so I see @missy and @rambo gave us homework. I'll play.
1. I learned how to dream walk from my grandfather when I was 4 years old. It's the closet thing to religion I subscribe to.
2. I have a cat Goose and a dog Mon. Team mongoose I call them.
4.I grew up in Charlotte, NC though I am from DC and my family is from Trinadad and Portugal.
5. I have been married twice in my life. My first marriage almost killed me after my daughter died. It left me with a dark spot in my heart and I almost died from the sadness. But I can say now I'm truly happy and my wife Alec is amazing and the best part of my life.
6. I grew up watching lucha libre and I never really watch it now or really TV. But a lot of my ideas from painting pinups comes from it.
7. I speak awful Portuguese but I'm working on getting better at it. I spoke it great when I was 5 I'm told.
8. I recently found out my family still lives in Brazil. I'm excited to write letters and get them back from Brazil.
9. Being mixed when I was a kid was hard. People didn't get me. I feel home now surrounded by my Spanish neighborhood. Latin America is so big that we are made up all types of shades of people. It's nice to not feel strange and out of place. This place is such a great home to me (SG ). Thank you every day for that.
10. I have a form of arthritis that effects my hands , fleets, shoulders, knees and ribs. It wakes me in my sleep most nights. It is hard and some years I do physical therapy for it and others I tough it out.
Love you guys and girls
