Well I'm not sure when I'll be getting married. I don't want to get married without a wedding ring. I know it's weird I'll get married in a court room, hold the reception almost a year later and not invite anyone except my mom and yet I want a wedding ring before we do it. It's one of my quirks, love me in spite of it. XD My boyfriend...I mean my fiancé and I are going to a jeweler after work today to for him to see what black Titanium looks like and to see if he really likes the look or if he wants something else. I'm still working on my sketches for my ring. I've drawn 4 different ones so far and yet I'm still not satisfied. There's something missing. I'm hoping by tomorrow I'll have the drawing done though so I can get the quotes I need on it.

My mom will need 2 days notice for when we plan to get married so she can make sure she has her class set up for a sub. When I let her know I'll also let my boss know. He wants to plan something and make a big deal out of it. It's a big deal, but I guess to me it's just making something that both my fiancé and I have felt and known since we got together legal and real in the eyes of everyone else. Well except for my fiancé's co-worker's, it seems they've always considered me his wife. XD I also am sure my co-workers feel the same way.

I found out from my mom this weekend that she paid over 10 grand for my sister's wedding! I mean that's over 5 grand for each year that marriage lasted!! My mom asked if I was upset that she was only going to help pay for part of the reception. I ask why would I be upset since she only paid for half of my sister's wedding. That's when she told me how much she paid. I was stunned. She then said that my fiancé and my relationship is very different then my sister when she got married. I couldn't help, but make my normal smartass comment, "You mean the fact we're committed for life?" I knew what she meant, but if we had known she would have paid that much for our wedding we would have gotten married much sooner. We weren't in a hurry since I thought she paid no more then 3 grand for my sister's wedding and until recently I did want a full blown wedding. I did say it would be nice if she could help with my ring if it's a bit more expensive then we expect. I REALLY want an Alexandrite and 2 Emeralds in my ring. The Alexandrite represents my fiancé, it's his birthstone. Emeralds are known as the gem of Love, green is the color for Venus the Roman Goddess of Love.

In other news Fangli and Suke broke down, waved their white flag and gave me their list of manga for their birthday. XD MUWAHAHAHA! I had to give them my new address, but I think it's well worth it. At first they only gave me two titles, but I told them it was supposed to be two each, not two total so they coughed up the other two today. I'll put in my order sometime this week. They'll be getting a very early birthday gift, but I'm not going to make them wait since that seems rather silly if you ask me.

Oh yeah, silver... I used to call him my fiancé, but then people would ask questions. When's the wedding? Where's the ring? How long have you been together? We never knew a date, just season. I've always wanted a spring wedding. I never wanted an engagement ring. At one point we almost bought a ring, but they didn't have it in white gold and I dislike yellow gold. It brings out the yellow color in my skin. As for the last question... Well since we knew we were going to get married since we started going out within the first 6 months they said it was too soon. Between 6 months and 2 years they said I needed to set a date or he'd leave me and it doesn't count. After the 2nd year they were confused. How can two people who have planned on getting married, are living together and behaving like they are married still unsure of when they will get married? People are really too paranoid. We all know setting a wedding date will just put a collar around his neck and he'll be mine forever! MUWAHAHA! Please... /rolls eyes So I quit calling him my fiancé and stuck with boyfriend. People don't ask questions or give me the "she's in a dead end relationship and doesn't realize it" look. heheh XD Now it's just out of habit, even though as soon as we have the rings we'll get married. I will try my best from now on to call him fiancé and when we get married husband. Man will that be weird for me!!

Poop on a stick I say! Well it's coming close to when my boyfriend and I will get married. We're very unconventional so this didn't surprise my mom. Then again I've mentioned it a few times before. We also will not be having the reception now. We're going to wait until next spring so my favorite Aunt can come. I can't imagine holding the reception without her. While we haven't always seen eye to eye who does? We aren't inviting anyone except my mom to the wedding. I would invite my boyfriend's mom, but we both know then she'll start telling us we need to invite his brothers and father and blah blah blah. Since we don't want to have to deal with that we're just not going to tell her. It's her fault for being so pushing and manipulative and she brings it all on herself really.

I found out the ins and outs for what needs to be done. After speaking with Matt we'll probably just get married in court instead of finding a priest. I don't care either way. For the first 7 years I fought with my boyfriend on him "having" to wear a wedding ring. I quit bugging him about it for the last year. He doesn't like jewelry and didn't want to wear a ring. Yesterday I tell him that I do not care if he wears one or not. It's completely up to him. To my surprise he said that he'd wear one. When I questioned why when for years he said no he said he wanted to. It took him a while, but he found a ring he liked. It's Black Titanium with a white gold stripe down the middle. It looks very nice. I searched high and low only to find out that Titanium melts at such a high temperature that no one except those able to manufacture Titanium rings can alter it. Since we can't have it altered or custom made I told him to just buy it online tonight. Today after work I'm going to a jewelry store, one of the couple that have actually heard of black gold to see if they can make something for me.

I doubt it will be a "one of a kind" since it's probably been done before, but "eh". I don't want to buy something that someone can pick out of a catalog. Don't get me wrong. That's fine for some people. I hope they like their ring. To me it needs to be more. When I get the ring I'll take a picture and post it for you guys to see. It won't be anything fancy since we can't afford anything really nice or anything, but it will be unique and special to me. It's just poop on a stick that I can't get my band part of the ring in black Titanium and white gold like my boyfriend's ring.
