Goth AND "Platense" -- what a trip!

Lies and secrets become your world., originally uploaded by Dead girls don't cry.
I had asked Daniela's kind permission to show a different "second photo" -- the title had intrigued me, but I don't understand it, and don't want to jump to conclusions. (One girlfriend accused me of doing that, regarding her, and it complicated things...)

So, begging Daniela's indulgence, I'm going to go with this photo of her, with IT'S own equally intriguing title -- ""Lies and secrets become your world."

She does a long sub-caption in what's called "Platense" (from the Rio de la Plata, or the "River Plate," if one must!) -- I understand it from my checkered youth, a bit of which I spent in Montevideo, across the river. Anyhow, Platense is part archaic Spanish (peculiar informal verbs, etc.) and it is a wonderful "insider-speak."

She writes "...today I can say that I'm where I want to be...I'm thinking of Saturday which OF COURSE will be TREMENDOUS...I wanna stay on this great wave, hoping you'll follow me...you're my best girlfriend..."

(There are lots of hints re girl-on-girl loving, though I'm not sure if its anything but defying norms, as a good goth is pledged to do.)

PW 30 (this beguiling shot, waiting for a kiss, perhaps -- a kiss that leads to secret stuff we won't mention here!)
