You can see I focus a lot on my pup
Saturday I went to Only You Tattoo and got about half of the color done. I thought she was going to do the whole thing, but after almost 4 hours she quit on me (I know, seriously…j/k). Here are some pics:
The last picture was taken on my iPhone this morning and isn’t very good. But, you get the gist.
Going back in a month and a half to finish it up. Yay! I kind of like the way it looks half done. And the shading is incredible!
Have a great Monday!
Getting it finished
Watching True Blood and knitting
I just listed these. I like to share my excitements with ya’ll. Here is a pic, they’re fun. Get them here.
And, I hope you all have an absolutely wonderful weekend!
I have been very selfish this week, but in a good way. I haven’t hung out with anyone and other than going into the office, I haven’t left my house (I did walk Chico, don’t worry ya’ll).

This is the first year of my life, pretty much, where I haven’t felt like I was going to die of sadness and depression. This is the first year I have felt extended periods of hope and contentment. Ya’ll, it has been amazing. Which is why, this week has been so scary for me. I am afraid of spiraling back into that state of hopelessness and I didn’t know if I would make it back out. In spite of all this, I have kept doing the right things, and talking to people, even though I totally isolated myself all week (which is usually not the right thing). I think I just needed some time to feel my feelings. By keeping myself so busy hustling around and not feeling sorry for myself, I never scheduled any time to breathe and grieve since the break up.

Last night, instead of going to metal smithing, I came home, took like an hour nap and then sat in my bed and watched True Blood Season 1 while making jewelry and knitting. And it was awesome.
I’m starting to feel better. The sun is coming out again :)
So, I have discounted most of my stud earrings from $10 to 7$. Here are some. My favs are the little speech bubble hearts. I really love them!
Get them all here.
Have a wonderful rest of the day :)
I don’t know if any of you listen to This American Life, but I do. Sunday’s episode was about super powers and the question, “Would you rather be able to fly or be invisible” was posed. I love this because I have pondered this question to myself many times.
Why would I rather be invisible? I am terribly afraid of heights. Even though I probably couldn’t fall because I am flying and the fear of heights is really the fear of falling, still. And, if I was invisible, I could just sneak on to planes and stuff.
Which brings up another point. This lady, who was interviewed, said that everyone who was really honest with herself would chose invisibility so she could steal. While I agree sneaking onto planes is stealing, I wouldn’t go on a theifing spree. That’s just not my thing. Seriously. I think it would just be nice to disappear for a while sometimes. Or go do something and do it anonymously.
Which would you pick and why?
