A random tattoo question
Most of the time when I tell people this they think it’s my imagination. But I swear it’s not. So I want to know if anyone else with tattoos has experienced this: Sometimes when my feet get really cold my tattoo on my foot hurts. Not my whole foot, just the tattoo. The skin feels…

Drama takes a left turn.

Damage control and new toenail polish
I’m thinking of a quote Heather sent me: “Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.” – Kurt Vonnegut Today is sad and scary – I feel lost and confused. I am processing a major change in my life.…

Life, going down the right tube
This is by no means meant to be a synopsis of my year – in fact, I’m leaving out some of the biggest stuff on purpose. Just a few random tidbits about time and how we choose to pass it. Thoughts on 2008: – In February I decided to chop my hair off and go…
