We spent all last weekend doing wedding stuff. It's the first time an entire weekend was
Namely, we discovered that MacGyver is worse than a 15 year old girl shopping for a prom dress when it comes to buying suits.
No, really.
Two days, several hours, and endless stores later, he has a suit. A pin striped, three piece suit in which he looks absolutely dashing. I'm so glad he found it, and I'm so glad we don't have to do that again for a very long time. And in the name of saving my impending marriage, that's all I'm going to say about that.
We also picked up MacGyver's ring while we were out. (And I got mine cleaned for the first time! It's so sparkly again!!) We narrowed it down to two different rings of very dramatically different styling. One was made out of cobalt, gray and rather shiny. It was classy and sophisticated, and suited him well. Then we found one that was made from titanium, but it was a charcoal gray. It looked very industrial, and we really liked it. It suited MacGyver nicely. But the more we thought about it, the titanium ring was more fitting for the 30-something year old MacGyver. We weren't sure it would look so classy on a 60+ something MacGyver. So we went with the first one. It's classy and timeless. MacGyver said he likes it enough that he might actually wear it!
Monday night we went out with friends for dinner, and after we came home MacGyver thought he'd try his suit on again just to make sure it fit well and to see how it looked with a dress shirt on underneath everything.
Did I mention he cleans up well? Eh hem. Anyway.
He put his ring on just for fun to see how it would look with the suit, and it FELL OFF HIS HAND.
No, actually it didn't just fall off. It fell off his hand and bounced all the way down the stairs. It's almost an entire ring size too big. In the store it fit perfectly. Apparently MacGyver had been mainlining the salt over the weekend and his fingers were swollen when we tried on rings.
I called the place this morning and they'll let us come back and exchange it. Until then MacGyver is on a no salt diet, just in case. I'm glad we checked this before the wedding. That would have been interesting.
