I have just TKO’d my digestive tract for him. He wanted ham and lentil pilaf for dinner. Easy stuff. I got the pilaf going (straight out of a box, boys and girls – no fuss, no muss), got the ham slices that I had cut from the Christmas ham my company gave me (yes, there…
Since I put it in about a year ago, I’ve gotten a few inquiries about how to add the button I have in my footer for visiting other diaries. Following is the code I used – there are as many different ways to tweak this as there are people who are using it. For what…
Quarter to ten. The Professor is still abed. I opened the blinds in the bedroom to the window over the dresser, and the Warrior Princess now lies on top of the dresser, basking and generally being Queen (or at least, Princess) of all she surveys. The Clueless Wonder has received breakfast and is now curled…
Cat from Hell met up with her first up close and personal encounter with Nature this evening. I knew something was wrong when she wouldn’t respond to the call of the dinner bowl. Investigation revealed a Cat too engrossed at the balcony door to be willing to break her rapt gaze for something as mundane…
Well, another day, another paracentesis. This one was a little rougher than most. I was on the table for a little over two hours – the block wears off in about half an hour, so it got a bit uncomfortable. I was making jokes that I should come with a warning label “Caution: Contents under…
Yesterday the Socialist rinsed the salt off from underneath my car for me. The road crews have gone absolutely crazy with laying down salt this year. Many of the cars on the road (mine included) look like they’ve been dipped in powdered sugar from all the road salt adhering to them. I have to say…
Perhaps you’ve shared some of the magic by showing the unicorn to us? Lovely piece.

PS I liked the font you were experimenting with. I find microscopic punctuation a bit frustrating, too.
How nice that the shop keeper had a horn added for you! Either he really wanted to make a sale or he was a really nice guy.
Maybe you could wear it for a holiday picture and then have the picture around to remind you of the unicorn on a daily basis without having to wear it everyday.
that was a really nice thing for the shop owner to do. it’s a really pretty piece. thanks for the Gumby & Pali take a test visual. i’m sure the other students got a kick out that too.
Very cool story, lovely pin.
i know what you mean though about "collecting"…. i once had a few Opus penguin things because i loved Bloom County. Suddenly everyone assumed i was into penguins in general and you would not believe some of the things i ended up with, lol!
The peek into your heart overwhelms =*)
Your cherished unicorn has beautiful detail and the goodwill of the jeweler.
btw, where you ever 15?
;p
The thoughtfulness of the shopkeeper must have been captured in the piece.

I agree with Lilith. Great entry. I can barely remember being 15.
I laughed so hard when I read that people thought you collected unicorns!
I once had an aunt tell people that I collected music boxes simply because she thought that I needed to start collecting something. I think I got 6 or 7 music boxes that year and was completly confused as to why. Then its impossible not not get trapped because you don’t want to tell people that you don’t like thier gift, but you also don’t want them to keep buying you useless clutter.
Were not where!
Though where you were would have done too.
It’s wonderful that you’ve kept and treasured it for so long. I have little to remind me of good times from those years, and I would like once in a while something tangible to remind me of the girl that I was then.
If you ever do pass it on, be sure you find somebody worthy. 🙂
I wish I remembered being 15.
Your unicorn is beautiful and I can see he is very special, as he just exudes character 🙂
Treasures are special, so take care of him.
I am glad you survived 15!! I remember 15 very well, and it is a hard period in many peoples life.
Hugs
