amazing... 21:44 and i'm in bed already! i think it's because i didn't have any caffeinne this afternoon. no i went straight from school (which i left promptly at 3:30 like a good girl) to my house, changed to yoga regalia but with underwire, grabbed a shirt i need altered and went straight to the tailor. from which i went to the gym, arriving at 16:15 with plenty of time to prepare for tomorrow before going to pilates!

anyway.

and the silver anniversary of my existence is fast approaching. since one only lives once and i've had enough of silver, this will be the platinum anniversary of my existence. i have a (one-piece) collection of antique platinum rings that i'm looking to build up. my mom said she would give me one of hers if i didn't find what i was looking for.

the whole reasoning behind the PT is should the need arise i can switch fingers and invent a story to discourage unsolicited attention.

actually, no. it's a "right hand ring." which means that first and foremost i am committed to myself. i know, that sounds selfish but one of the worst feelings i have experienced is that of betryaing/cheating on myself. ie, dating one person while thinking about another; doing something i really don't want to do, stuff like that. going against what my heart tells me, to put it in other words.

when i got it in 2003 i honestly thought more people would ask me about it and what it means. nobody has unless i mold the conversation to make the person ask just what it means.

yeah so the above is a bunch of crap that came to my mind while i feel some kind of fever creeping up to my ears.

what happens if it swallows me whole? i'll certainly be much warmer.

and one more thing. in chile a friend told me sos exigente, orgullosa, e introvertida. the first two i already knew, but introverted? hello, i traveled half a world by myself, then twenty hours on a bus by myself (wedged between the window and an obese blind man, no less) and you call me introverted? but i'm beginning to see it.
