First, do any of you Brits know where I can buy something to stop my engagement ring slipping from my finger? It nearly came off yesterday and that's not a chance I want to take.

I've sucked at birthday's lately, I'm usually much better. So happy belated birthday to [livejournal.com profile] lincolnw, [livejournal.com profile] pierson and [livejournal.com profile] giogio. I hope you all had great days! However, I'm not late for Gill's birthday, so happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] satsuma77! I hope it's a great one full of the things and people you love.

James decided last night he wanted to go camping this weekend, that is despite it being the last bank holiday weekend of the year. He asked if I'd look up a site he's stayed at before, which was fine. What wasn't fine was hours later when I was still looking up sites, giving him numbers so he could phone and be told, sorry we're full. In the end it was easier to just let him use the computer himself, which sucked because I was actually doing something important instead of messing around as usual.

Talking of important, [livejournal.com profile] popstoryfinders came through for me yesterday about a story I wanted to read. I'd Googled it and searched the wayback machine for a long time before asking, knowing I'd get comments about the story I was asking for *g* But in the end I caved and asked, and someone knew, not only the story but the url for the whole nsyncangst site! Popstoryfinders rocks, man.

There's some cool memes going around. The first is a Snaps cup meme which is here. I hadn't heard of this until a few days ago but you go post your name and people then leave anonymous compliments, and really, there's no harm in that at all. Spreading a little joy is always a good thing. So go, look, see if you know anyone and leave a comment. It'll only take a few minutes but will result in a smile :)

ETA: [livejournal.com profile] jchalo is also running one, so go there too.

Second, [livejournal.com profile] llumi has this to say Post something in your journal, anything that makes you smile. Music, pictures, movie quotes, favorite books. Whatever. Don't friendslock it. Invite people to do the same. Not in comments but in their own journal for the world to see. We'll see what comes of it.
There's a lot of things I could have posted, but you know as much as I love fandom and the things involved with it,





Last, I uploaded Daniel Powter's Bad Day for Fi. There should be some downloads left on this yousendit link if anyone wants to check it out.

You know those dodgy catalouges that come with the sunday papers - full of 'bra extenders' and useful things for old people.

They do one, I think. It's sort of a plastic bit of rubber you attach to the back of the ring.

Have you got a fish tank? Fish tank air tubing would probably work as well.

Small piece, slit along the length, on the back of the ring.

Then, when you've lost all your weight, you get the ring resized.

Thanks for the birthday wishes

Love Corey's hair.

I do know those catalogues, but I also have a fish tank so could easily modify some tubing. That's a cool idea, thanks!

You're welcome for the birthday wishes :)

Corey's hair makes me laugh each time I see that picture *g*

Project is coming along fine btw.

you oculd always buy yourself a pretty but cheap smaller ring and wear that 'on top of' the engagement ring to hold it in place untill you're down to your target weight and ready to get your rings resized? That's what I did for several years - I only got round to getting them resized so the loose rings wouldn't swamp my wedding ring!

[OK, Lena really is psychic - just started playing Joey singing 'can I steal a little love' which is a song I associate with weddings and rings ;)]

Your son? Is adorable.

That could work too actually. It's a good excuse for a nice new ring too which is always of the good ;)

Your son? Is adorable.

Thank you! That was just before I met you for the first time, which wow, feels like a million years ago now.

Sorry, I don't know anything you could buy. That's really the bad side of losing weight, isn't it? I can't wear most of my rings anymore. *is sad*

Cute Corey! Hee.

Thank you!

You could try and get a plain gold band to put on your fingerin front of the engagement ring, to keep it from slipping off. Then, once you reach your target weight, you can have your engagement ring adjusted to fit you again.

Make sure you get the same carat gold. Gold is soft and if they aren't the same carat one'll wear the other down.

It sucks when they all start to slide off. Of course, it sucks because of a good thing but still, sucks.

Cute Corey! Hee.

Isn't he? *g*
