beautiful beetle

it's no secret i love bugs, except for cockroaches, mosquitos, and fleas, and other piojos. i once even had the luck of discovering and touring the May Natural History Museum near colorado springs.

anyways, today i was at the mall. i had to spend some "belks bucks" (essentially, free money for previous spending, with an expiration date). sometimes i'm not a very good shopper. but, i had this free money that was going to expire by closing time tomorrow. so i HAD to spend it.


i didn't want clothing, or shoes, or sheets, etc. i ended up in the jewelry department. i don't like high polish, or lots of bling. and when i saw this, i knew it was the one.

it's quite heavy, and the pendant part is 2.25" tall and 1.5" wide. it's made by fossil. i love it!
