With a little ingenuity, I was able to re-re-re-fix my computer, and it seems to be holding for now (knock on wood).

I'm still in Cinci, but Chicago is calling me home. It will hopefully all go down before Xmas.

So much to do, so much to think about and work out. I want to rejoin the world of the living. I will hopefully be...

On top of everything else, the computer finally died. I knew this was coming, but I'm not sure when I will be able to replace it now with things so up in the air. I will try to check/update at friends' house when I can.

Thank you all for your well wishes. Things are in limbo. I may be relocating, at least temporarily, to Chicago,...

I am now officially single.

And soon, I'll officially be without a home and any money. And 2 of my dogs. And health insurance. What does tomorrow hold? I have no idea. I'm looking at starting from scratch. I'm trying really hard not to be angry. But right now, all I have to say is:

Thanks you selfish fuckwad.

What happened? why did you break up? I thought you two were really happy.

If you need anything you know where to find me. if you need a place to say for a day or two you can stay with me.

I sure never saw that one coming.

I'm so fucking lost.

Everything changed today.

And with great irony, I bring you my horoscope:


Circumstances today may force you to make an important decision, dear Libra, especially where your family life is concerned. You need to set new goals and objectives. Fortunately, planetary influences today give you good visibility and a strong tailwind. This is important, because we often fail to see the...

Today's Theme: Money, Red Tape, and Other Forms of Bullshit

Blah. Had another doctor's appointment today. And another on Friday. And another next week. I'm so sick of this bullshit. Seriously. The fighting with the insurance company, the having to jump through hoops I've already jumped through, the fucking red tape. Its almost worse than being sick. Isn't that sad? I'm having a hard time...

Went out last night, had fun, good times to be had by all. I'm trying to be more outgoing. I think because I've been working from home for so long, I've started to become slightly antisocial, and I'm trying to reverse that.

Something is stirring. I can feel it. Big changes a'comin'. Can't tell you exactly what it is, or when it will happen, but...

so how was the show at the poison room? we should hit up newport sometime!

There train leaves today, it has already left, so I will probable never see that girl again, unless I join the circus in a year and get with the same group she is with and if she still works there. but if things do not change in a year I just may join the circus. How cool would it be to travel around the US on a train taking photos. I would probable be better abele to pay off my debts that way because I would not have to pay rent or buy food. but if in a year I have a job I like and a girl friend and stuff like that then I will just have to think about it.

I remember an SG saying that she liked that kind to, but could only find it at a couple of places that made it in there store.

I think I'm becoming a little antisocial because I don't work with people I would hang out with, I talk to them at work just fine but there not the kind of people I would ever want to be really good friends with. I miss school when it was easy to find cool people because they were in my classes.

I hope some life changing stuff happens for me soon, I'm really tired of this life.

I need some new clothes, I'm wearing the stuff I have way to many times. and I have been wearing the same shoes for over 2 years now.

Well maybe she likes being stoned.

Had a doctor's appointment today, and I come home and the power is out. Well, fuck. Nothing like not being able to run so much as a fan in 105 degree weather. Blah. But obviously its back on because I don't think my computer runs on ghost spit. Do ghosts spit? I don't know. Or maybe I have heat stroke and I'm just hallucinating that...

i liked all of your pictures, but the one with gizmo is really cute. i also like the "angry" one. i think it looks pretty playful. you could take a few more like it and then see if one is a more balanced look. all of them are good pictures and you really can't go wrong. writing a bio is always frustrating, but i bet yrs is really good as well! i have to write a blurb for a website and i can't even get started, so i get it. be sure to say when yr magazine comes out!

yr friend is silly for not helping with yr hair! i think its alot of fun to cut hair, especially with a willing victi... i mean, person. wink seriously, i think all short hair is putting stuff in and seeing what happens. sometimes i cut myself, and sometimes i go professional. based on the pictures you posted i imagine you look great with a shaved head so worst case scenario you can do that (i am biased because i love the look, mind).

yes, i will stay here until either may or august, but will still likely move to chicago. thereafter i may try for austraila again. who knows? for now i am looking for affordable studio space. i think i'm going to go with an interactive installation that lasts a few weeks. work in progress.

um, GROSS about the heat. i hope all of that works now! i suspect ghosts spit, but something ephemeral. or maybe they just spit rhymes. tongue
nikonphoto80:
I think when they slim you that is there way of spiting on you.

