alack alack

  • Jun. 20th, 2009 at 2:44 AM

I had a lovely day with some friends from London, and we all trotted off to the Met so that, among other things, Fyodor and I could get to the serious business of buying our wedding rings.
These beautiful imperial russian inspired rings were sadly not the right size for my heathen accomplice's finger, but I spied a few minutes later something even more amazing - a Faberge stick-monocle on a golden chain. I thought, this would be perfect items for us to use as symbols of our union. Eccentric, beautiful, lens themed.
Then disaster struck. We went out with our merry throng to a diner for dinner, and somehow left our purchases behind. I called the diner not 10 minutes after we left, and they said they didn't have it.
I'm absolutely gutted. Such wonderful things, and a lot of money (to us) gone. And I certainly don't want him to use his new computer money to buy another set. And I can't cut into my medication money to pay for another set.
So I think the only course is to try to do as many drawings as possible to sell on here.
Ugh... gutted. And after so many of you were kind enough to support my comic, now I am in need of finds again. So watch out... I'll be posting a ton of art to sell tomorrow.

Sweethearts, I know it's not an ideal alternative, but if you would like to have something simple as a "placekeeper" until you have the funds available to repurchase your beautiful monicles, I can help you with that. The soul-draining industry I work in does give me some perks. I could help you with some simple, traditional bands for a very small amount of money and I will have them sized to fit you and engraved with any inscription you would like free of charge through my jeweler friend.

Just a thought.

Much love.

Thank you so much, my lady. Hopefully we will get up the funds, but simple engraved bands sound lovely and they would be so meaningful coming from your (allbeit soulless) place of work. I will certainly speak to you about it.

Oh I hate it when things like that happen!! And the phrase "I'm absolutely gutted" does so aptly describe the way I feel when I have mishaps of a similar ilk!

I am sending you both all my best right now ... this WILL all be worked out!! You two are one of the sweetest and most beautiful couples around ... a rare and perfect match ... and because of that, everything will be right as rain soon!!! :) :)

Looking forward to seeing the art tomorrow!!!! :)

Oh my god, that's awful. I'm so sorry, both of you! ::hugs:: They look lovely too. I can't believe someone would be so evil to take them. They'll get their comeuppance!

Oh darling, this is horrible! I lost my wallet on my rather wild romp through the city last night and so will be sadly short of money (I lost $300!!...!!!!!!...!!!!!) until next month, but I would love to buy some art from you when I can.

I don't know if I've been robbed, I was very drunk and having an emotional crisis (long complex story) and I either left it behind at the bar or dropped it in a busy street. Hopefully someone will pick it up and return it to me.

I still plan on purchasing your Oxford vs Cambridge, roller derby & Fop vs Dandy t-shirts. I shall be a little poor for possibly a while, as I'll be moving from full-time to two-day per week work (BUT! I shall be working for a feminist book publisher! which is far more awesome), but I shall endeavour to manage my funds & send a little your way. <3
