Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard. Live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.
- Mistakenly attributed to Kurt Vonnegut but really by Mary Schmich

Scratch Northern California and replace with Pacific Northwest- Portland and Seattle are no better to tell you the truth.

I seriously think Seattle is making me soft. Let me...

New Profile Pic: The Light Bearer on the playa

Still feeling on top of the fucking world...this is nice...I could get used to this. For some reason my sex life is either a flood or a drought...either I am dating three people or I am miserably alone. Why is that? My current theory is that getting laid is self-perpetuating (if you are doing it right)...as...

When we are kids our worlds are huge and our hearts are open. Stretch your arms way out wide- this big -that's how you live and love. And as you get older you slowly get knocked back inside yourself. You put up walls. Now bring your hands together- form a circle with your index fingers and thumbs -and pretty soon you live and love from...

Today's Profile Pic:
Lingerie Camp at Burning Man 2002 - my friend (not pictured) and I picked out matching red teddies and went romping about the playa. (BTW is it odd for a straight male to have so many drag pics?)

Speaking of Burning Man- I added some BM photos to my online album. Did I mention I know some damn sexy ladies.

Spike and...

people watching was fun today. I am lucky enough to live in a very artsy, open minded town, we are all freaks here and damn proud!smile

You welding projects sound great! there is a woman that does that here. She displays her welded creations on her lawn. They are fantastic!! I will have to take a picture and show you.

Ps. never think of anyone as being out of your league..beauty does not make one better then another.kiss

So after posting this pic for someone else- I decided to make it my profile pic. The shot is of Halloween 2000 at the Toybox. I'm on the left in raver drag and my brother is on the right as Alex from A Clockwork Orange.

:: Prosperity: A Desert Experience ::
OMG what an experience...outdoor raves are why I live in Seattle. Oh life is rough when you have to go camping in the desert under the starry sky, and dance to amazing music all night long before the full moon. I even went hiking along the canyon floor along the river, and the next day took to the hills...

Tears of joy should be wept,
And the firstborne of the land,
Offered up as sacrifice,
Fore the evil spell has been broken,
And while my job may still suck,
Atleast today I did my work.
biggrin

So it's 1am and while it sucks that I am still at work, I have finally found my groove again. I was a little worried there that my little...

well, it wasn't so much that I was going to .. it was just a frame of mind that I wanted to erase the given moment I was in .. and no better way to erase things then killing brain cells.

I have been working too hard and travelling too much. For once I am looking forward to a nice quiet weekend at home. I fucking need to clean my house something fierce...a spring cleaning if you will. I need to get some of my B&W photos framed and put up some more artwork. I needed to get grounded again. I need my...

WHATS THE SATURNALIA THING YOU HAVE LISTED ON YOUR SITE???????

You were camped right behind me last year!!! I was with Saturnalia in ImageNode! I looked a bit different then, my hair was long and bright red. My tent was right next to the Porno Klown Posse and I had a big pirate flag in front of it!

I never realized just how much a healing tattoo itches...go figure since I just perforated the skin a few thousand times with a needle. I will have to keep that in mind for next time I choose to get one that is in that one spot on my back I can't touch.

Ladies and Gentlemen of SG- allow me to present my new tattoo. An original celtic knot design drawn by myself and a friend, and done by Gilbert at Apocalypse Tattoo here in Seattle.

Tell me what you think...
