I ordered a piece of acrylicized wood to send to him as a replacement inlay, figuring that it should be a LOT more durable. It was supposed to be delivered today, but a combination of the wood vendor and UPS has conspired to screwup the delivery. *sigh*
So tomorrow I get the new wood, Thursday I ship out the ring to the jeweler, and hopefully I get it back at some point late the next week. I need to dig up my old ring so my finger doesn't feel empty for a week. :-(
