Valium or Xanax. For our honeymoon we flew from Chicago to Oahu and I slept almost the whole flight. It was a dream, but the plane was also big and cushy.

Re: What's fir supper?
A medifast friendly Taco Bake was dinner last night and it was SO DAMN GOOD I burned myself taking the bite right out of the oven. Im not sure yet for tonight, it depends what is thawed the best. It could be leftovers of Taco Bake though if nothing is thawed, or burgers without a bun. |

Re: what does it mean
Best is relative. The highest clarity grade there is would be FL, which is no internal inclusions and no external blemishes. An internally flawless just means no internal inclusions were visible to the grader. |

Re: Tacori Emerald Cut Reworked To Sit Flush With Wedding Ba
Well, other than the fact that he almost certainly totally voided your warranty with Tacori, if you're happy with it, great. It is not a method I would have probably gone with though to make the flush fit work. I would've asked Tacori to raise the head entirely. |

Re: Tiffany Solitaire Comparison
Tiffany's selects / cuts stones fairly deep. They lose a lot of the spread (diameter) they should have for their carat weight, so you pay for a 1.5 carat stone and it's really the size of a 1.35ct stone. For the price, you can do SO much better than Tiffanys. |
