So I haven't posted a blog in...well forever and I am now attempting to do it from my phone, which in all seriousness might turn into a ramble and disaster haha. What's been happening in my life lately? Nothing good actually. Since June things have just been spiraling more and more out of control and I can't seem to get a grip on it. Alcohol plays a large role in thar I have decided. Business has been slowing down a bit, or more so, people make appts, leave deposits but then never bother to show up or even call and let someone know. So then hours of my day most often are wasted when I could've been tattooing someone else who would've actually showed up. At first I thought this was a our shop problem but I have realized that this seems to be a very current scary trend amongst Tattooers in all of germany. So yea been making a third of what I usually make which means bills have fallen behind as well as rent at home and the danger of being evicted. I keep trying to get ahead but then I go out and binge drink and Bam! Money for bills is gone.....
I was recently stopped by the cops in my jetta and they deemed the car not street legal and had me turn in my plates until I change it to conform to german vehicle laws. So I haven't had a car to get me around. It sucks. I hate riding the train. My buddy had gone home to Texas to visit family and let me borrow his car for the time which ended in this on Saturday coming back from the airport and dropping my best friend of to move back to LA;
Little selfie afterwards lol:
We luckily walked away with with only a few minor scratches
Me and my wife wifehave decided to toget divorced after 2yrs of marriage and 8 years being together. Have been separated for about 4 months now and still coping with all that.
All in all life has kicked me with every chance it has gotten this year. I keep meeting girls who are just downright crazy or liars on top of it. I will be glad when this year is over and behind me and I can start a new chapter of it in 2015.
On a small positive note I might be tattooing at ink n iron next year in long beach which is a dream come true and should finally be getting out to travel and do some guest spots at other shops
So that's it for this rant. I'm sure it's way too long lol. Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year!!!!
