For my birthday this year I've made it clear to my family that I would like a ring or something to the birthstone effect for 'heirloom' purposes... let the games begin. Today, Ma and I went gem huntin' in the mall and out of all five corner jewelers we went to the least reliable and found a pretty lil' winner. On sale, ha ha, in all of it's tri-emerald glory... here's the catch, I do not want a synthetic emerald... picky, picky, I know, but I still want a dark colored stone. (The darker the natural emerald the more rare it is, that translates to 'puts a whole in your wallet') The ring we found was beautiful nonetheless, but the stones were very light in color... whatever, it's pretty and I want it.
Now for the death portion of my blog: everyone is dying. My mom's cousin croaked, my grandpa's brother passed away today, my great grandma is on the verge and my aunt has had death knocking on her door since she was first diagnosed with breast cancer. I am so glad that I've already come to terms with tragedy so far in my young life... just say a prayer for my fam, I don't know how many more sympathy wreaths we can afford to shell out.
