Precious

Tonight at the casino we were sitting near the Lord of the Rings-themed slot machines and it reminded me that when we got married back in 1978 we had "Precious" engraved inside Mr. Troutbend's wedding band. That was back when people were reading the trilogy, and for some reason we liked the sound of 'my precious.'

Inspired by the pictures on the slot tonight, Mr. Tbend took his ring off and was saying "My Preeeeecious" all creepy like in the movie and I hit him. The honeymoon is over, but he's still my precious as long as he doesn't talk like that.

Gary is precious.

Yes he is. I was at the garden center by myself and almost bought him a bush with red flowers for Valentine's Day but he'd have to plant it, so maybe not such a great gift.

That's sweet, I think!

Good thing he didn't drop dead on the spot, because it's wasn't the sweetest moment, sounded too creepy.

You've been married 30 years-plus -- how precious is that?
comment by tealstar on Feb 13, 2011 4:29 AM ()
Time sure flies, doesn't it? And I still don't know what he's going to do or say next some of the time. Other times we can read each others minds.

He got free candy from the casino in a heart-shaped box. How romantic.

Very funny!

I was sitting there thinking about how when those movies came out, you'd think we'd have been all over it, like millions of other people, seeing as how we were getting stuff engraved in rings, but nope, we didn't make that psychic connection with the movie.

It's pseudo-Spring Break here on the Strip, tons of young folks behaving badly. The weather's really nice.

Now I feel a little guilty about it, so I'll have to be nice for a day or two.
