Holp!



So. One of my friends is engaged. Wow, what do you do when everyone around you suddenly begins to change, with their lives unfolding before them? My life, at the moment, is rather like one of those tents. You know, the ones that get stuck halfway through pitching them, and lean sideways, so all the rain puddles and leaks in, and then falls down when someone outside sneezes on it? Not that it's bad, I just feel like I have less direction in it than I would like. My God, I don't even have a boyfriend or anything of the sort, no solid job, no degree (yet, of course).

I forget what Wormtongue's exact lines were, but the were something like this:
"Who knows what you've said to the darkness....with the walls of your bower closing in around you."

Kind of sums it up don't it! Although like I said, I am happy right now, just not solid. J-E-L-L-O. Hopefully once I'm settled down in Thunder Bay I'll feel a little more stable. After all I'll have moved four times this summer, which can make anyone topsy-turvy.

But I digress. I shall post a picture of a ring I found online, which is very close to what I would like someday in a wedding ring. I don't want mine to be so - well - prominent though. less diamond spikes per se, so that it's a smaller tanzanite or sapphire with a few diamond accents, on white gold or platinum. Don't ask much, do I?
