You guys...I wish someone had been recording my reaction. I had just finished cooking dinner and was just sitting down to eat. Happened to refresh my email box and the top email said I had a message from SuicideGirls. I've got my email set up in my phone so I can see 5 lines of text so right there ready for me to see were the words "Your set Mahogany Blues was selected Set of the Day!" I went PINK!! I did one of those awkward silent cries where you don't make a sound and look like you're gonna pass out. Aside from informing those in my general vicinity, I immediately texted my friends and couldn't be more grateful for the love and support I've received from them over the years.
I'd been a Hopeful since 2013 and honestly thought this wasn't going to ever be a moment for me and I was okay with that. I love this community and the people in it, I love the relationships I've made both on the site and off (@marceline here's looking at you from that text last night!), and I love having a place to be myself.
I cannot even begin to tell you how much I appreciate everyone who's ever interacted with me on SuicideGirls.
To @missy @rambo @sean THANK YOU! You seriously made my dream come true. I'm still on cloud 9. Still reeling. Still giddy as can be. This feeling is incredible and I'm so thankful to be a part of the family!
