I lost my engagement ring -- and secretly replaced it at Wal-Mart

My fiancé's family knows what I did, and I'm embarrassed and ashamed.

    Excellent

    Ah Cary....

    What a brilliant bit of advice that was. I can't imagine anything your rogue gallery can contribute to it, but I will check it out.

    To the lady of the lost ring---do stop wearing the cheap substitute, maybe even include the "loss" of the "fake" in some ritual involving water--the toilet comes to mind. But whatever the issue the fiance's having regarding the original & its accidental loss must be addressed before the marriage, I wholeheartedly agree....this is important & will be interesting discovery for you. Good Luck to you.

    Cary, the muse of myth & poetry was on your shoulder this day.