Nope your power is still off, this is all a dream, computers have not even been invented yet you crazy little girl, now wake up and go milk the cow and churn some butter.

What kind of ice cream would you like?

Damn I missed it, the fuck ups at my internet place came out and unhooked my internet on Thursday because they had my address wrong so I had to get all that straitened out and get them to come back out here to fix it, I was not happy, I just got it back today.

Today, I decided to work on the photo that will accompany my still unwritten bio. Considering I was still in my pjs and all I did was throw on some lipstick and beads, I think they came out okay. Being lazy and not wanting to set up lights or anything, I just 'shopped 'em. Bold and colorful... just like in real life. wink

thanks! yes, it is a new chapter, and while it means some good stuff (like my move) will be pushed back, it also means i get to do a project i care more about. yay.

those pictures are ADORABLE! pjs & accessories are the thing this season. wink also, i just realized from yr pics that we have the same hair ~ a faux, yes? you can't really go wrong with any of them.

is that a tattoo on yr wrist? what does it say?
giggles:
very cute pics

Seriously, I could write you a 10 page essay on any subject of your choosing, but I can't write a paragraph bio on myself. But I have to, and SOON, for an upcoming project and I've been staring at the computer for an hour looking at a blank word document. I need help.

I feel better about the previously mentioned situation. I'm taking the wait-and-see...

I can write a 10 page short story, but I can't write a paper to save my life.

Well I would go to the bars with you. maybe you need to find some not so grown up friends. Like on SG or something.

At least you have a window unit now.

Are you on deviant art? I just joined that sight like a week ago.

ckdexterhaven:
Yeah, I take life extremely seriously, as you can tell.

Ok kids, this entry will probably be a bit on the long side, so bear with me. However, I'm posting this because I need (semi-) unbiased opinions and feedback regarding this situation... most of my people in the "real" world have their own experiences within this situation and therefor cannot detach their own emotional aspect.

I have the next two days off. I am going to the Reds game tomorrow night in the hopes that there will be tons and tons of fireworks. Other than that, I've nothing going on. Fri-Sun I work from 4pm until way later than I would like. We should probably hang out at some point, eh. I think I can stomach being seen in public with you....I mean, it's not like I am going to see anyone I know.
candykydfairy:
okay...i have a few family members like this....so i feel your pain....my grandmother bein the main one i can think of who is insanely more psycho, violent, & evil that what you're dealin with...so, at least take comfort in the fact that it could be worse..i think that sometimes it does seem that these people are only dealin with karma comin back around & their bad choices catchinup to them...you have to remember that after all you've done, you should come first right now....i wouldn't completely shut her out but it seems you understand the exaggerations and know when to say no...which is sometimes the hardest part...there are limits to what we should ever have to put up from another person...be it family or not...and once we understand our own personal set of limitations we can better deal with the situations that will inevitably arise with these types of people.... so in other words, i think you're on the right track..ARRR!!! skull ARRR!!!

Sorry for that little gripe fest. God - I can be a whiny bitch sometimes. wink I'm going to blame heat and hormones.

So anyhooters, things aren't really as bad as all that. Sure, some of the things that are going on are craptastic, but I have enough good stuff going on I should really quit the bitching. I got my first sale to Denmark this...

Hey, we're practically fucking neighbors now.

Short hair is pretty.
nopantsdave:
All of my lamps survived intact. I'm mostly unpacked already too. I've spent the last few days just kind of wanderingly aimlessly about the downtown area and trying to figure out where things are and how to get to them. I'm right near the pedestrian bridge, so when my parents were here we walked over to Kentucky....mostly just so they could say they had done it.
