I'm engaged!

Well okay, to be completely honest I've been technically engaged since Sunday when Mason actually asked me, but yesterday we went out and picked my ring and now I'm officially engaged~! I'm so excited! Look at my pretty ring, it's sparkly! Look look look!


Sadly it's a cellphone picture and not great quality, but use your imagination and replace all of the blurry fuzzines with shiny sparkles! (Better pic here from the store website.) I love it, it's different from your old style traditional ring and it's all cute and swirly~ X3 And it actually comes as a set with both the fancy engagement ring part and then the lower simple wedding band half. ARGH but the jewelers called today and told me they can't size it down enough to fit me so they have to order in a custom sized one, so instead of picking it up today I won't get it for four weeks. ;_; Nooooooo, damn you, tiny dainty fingers! Good for piano playing, horrible for rings! The clerk said something about letting me have the original one for the time being though with some sort of temporary "sizing bar" in it, and then when mine comes in I can just swap it.

It was a very strange feeling at first knowing I was engaged. Mason and I agreed not to tell anyone until we'd gotten a ring, so I spent two days almost bursting with news I couldn't tell and trying to hide my computer screen at work as I searched out jewelery stores; paranoid that anyone walking by my desk was probably thinking I was a very sad, desperate girl who spent her time pining away at engagement rings. ^^;

We haven't picked an exact date yet, but we're pretty sure it's going to be spring of 2011 -- maybe April or early May. That gives us a lot of time for planning and all the arrangement for the ceremony. I'm so excited for wedding planning~! *glee!* *Glomps her sweet Mason and promises that she will try her very best to not become a scary bride-zilla like on all of the reality TV wedding shows.* No, seriously, SLAP ME IF I DO.

La la la la laaaaa~
