what can make a case of the swine flu seem less than sucky? an AWESOME custom ring!
my friend erin (the 'e' of 'e + j') finally got her engagement ring. joe actually asked her to marry him in november and would have had a ring sooner, but you can't just go to the diamond store and pick out a solitaire for erin. no, actually she needed something awesome, funky, elegant, and timeless. quite like she is.
so this ring has a history. a long time ago, erin & i went to the county fair in georgia (think rickety ferris wheels and giant turkey legs). there were booths of junk jewelry and erin decided she needed to drop $35 on a tiffany's replica. ok, so i thought that was a lot, but seeing how she's worn it almost daily for the past 4 or 5 years, repaired it, replated it, and used it as a stand-in engagement ring for the past few months, i would say it was worth the money.
she & joe had a real engagement ring designed from the replica and while i haven't seen it in person, it is stunning in the photograph! can't wait for their wedding sometime this year!

Carrie! You're too sweet :) I love the ring too and a cool upside is that not only does it remind me of Joe but also of our fun times together.
