Did some work for a guy that rock climbs and he's getting a footprint for each country he climbs in. Eventually they'll trail up and around his arm.The bottom two are mine. On the right is America represented by the Native American Thunderbird, and on the left is Vietnam represented by the gold star that appears on their flag. #tattoo #handpoketattoo #handpoking #handpokedtattoo #skinart #bodyart #footprint #footprinttattoo #vietnam #vietnamstar #vietnamesestar #vietnamtattoo #nativeamerican #thunderbird #instablog

Because of Beauty

I came across this in old files on my computer, the file was filled with old poems and quotes I had written all over my bedroom wall as a teenager. When we had to paint over it all to sell the house I wrote everything down to save it.

I don't know who wrote this, I can't remember. But it's pretty wonderful.

"I think I'm an onion because every time I get what I want another desire wrestles me and I think

that underneath this is another thought and story playing at ego

I think I don't matter

and that scares me because of beauty"

Figure Model Moment

I was modeling today for an art workshop. It was a nude reclining pose and I happened to be wearing a necklace with a large blue stone. So I had Celine Dione stuck in my head all afternoon...along with this:

heh.

Alanis Morissette - Fear Of Bliss (Subtitulos en español)

"Fear Of Bliss"

My misery has enjoyed company
And although I have ached
I don't threaten anybody
Sometimes I feel more bigness than I've shared with you
Sometimes I wonder why I quell when I'm not required to
I've tried to be small I've tried to be stunted
I've tried roadblocks and all
My happy endings prevented
Sometimes I feel it's all just too big to be true
I sabotage myself for fear of what my bigness could do
Fear of bliss and fear of joyitude
Fear of bigness (and ensuing solitude?)
I could be golden 
I could be glowing 
I could be freedom
But that could be boring
Sometimes I feel this is too scary to be true
I sabotage myself for fear of losing you

Fear of bliss and fear of joyitude
Fear of bigness (and ensuing solitude?)

This talk of liberation makes me want to go lie down
Under the covers til the terror of the unknown is gone
I could be full 
I could be thriving 
I could be shining
Sounds isolating
Sometimes I feel this is too good to be true
I sabotage myself for fear of what my joy could do

Fear of bliss and fear of joyitude
Fear of bigness (and ensuing solitude?)

Darcy a day or two after surgery (the tshirt is better than a cone of shame) she wanted attention so she rolled over onto my feet, I look down and this is what I see. Plus she was on a lot of pain killers so I'm pretty sure she was high as a kite. But that just makes her face even funnier. She healed up nicely after a tough time and is bouncing around happily again. #boxerdog #boxer #dog #dogsofinstagram #instaboxer #instadog #boxerlove #cutedog #pets #petsofinstagram #derp #trippingballs #high #drugs #instablog

I finally managed to get a photo of Darcy and Asha hanging out together on the stairs. They do this all the time but usually scatter as soon as I try to take a photo. #boxerdog #boxer #dog #boxersofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #instaboxer #boxerlove #balinese #balinesecat #siamesecat #siamese #cat #gato #kitty #neko #meow #catsofinstagram #instacat #catagram #pets #petsofinstagram #instablog
