It's a sad day when you know that your dog is eating better than you are. Or maybe my budget is just that schewed. Either way, I damn sure can't afford the vet bills for another canine digestive problem, so here we are.
Business is tanking. We've lost three clients in a week, ostensibly (and hopefully) because of the summer slowdown and not just because...

Sorry to hear about your mom. I am in the middle of what seems like United Nations negotiations with this girl....but its all in my head, I think way too much. Sorry about your business...I am just a mere public servant and have no idea of business, so I can't comprehend what goes on, but I hope it turns around for you.

There are few things more fun than defacing public property with large inflatable penises. Allow me to explain...
About a year ago a huge, soul-sucking developer came into the tiny little lake community where my family has a cabin, drove everyone out, ruined all the small businesses, and leveled it all to build McMansion monstrosities. And now that everything's built, they hosted "Home-a-rama" this weekend...

That is the coolest thing ever, you should of got a video camera and filmed the people as there were pulling up that would have been great.

So the good news is that I am now freshly tattooed and it is fabulous (dragonfly on right hip, shaded so it looks like it's flying up my side). The bad news is that my digital camera is still holding out on me. Prude.
The WORST news is that my favorite tattoo place, Alternative Arts (on Central Ave. in Charlotte) is shutting down, and the...

I go to that tattoo place on South Blvd (can't remember the damn name now) and Chris is a really good artist. Any idea what the theme to your set will be? Why Chapel Hill? You should shoot it on top of the Bank of America building or the Mint Museum.

dragon tats are cool! congrats for your photoset. cant wait to see it!
You know, I feel some new ink coming on. They tell you that shit is addictive, but I guess I won't really realize that until I'm 85 and tucking my heavily tattooed boobs into my belt (If they would reach that far...wishful thinking I suppose).

Family Business
My father is calling me again
to say how well the business is going.
He recites numbers
with the awestruck reverence
of a child memorizing psalms,
and he has forgotten
