My Precious Wedding Bands

A few weeks ago our wedding bands arrived in the mail from Bedrosian Jewelry up in Boston. We went and visited Carlo one weekend when we were home and because they had treated me so fairly when I bought Tracy's engagement ring we were more than happy to give them some return business.

Well after we placed the order Tracy checked the mail everyday with baited breath waiting for the rings to arrive. Once they did she was taken over by the beauty of her ring and I caught her at least twice a day wearing her wedding band around the apartment. Am I the only one who sees a slight problem with this? She confessed that when I was in Arizona she actually slept with it on.

While Gollum/Smeagol is a disgusting comparision to make it is way too fitting not to. She was honestly obsessed with having the ring on her finger and would make this werid smirk whenever she had it on.

Lucky for me Tracy left the rings with her father for safe keeping this past weekend so I don't need to worry anymore.

"My Precious"

Can You Dig It?

That is the team name of our recently formed indoor volleyball squad which is comprised of The Doyle's, Tracy and I and few others that were interested in doing something other than sitting around and wasting space. I've been working on my bump, set and spike techniques and we have practice this Sunday at 6AM. We are going to run 5 miles followed by a few hours of pick up matches against some local high school teams. Well not exactly as I'll be at Tommy Joe's with Chris for half priced apps and drink specials but ehhhh, who's keeping track.

Like Sinjin Smith, Randy Stoklos, Karch Kiraly and Kent Steffes dominated beach volleyball we are prepared to bring total domination to the Bethesda indoor volleyball circuit. In all seriousness I like to think that I can hold my own. In high school volleyball was actually a pretty popular game that we played on weekends at Cooch's house and had random tournaments throughout the school year that were a lot of fun and extremely competitive. My favorite memory from those tournaments was every team going to Building 19 1/2 and putting together their team unis from the bargain bins, with cheesy headbands and tight, crotch hugging shorts.

I'll have to apologize for the Photoshop job below, I was short on time and just whipped it together for effect. I'm not nearly as talented as some in these Photoshop contests.

Driving Miss Tracy

Tracy sold her car this past week which should be interesting now that we have one car between the two of us. We thought it made a lot of sense seeing as we both go to the same workplace everyday and we were coming and going in separate cars at pretty much the same time. It also made a lot of sense financially as we'll now be saving a few hundred bucks a month and with the wedding every little bit helps.

Where all of this leaves us is with Brian as Tracy's chauffeur for the foreseeable future.
