I am so happy to be back!
So sorry that I have been MIA!! SoBeIt and I sold our house!! Hoooray!! Thanks for all of the encouragement and love that everyone sent to hang in there - because two days after I wrote about how frustrated I was about all the uptight people that didn't like my painted walls and stripper pole..... the coolest, tattooed couple came thru, loved everything about it and made the offer.
The last few days have been a whirlwind of busy events with the offer, counter-offer, acceptance, paper signing, opening Escrow and all that fun stuff that goes along with it. I have been soooooo missing everyone on SG and couldn't wait to get thru all of this chaos to get back to my happy friends here! So hooray... things are settled down a bit and we are on the road to moving. It is a 30-Day Escrow - so a month from now, we will be somewhere new - which we are very excited about!! Things will move very swiftly and I don't have much time to dawdle.
I have also been so anxious to get to my journal because I have lots of pictures to show you from last weekend, when Knaight tattooed the color into my Maneki Neko/Lotus flower on my neck.
I was so excited to get it done and just couldn't be happier with the results. I love the contrast of the purples/pinks in the flower to the cat. And... a super cool effect that Knaight captured -- there is NO white ink at all in the cat - the surrounding colors, just give it that effect and it almost "tricks your eye" into looking white. We wanted to keep her white because the white Maneki Neko encompasses all of the good luck (whereas the other solid colors each mean seperate things - the white brings all of them together)... but he didn't want to ink in a solid patch of white, because that much white ink is hard to get to stick and look right. So all of the other colors around it were supposed to contrast the cat - and it worked so wonderfully... she really looks white! I said that I think she is my magic cat... after all... she IS lucky, right?
SoBeIt got some beautiful ink that night too and I think he will be posting it in his journal also. It's a gorgeous purple girl (image by Peter Gullerud and tattoo byKnaight ). I just love her big flirty eyes!!
The "socks of the day" are my green knee-highs with funky monkey socks over them
Oh yes, and a small update on the mini/baby mohawk. This pic was a few days ago, so it's grown a tad more now (at least, I like to think that - ha ha... every little bit counts, right)?
When it grows out a bit more, I want to bleach it out and color it a rad, fun color... so my question of the day is:
What color do you think my little hawk should be when I am able to dye it?
I can't wait to see whatcha vote for?
Sure love you all and thank you for being so supportive, kind, beautiful and special to me!!
