[QUOTE="Pielorinho, post: 483499, member: 259"] Take it from this poor sap -- INSURE THE SUCKER! I proposed about six months ago. My sweetie said yes, but that she didn't want to go public with the engagement until she'd finished grad school and found a job. Otherwise, there'd be too much stuff going on. I agreed, and agreed to hold on to the (kind of expensive, for me) ring until other stuff had calmed down. A month or two later, I moved, taking the ring with me. Last month, we decided it was about time to let folks know, so I went to dig the ring out of the box it was in. [b]AND IT WAS GONE![/b] I've spent hours searching for that little tweaker, but it's nowhere to be found. My best guess is that somewhere in a cave, a misshapen figure is fondling it, saying over and over, "My precioussssss...." Sigh. We're going ring-shopping again soon. :( On the other hand, mooby, yay us! Engagement! Woo hoo! Daniel [/QUOTE]
