Today Joel and I went wedding band shopping. I had already gotten his, but we wanted to pick mine out together... so we went to the same shop he bought my engagement ring at. We walk in and IMMEDETALY a sales man comes up to us and greets us with his sly smile... and asks us if we wanted anything to drink.. coffee, soda, water? We went for water. we walk around and he proceeds to be male and tell me that of course i want diamonds... maybe i do.. but don't tell me what to do... but he was nice so i was nice back... this random sales girls comes around and gives us carrot cake... Joel and i both detest carrot cake... but we slowly ate it to be nice!! As we are looking around at the rings we become fast BFFs with Chris. we tell him that we have a budget so what does he do, takes us straight to the most expensive part of the shop. He puts on a ring on my finger and I look at the price tag and I yell ( a little too loud) "holy Hannah!" and say "Christopher, I said we have a budget." and give him the ring back. we go over the side... the cheaper side and find a nice ring.. as we were purchasing the ring Chris told us he was talking to his co-worker about when he was young he didn't have any girlfriends so instead he gave himself hickeys with his mom's vacuum cleaner. His co-worker laughed and Chris said "don't laugh, it was an upright!"
just beautiful... you will all see it at the wedding.
And then to pass the time as they were cleaning my engagement ring we went into a furniture store... just to pretend that we could afford such lavish things... and we made a bet to see how long it would take to have a sales person accost us... it took 3 minutes and I won... any way we did an excellent job pretending that we could not only afford this furniture but that we were looking to buy it as well... and then for some reason not sure how we got on the subject ... but she proceeded to tell us about her elk hunting experiences, yeah seriously she did... and how she didn't like it too much and she won't go again... anyway we stayed in there for a long time making fun of the furniture we would never buy and then finally we left... but not with out her giving us her business card and asking us to ask for her when we come back in... oh the lies we tell..
you know... the experiences i have... they are like from book.. i should write one

Entertaining. The life and times of Adriel and Joel.
Rings and furniture.Hickeys with an upright. Remorseful Elk Hunters. Is this what people in Idaho are like, Joel?
Oh the shame of self given vaccum cleaner hickeys..not that I would know....but weren't we all once young and experimental...
haha just kidding!
cool story. You should made up your own vacume cleaner story. A person always has to leave a conversation with a stranger having a leg up on the dude. My story would have been that I used a vacume cleaner for unplugging a gastointestinal blockage cause by my aunts hotdish of cheese and goolosh. Or something like that.
