Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder

Today a lady came into the library wearing a huge diamond on her finger.  The engagement/wedding band set took up all the room from her palm to her first knuckle - I am not kidding.  The wedding band was covered with diamonds, and the rock on the engagement ring was probably 4 or 5 cts.  She was a very pleasant lady, and obviously a diamond connoisseur.  She noticed my new ring and said how beautiful it was.  She said that she could tell that it was a very high quality stone from the way it was shining.  I just smiled and thanked her.  $231 well spent.

    Ha! I don’t know how people lug around big jewels like that. They could take someone’s eye out if a fight broke out, as well.
