A Mechanic and His Wedding Band...

...Are soon parted.

Bob lost his wedding band the other day at work! I was steamed but he whispered it to me while he was on the phone to his boss who was looking as he talked! His boss found it - in a glove that gets left on the fuel truck to be used by anyone who is refueling an airplane! I was relieved but needless to say, it now sits safe in my jewelery box. Where it will stay. He really shouldn't wear it anyway being in the hanger it could get caught on anything from a tool to a machine to some kind of engine parts. He's pretty disappointed. But he thinks he has found a solution to his problem.

He wants to get his wedding band tattooed on. I know most of you aren't really into tattoos but it's a way for him to show his commitment without the risk of losing his finger. And it seems logical for me to get one as well...we want to figure out exactly what we want to have done first. We want something simple but not just a black band either. And probably something that is small enough to be covered by our regular rings when we wear them - so it doesn't look goofy. They are actually supposed to be cheaper than a regular ring - averaging about $100, except they usually have to be touched up because the skin on your hands regenerate so often.

Anyway...just a couple of thoughts.
