Saturday, March 29

I really don't like working Saturdays. I'm stuck in the office now, pretending to work, when actually all I'm doing is updating my blog and surfing the web. And for this they make me drive 30km! Fools. Day Two now, and still uncertain. Topic of the day: My Ring.

I'm wearing a ring on a thong around my neck. Nothing fancy, just a plain silver band with the date I got it, and my girlfriend's name. She has one too, with my name. It was one of the last things we bought together before she left overseas. Now that the dust is starting to settle, and the future looms (uncertainly, again), I'm left wondering what I should do with it. Honestly, it's turned into my good luck charm. More than a few times this month I've found myself touching it unconsciously, especially when I'm stressed out. Makes me feel better, somehow. I guess that's what love does for you. Couldn't imagine not having it..I did an experiment, last night. Took it off for the first time in 2 months, right before I went to bed. Woke up this morning, panicky and clutching at my throat for a full half minute before I remembered I put it on my dresser. That's how attached I am to it, and to what it represented. Anyway, if things don't work out, I guess one day I WILL have to take it off, say goodbye and keep it in storage. Until that day comes, it'll be around my neck..a testament to my stubbornness and my faith in miracles..and in love.

More later. Peace, y'all.
