Yesterday morning, I sat staring at the bathroom door, absolutely perplexed. Mind you, this is not a common occurrence for me. I've been showering regularly for over twenty years. I pretty much know what I'm doing.
But now I have this ring. And this ring adds a new dimension to showering. Now the decision is not just about cleanliness, but about risk management. Do I shower with it on and risk wear? Or do I risk losing or forgetting if I take it off?
Well, with my track record for losing jewelry, I think I'll leave it on for now. I think the probability of me losing the ring because I took it off is infinitely greater than the probability of the stone wriggling loose and washing down the drain.
But after a 30 minute internal debate (and a consultation with another engaged person) I'm wondering why my ring didn't come with an owner's manual.
whoa, i didn't know you had a blog on this. very cool!
ReplyDeleteDiggin' the pseudocode.
ReplyDeletedefinitely less costly (monetarily and emotionally) to get the ring cleaned and recoated than getting a new ring :)
ReplyDeleteInvest in a drain catcher (it's a few dollars). Then if it ever falls off in the shower, it won't go down the drain.
ReplyDeletei ALWAYS wear my rings... i don't trust myself to take them off and remember to put them back on. :p
