another seizure

i got an up-close look at more than $1,000,000 worth of diamonds last week. there were several pair of earrings and a couple of bracelets. one of the pair of earrings was really pretty and i could see wearing them (with a fancy dress, of course). another pair was very very fancy, but nothing i'd ever wear.

all the earrings were long and dangly, and one of the bracelets was one of those amazon-arm band things made up of small-diamond-studded wires going round and round ever-which-way. all-in-all i thought .... huh, no big deal.

if i were going to spend a LOT of money on expensive earrings, i would want understated, quiet ones which said expensive, classy good taste.
