I've been thinking about this question and what I would say if it were asked of me.
I think I would have to say, "She cost me my heart which makes her priceless."
Then again, I might say, "She was so expensive I worked 30 years to be able to afford her." (Late retirement gift..LOL)
Cute aside... When I start teaching in the mid-70's, mood rings were very popular. It just so happened that the bright blue "happy" color was almost the same as the stone in my college ring. One of my students was fascinated by the ring I wore and kept trying to get me to give it to him. I told him it was way too expensive to give to him. When he asked how much it cost, I told him $10,000. I can still remember the look on his face...LOL (Best investment I've ever made...LOL...today that ring would cost about $100,000 at least.) |
