Tonya Puckett and I barely saw anything on the field. I was blinded!

That is where I was looking at it today. I went to lunch with my coworkers and was looking at it. They made fun of me!

I still think diamonds are boring. I mean there's no colour! Give me a sapphire or tanzanite anytime.

Also I'm a big fan of lab-grown gems.

[bertine.livejournal.com]

Have you seen one in the sun? They have a sparkle that I couldn't believe!

I have seen some lab grown rubies that are really pretty.

[sterlingphoenix.livejournal.com]

I've taken macro shots of them in the sun!

There's nothing wrong with enjoying your beautiful ring!

I used to stare at my engagement ring all the time. :)

Hop in the car on a sunny day and you might see all the reflected light on the roof of the car! Diamonds are quite pretty. Enjoy!
