A Bed Of Ultraviolet Rays

An update for the sake of updating...

For those of you who don't know me personally, I wear about a million and one little bracelets. Constantly. Rubber, plastic, yarn, ribbon, paper... So many different kinds in all sorts of colors and sizes. Today, for the first time since December of 2003, I took them all off. (Except for one, which is braided together with embroidery thread.) The reason being... I didn't want them all to melt together onto my wrists. Now, why would this be a problem, you ask? I'll tell you.

Today, I started tanning. Since I am going to prom with Chris, his mom is spoiling me rotten and is trying to tweak my style. One of the less attractive things about me, I suppose, was my extreme paleness. Now, some people find pale skin attractive... But there are very few people HERE, on the beach, who like it. She bought me a month of tanning.

So. I had to take off my bracelets. Now, my wristae look terribly pale and weak and fragile. I had forgotten that they are so thin. They look as though you'd be able to snap them in two with little to no effort. Not really in a disgusting, sickly way... More in a petite, feminine way.

Yeah.

I'm really working hard, man. I'm going to be even more gorgeous than I am right now when this is all over. ;)
