I think you should show her this thread and let her read all the nice things that people have said. Then when she reads it, maybe she will get the idea that she should buy you a fish tank as an engagement present.

Congrats Bronco!

And my condolences too!!

You may get your tank, but for sure you have set the stage for more rings to come. The problem is, they only get bigger from here. And I dont think the prices are going down on diamonds. Be sure you get the tank before the kids come. It is a beautiful ring. Good Job!

Shoulda got the the tank though.

Congrats, That is a beautiful ring. I am so sure she loves it... Funny thing, I am waiting for mine too but have my tank, not exactly the way I want it but still working on it. Hopefully it will grow on my man and I can get a bigger one in the future...

My priorities shifted from the newest quick change rear end, to The distressed Alder dining room set. But much more comfy now when eating "the Big piece of chicken"
Messin with ya, but something cool about the big piece of chicken that bach life cant match.
Oh and also wave goodbye to being able to actually sit and read in peace during the moring constitutional. The good ole days......

LOL!! And when your new dry spells hit all time highs, tell her that she will be saving your life by preventing prostate cancer. She can't argue with that- It's a fact!
