I suppose I should update this thing, eh?
*Having my sister, niece, and nephew visit was awesome. I'm so glad I got to see them again so soon and for so long. They left last Wednesday. I miss them tons already.
*Went to Phoenix last Thursday to Monday night. Too short of a trip, but good to see a few people. Would have seen more...

My sister had her baby Monday morning. A boy 
It's nearly settled that he'll be named Hamilton. His dad has liked the name since before big sister Hazel was born nearly 3 years ago (August 11th) but my sister's still getting used to the idea of it, she's warming up to it. She's just not so keen on the nickname that comes with the name......

Hey you!
Yeah popped back for a month, not really sure why, still don't feel like contributing much to the site, it's like driving by an old house you used to live in, sometimes you can't resist just passing by it to see how it looks.
Hope you're good, saw you recent pics of you being a cool aunty

Can someone just dig this thing out of me? Please. I don't want or need it anymore. I'm a bit bored with it now.
Last Monday I had an ultrasound done to try and figure out what's going on with whatever it is. I left the ultrasound place speculating three possibilities; clogged lymph node (like "we've" though all along), ovarian cyst, or hernia. I hadn't...

Awe. I came over here hoping to hear that they figured out what was wrong with you. 
Inconclusive is not what I was hoping to hear. That blows. What is your next plan of action considering the insurance runs out in March did you say? You absolutely need to stay proactive about them finding out what is wrong with you. When my memory was all fucked and I couldn't even remember coloring my hair- even though the water in the shower was a muddy, murky black and the color looked great when my hair was dry. I even got a compliment from my shrink on my hair looking awesome. I was like- I wish I could remember coloring it. It sucked so hard. I couldn't remember dick shit. I knew something was wrong. I'm glad I am off most my meds. I only take 2 pills at night and adderall for ADD in the morning. When I got off the Lamictal- my memory was fine.
I'm glad you see the niece and nephew. I love visiting my nieces and nephews. I haven't seen my nieces in 3 years. It's crazy that I haven't seen my sister in that long either. I miss them so much.

oh honey!
I remember before I was diagnosed with my tumors. They are covering my liver and the smallest one is the size of a golf ball but they couldnt find them. They were concentrating on my girly parts because the pain was so intense and everywhere! Took forever! But at least there is no cancer and I am doing pretty good. After so many years I hardly feel them anymore!
Thanks you for the congrats! I am so happy I cant stand to be around MYSELF!

I went on a bike ride earlier this evening. My sister left her bike behind when she moved and I had been meaning to clean it up and ride it for months now. Today I finally got around to it. I bought biking pants/capris, a helmet, and got the tires filled up today. I was excited to ride so I called up a friend who...

My left bicep has been twitching on and off for over 3 hours now, most noticably when I'm sitting down with my hand on my lap. I can sit and watch it visibly twitch under my skin like a little heart beat. I'm not sure why my muscle is freaking out so much but hopefully it'll finish doing whatever it's doing, soon.

I thought I was doing so well at this Gluten Free thing... turns out the vegan cesar dressing I've been using on my salad all week has wheat in it. I didn't think to look at the ingredients for the dressing for some reason. So now I'm starting over... yesterday was day 1 Gluten Free, for real this time. With my diet becoming more and...

I finally found a new doctor and made an appointment after saying I would for a few months now. I found out from a friend from climbing that her mom is a Naturopathic Doctor and gave me her number. I went in on Thursday and I think I'll actually stick with this woman. Although I'll have to get used to her personality, she actually listens,...

Alright. I shall take a picture right after I grow it back out. Should only take me a few weeks.

I love the song to.. but kind of strange to have in my head when I woke up! haha
Awesome.
I'm finally home and glad to be back. I have my first day of class tomorrow morning. It should be my 2nd day, but I was out of town for the 1st day. Already, I'm expected to write a paper on how good of a writer I think I am, accompanied by an old paper/essay I've written. I haven't written a paper in 2...

Writing an essay on how awesome you are - should be easy right?

I am not going to just take off. I suppose I need all the real friends I can get.
So, I leave early Wednesday morning for San Diego. I still need to pack and I have to do it tonight... but I'm being lazy. I had a good day though. It started out with a date in the early afternoon and it went well. He's quite cute with these amazing clear, light blue/green eyes, dark hair, and a good smile... which all get plus...

G on dates - you little devil. Sounds promising so fingers crossed. It's also good that you've had a spark to try your art again, get that creativity flowing.
Many thanks to those of you who wished me a happy birthday 
It turned out to be a pretty good one this year. Lunch and museum with friends, vegan cupcake from my roomie, flowers, card and money from ma', and then my new climbing friends kinda threw me a mini party in one of their basements where we played pool, watched Princess Bride, and tossed...

I would have said happy birthday had I known about it. Visit the Museum of San Diego History.

Glad you had a good birthday. Seems like even though this year started off with a recession, it's treating us Pisces good - so far (Knock on wood).

Your hair s getting wicked long.
That picture of the tree that you were talking about isjust one I found onphotobucket. Ihave TONS of trees. I love em. I cam by your journal to tell you about the trees because you had commented on one that I posted on the chit chat thread a while ago. Anyway- I did a mural at one of the places we rented of a tree that looked similar to the one you like with the spirals. My inspiration was the Tree Of Life by Gustav Klimt. I love his work. I know you were saying you liked his stuff too. He's pretty much the bomb. You should look at a coffee table book of his prints and sketches because he has some pretty crazy stuff that he never finished- just stuff he goofed around on. Amazing shit.
I'm pretty sure if I am not mistaken that the Tree of Life was actually done on 5 panels and specifically made for someones diningroom. I forget what they call that when artists are told to do projects for people for money. Anyway- here is a link to look at that Tree of Life if you are not familiar with it. Tree of Life
When I did my mural at the house that we were renting I made tons of those clear window hangiy things that you paint and put in windows so that the sunlight hits them. I bought really cheapy plastic ones of different animals and things and hung them from the branches of the spiral tree. I used metalic paints and made large magic mushrooms in the grass on both sides of the spiral tree. It was pretty sweet. I used blues and purples in the tree and those paints were metallic too. Most kids loved it and most adults thought i was kind of weird in a home on a random wall. It was 4 houses ago. It was the first place we rented in OR- just your average everyday cookie cutter three bedreeom 2 1/2 bath track home. It kind of was odd looking back in retrospect. I love Spirals and Trees and together- wow. My tattoos on both arms are all twisted spirals called luna waves. My chest piece is the same as my arm cuffs- Spirals that interlink. The pendant is beautiful. I should have my friend take a few pics f my favorite tattoos.
Anyway- if you are looking at tees on photobucket use search criteria such as unique tree or weird tee or interesting tree, bizarre tree, crazy tree, twisted tree, and Spiral tree. You will findsome pretty interesting trees.
Anyway- the cool thing about the one you like is that is not tha difficult to recreate on a small canvas. My friend has a spiral tree on her wall in her livingroom above a switchplate. I want it- I love it.
Last month my mom bought my daughter, Ariana 12" by 12" canvas'. She bought her 12 of them. Ariana is going to do all the astrology signs along with the planetary symbolism. I bought her tons of acrylic paints including tons of metallic ones. I can't wait till she starts painting them. She is going to use certain colors on the fire signs, air, earth and water. The canvas' were super cheap- 40% off each one.
Loe and Light, Ellie
