gift ideas: rings

i've never been one to wear a ring. probably because i can only put a ring on 9 out of 10 of my fingers. or at least that's my excuse. but i've got 9 other good fingers that could surely sport a ring. running doesn't stop people without legs, so why should a broken/crooked finger stop me from sporting a ring!
moreover, onto the ring wrap-up for the ladies and gents....

i would wear this...only if i wore more black.

i actually did this as a kid, i would put bandaids around my fingers & wear them as rings. i'm glad i wasn't the only little postmodern fashionisto running around with wrapped bandages around my fingers.

fun fact: i've eaten a crocodile or an alligator before. it could have been either for all i know, i was in florida & it was a deep fried & breaded. and florida is where people go to die. and as an american, i'm required to eat anything that is deep fried or breaded. and still i escaped to tell the tale that i've had some sort of gator.
