I hope you all are staying warm :)
I'm not used to the Bay Area being this cold. I need my little cuddle buddies with me :( It's embarrassing but right now I am living at my families and the furry kids are not allowed in the house). A travesty if you ask me… Who does that? Who in their right mind actually makes the dog sleep outside(garage)? They eat table scraps like animals!! They are expected to work and dig and it's impossible to keep Penelope's sweater clean!!!
Ok it's not the end of the world but I am bummed I have no blanket heaters anymore..
On the bright side, I decided this year… I hate Christmas… I know, I know I said the bright side… We will get there. The more I am around people chit chatting about presents and food (I'm on a juice fast) and family and politics and money and other head aches.. The more I want to skip Christmas all together. I really want to volunteer some place. I've never done that before and I think doing good would be more satisfying then sitting by a fire, with all my new shit, listening to the women talk about food and the men talk about football… (Yes that's how old fashioned and traditional my household is).
If anyone in the Bay Area knows of any solid non-profits hook a sista up!
Ok so to the bright side :) (I did not forget) MY DOG IS SO AWESOME I decided to put her on a Christmas card and send some California sun to my friends in even colder parts of the US. I baked home-made organic dog treats and sent little care packages to my friends and their pets :) I tell you what, I am super broke this year and still struggling to pay some bills, let alone move or go on a trip I've been planning, BUT!!!! I do love sending people stuff :) That's the bright side of Christmas for me; getting to surprise people with a little love xoxo
On yet ANOTHER BRIGHT SIDE (This one is straight forward, no tricks) I have had two people offer to buy prints of my photography from me :) I am so incredibly excited about that. I haven't posted much art on SG. I will have to fix up my Flicker and link you guys to it. I haven't put any art up yet so knowing people war to support me without ever even having seen my work is really humbling, inspiring, and touching for me.
Ideas for the New Year: I am trying to do an overhaul on my health now rather than after the holidays so I won't be settling on the usual "lose 10 lbs" resolution. I'm really going to try and push my photography to the next level. Also I've been thinking about it and I MIGHT put up an SG set this year. I've thought about it in the past and I recognize the stipulations that go along with being naked on the internet… I want to eventually teach high school; though not for several years… Nudies online could be detrimental to my career (Ha! Who am I kidding? I haven't any career at this point, I'm waiting tables)
This is my thought process: If I want the world to change I have to be the one to change it. I have friends who teach and yet work second jobs at dispensaries. I have teacher friends who have tattoos and like metal. Believe it or not the world is changing and it is for the better. Still women are told to be ashamed of their bodies, nakedness is wrong, we are here for a man's pleasure (**Well sometimes a woman's pleasure because when we are drunk with our friends lesbians can be pretty hot. But not dudes, that's fucking gross**) We HAVE to be skinny. But we also have to have boisterous curves (No plastic) a perfect face, and everybody knows a true and respectable lady always holds her tongue. In 2014 this is still how we plan to view women?
Women are the under appreciated and over worked goddesses of all history. IT MIGHT BE TIME FOR ME TO GET NAKED. I mean it though. Not to sound negative (I'm really not trying to bitch) but if I do cross over from member to HOPEFUL my sets would most likely have political undertones. I LOVE tube socks and Batman, don't get me wrong, and I would LOVE to have cute, funny, sultry sets as well. I would HAVE to. THAT'S JUST A HUGE PART OF WHO I AM. ^^^ Fucking huge dork in case you were unaware :) But I also want to stand up for what SG means to me. I believe that SUICIDE GIRLS ARE STANDING UP FOR AND CELEBRATING INDIVIDUAL WOMEN'S SEXUALITY. We are not Playboy play things. On this site woman have taken charge of their sexuality, owned and operated it, flaunted it, and allowed it to grow and shape them into who they want to be (Rather than who they are told to be). I love it. I can stand behind that. Plus I can advocate for animal rights, the importance of education, pro-tolorance, healthy communication, history, fantasy,books, sci-fi, gore,music and cartoons… haha ME!
(I had to throw this image in here to lighten up my political/social rant <3)
Thanks for reading my blog. This one was a bit light on the pictures but I'm trying to write real things instead of always just posting photos. You are a saint if you followed the whole thing. In today's world attention spans are running short… and I DIDN'T EVEN SHOW! A saint I tell you, a saint ;p
All My Love&Luck
