Hello SG world!
As you've seen, I have been pretty busy since April. I had a small convention run w/ my Equilibrium USG fam. I cosplay modeled for them at the Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo (C2E2) & Anime Central (ACen), which were both a LOT of fun. :D I'll more than likely be at Wizard World later this summer here in Chicago & then in New York for the NY Comic Con in October!! I'm really excited for NY. While I'm there I definitely want try & meet my dear @lavish_ & possibly shoot a set w/ the uber talented @brooklyn.
In the midst of all the comic & anime conventions, the track season has commenced as of spring, so that has gotten into the mix, as well. Right after ACen, I staffed at DDay 48/48.5 (drift day) for ClubFR. I love DDays! Drifting is not my style of driving by choice, but I do love watching it & luckily I have plenty of friends who fuckin' kick ass at it. Dope cars, chill folks, fun times. Just this past weekend we went to New Haven, MI for GridLife at Gingerman Raceway. For two days we had drifting, time attack trials, a car show & a dance party. It was practically the modern (& waaay cooler) version of fuckin' "Race Wars" from Fast & the Furious lol...I didn't post much from that b/c (1) the signal was spotty & (2) I wanted to enjoy the most of it that I could. And I did. So yay for me. :P
On top of all this, I was working on a vinyl commission for a friend's Toyota FRS. It's actually finished, but I decided to redo the color b/c...well, I'm my own worst critique. After that, I still have to start on my friend's boob collage commission, which I am EXCITE for. \(^,^)/ Tittays are so up my alley when it comes to art haha. ***NOTE*** If you want your boobs in this collage painting submit a photo or two via PM here or DM on my Instagram. Those that I choose to include in the collage will get a free signed copy of the final print when it is done...which will be whenever I get to it. SOON. I also have this tattoo commission...fawk, I'm so damn busy!!
WORK. Work has piled up on me at my full-time gig, which is good for me career-wise. On the other hand, I can't fuckin' wait for my back-up to return from maternity leave so I can catch up on my work. I don't even know how I fuckin' do it all. Today, especially after all the cons & car events & shiet, I was reeeeally tired. I had to grab coffee in the afternoon to keep me awake. Craziness. You can do this, Kon. Just fuckin' hang in there! *whimpers*
So....the cherry on the top is what we all found out yesterday: my roomie's madre (who owns the house we're renting) came unannounced yesterday & said that we had to be out by the end of May. (O_O)! What the fuckin' fuckity fuck...story is that she gave my roomie notice at the end of April/beginning of May, but for some reason or another we weren't told until yesterday (June 2). Now, we all have to be out of this house ASAP so his mom can renovate & try to sell the home again. Way more background details, but that's the jist of it all.
The shitty thing about it is---aside from the $$$ we're about to dump to move---is that my beau & I are scheduled to visit my family from July 2 - 7th. But, that probably will not happen now...which just...yeah...bloody blows. Well, mi madre, little bro & cousin are supposed to come up sometime this week to help my younger sister (who also lives w/ us) pack & move back down to Louisiana w/ them. That was inevitably going to transpire, but now we're all just gettin' rushed into chaos. I LOVE CHAOS! (-_-)
BUT, this will be fun, right? I actually thrive in chaos, but it drains me. My schedule was supposed to be wide open now. I greatly miss being in front of the camera. It feels like a while since I last did a photo shoot. I can't even remember when that fuckin' happened...oh yeah. The Tattoo Arts Convention w/ @azera, which I can't wait to see the rest of those photos.
Thus, my IG feed & interaction on here has been pathetic. I apologize, but priorities. I DO, however, want to say THANK YOU for all of your continued love & support. It means a lot to me. I also want to take this time to thank everyone who has recently followed me. If I didn't comment on your page saying so, don't worry. I've been keeping tabs when I have the chance. I just really hope all this shit sorts out soon so I can get on w/ my summer & be more productive w/ ART. Photos & my art.
I really gotta go now, unfortunately. Until next time, my lovelies. You all rock!! <3<3<3
Love always,
