"surprise me", then, is the gift that keeps on giving -- you give her both a diamond and reason to be mildly disappointed in you for the next several years....until you get her something bigger and better....
so.....if it ain't gonna be a surprise anyway, i'd take her along and let her do much of the decision making, at least as long as she understands some important parameters (nothing over a grand....)
bear in mind, the thrill of shopping for a diamond = the thrill of owning a diamond for *most women*....
so maybe if she wants you to surprise her, tell her you're going to Arby's or something like that and hit the jewelry store instead.....in this way you get the benefit of giving the gift (seeing her happy, temporary increase in oral sex activity) and you defer part of the responsibility for picking out the wrong thing.
cheers
(*most women* = any women who's oral sex output will increase upon shopping for and receiving a diamond.....*other women* = women who won't increase oral sex output upon receiving a diamond = don't drop a grand for a diamond on other women in any case)

Well all things aside. Your post was pretty funny. Like i told flaco she isn't expecting anything.
I do like Arby's...and because of this your post is now valid.
That is a good idea about telling her were going somewhere else, then stopping by tiffanys or something.
Then again it would be nice when we open presents with her whole family to get her something nice(there is some pressure there, on me)
i don't know man.
