Dont you think she would have liked this better? It's big and shiny, reflects light well, but a bit heavy for her finger....

Just went out last weekend and was going to the Hockey game. We decided to go to the mall first. Well, we never made it to the game. I wound up buying a diamond ring guard for my wife. She told me this evening that she needs one for the other side of her ring.

I always tell her, "You can't even drive it!!". Sometimes that works, sometimes it doesn't.
