The Four Rings of Marriage?

There's an old joke about the "three rings of marriage" . . . 

1) the engagement ring

2) the wedding ring

3) and the suffering

classic stuff . . . but-- if you have a lisp-- there's also "the swallowing" . . . to explain: a few nights ago I stumbled into the bathroom in the dark-- it was probably 2:30 AM-- urinated and then groped for the plastic water cup . . . and I guess I had trouble locating the plastic water cup because I turned on the bathroom light-- and I normally do NOT turn on the bathroom light and I just fill the cup in the dark and drink some-- but for whatever reason, I turned on the light and I thank the Lord of Sun and Light (Amun-Ra?) that I did so-- because just before I drank, I noticed that there were two objects in the water cup-- rings!-- and the water was weird and soapy . . . my wife decided to clean her wedding ring and engagement ring and she ill-advisedly used the grope-in-the-dark-bathroom-water-cup (and placed the cup on the bathroom counter!) and so I came very close to swallowing two of the rings of marriage . . . and then there would have been much gastrointestinal suffering before those things returned to the light of day.
