Well, they finally did it.  Prince William and Kate Middleton have announced their royal engagement.

I have to admit, I do love a good royal wedding.  I watched both Diana and Fergie do the dirty deed and that was back in the day when I actually had to get *up* unbearably early to watch rather than just stay up as “late” as I generally do now on a daily basis.  I expect it will be much easier on me this time around and I will be there.   By “there” I don’t mean actually at the wedding (I ain’t getting pawed by some big TSA bitch just to attend a wedding I’m not invited to).  No, by “there” I mean planted in front of my TV with yummy Nutella-laced coffee and mebbe a plate of pancakes made with Lyle’s golden syrup in the batter, in order to honor the occasion (and the only food I found even remotely edible both times I was in England).  No baked beans though.  That’s just disgusting.

So, here’s hoping that the woman who is wearing this ring:

Fairs much better than the woman who wore it before  her:
