My Ring

After a mere two years of marriage, I noticed the diamond in my wedding ring was loose. So loose, that I worried one day I'd look down and the stone would be missing entirely. Mr X would probably have been furious if that had ever happened. So I took the obvious precaution: I quit wearing the ring at all and informed Mr X that I wouldn't wear it until it the diamond was properly secured. Four years later Mr X finally got it all taken care of and I get to wear my beautiful ring again. Woo hoo! (I just have to get used to it all over again now.)
