JCJD, if you really want to drool, go to www.danielk.net and go to the bridal collection gallery where there should be a picture of his "U-ternity" band, all made with little asschers!!!! It''s really beyond compare--I saw a version of it w/ EC when we went to look at Daniel K stuff. It''s kind of overwhelming--I tried that puppy on my hand and it was like there was a mirrored chandalier on my finger!! (I can''t figure out how to copy a pic from there b/c it''s "flash" whatever that means.)

JCJD, you are dead-on with that: it's like a sparkly, shiny car wreck!!!
Lovey, your dream dress sounds-well-dreamy!!!! YUM!
Good for you for Oct. 05. BF and I were having the date convo. yesterday and realizing that 2005 may not happen...neither of us wants a holiday/winter wedding, so either we get engaged REALLLLY soon and manage Oct. or early Nov., or it's more likely April/May 2006.

Diamonds4Me...Yes, I do have you beat by a little. A lot of people have been surprised at our age difference...and we have talked about it a lot to make sure it''s not an issue. But I guess love does not know any age limits. He looks younger than his age (most people think he''s in his late 30s) but even that doesn''t matter. It is kind of weird though...his ex graduated from high school the year I was born! (She was older than him.) But the age difference is fun....we get to show each other a bit of a different world since we remember the decades differently. One of the funniest is remakes of songs...there will be some 80s song on (my hs years) and he''s like, "oh, yeah that was a remake from the late 60s...so and so did it." I usually had no idea.

Trust me, i''ll post as many as people want to see! I''m already thinking about how i am going to write everything, how i''m going to take the pictures, etc!! If i could wave my magic little wand and krinkle my little nose and make it tomorrow, i would!! But, he is dead set on surprising me, and also trying to make sure i''ve forgotten what the ring really looks like so i''ll fall in love with it all over again! I definitely remember what it looks like, but its been 5 1/2 months since i''ve seen it, so i think i''ve probably forgotten a few details! Thanks for mentioning it -- i can''t wait to share with everyone who''s been gracious enough to share with me!
but seriously, now would be great!! killing me...............

Jennyt – what an awesome idea!!
About The Couple:

2. BFs Age: Just turned 38
3. How Long Have You Been Dating: 3 years on July 9, 2005 (Met June 28, 2002; First date July 4, 2002)
4. Any Idea On When The Proposal Will Happen?: Sometime after the ordered ring arrives... Hopefully before the end of the summer!!!
5. Does He Know That You''re READY?: Absolutely!!
Your Ring Preferences:
1. Size: At least 1.5 carats
2. Shape: Square Cushion or Princess
3. Color: H or Above
4. Cut: Not sure
5. Clarity: VS2 or Above, at least Eye Clean
6. Setting: 18K Yellow Gold with side stones
7. Are You/Will You Be Involved In The Stone/Ring Selection?: Our rings have already been ordered... mine will be delivered to him so he and ONLY he knows when it arrives so the proposal will still be a surprise and his will be delivered to me.
The Wedding:
1. Any Planning Already Done?: A few tentative ideas of what I want… Definitely
at home in NYC!!
2. Ideal Wedding Date: Either Fall 2006 or Early Spring 2007… I’m not in a rush (anymore). We’ve been together for almost three years and have experienced so much that I feel as though we’ve been married at least 10 years. Plus, since we’re going to be married “Until Death Do Us Part” (no such thing as the D-Word in either of our vocabulary) and we’ll be paying for the wedding ourselves, I want to save up and have a nice wedding.
3. Big Wedding/Small Wedding: It will be an Afternoon or Early Evening Church Wedding… Between 70-100 people.
4. Dream Dress: My dream dress is a discontinued gown by Demetrious…
Other than that, my dress will have some lace and my veil will be floor length and lacy (It’s the Catholic school girl in me…
5. Dream Honeymoon Location: I want warm weather, he wants cold, but since we live in Houston (VERY Hot Weather
