I write for the same reason I breathe - because if I didn't, I would die. ~Isaac Asimov

I kid.

I would love for this to be my new long-term home. I'm a long-term girl, or lady if you prefer, in everything I bother to take an interest in, do, pursue.

So what has happened thus far:

2 car accidents (yes I cried, and petted my car child, I don't particularly love it, but none-the-less it is mine)
Lost wallet. (But miraculously no one stole anything from me!)
Battling an ulcer and stomach infection.(On-going, must be 1/2 a year now, estimate)
Worked with a handful of my favorite designers. (all the concepts thus far are unsettling and shy of just "pretty")
Got to revisit friends that had fled here or will shortly. (I am selective & really do love my friend's work, they're talented!)
Got to bond further with newer friends. (or older acquaintances, photographers I collaborate with)
Basically met the entire cast of modelmayhem... (That was a riot, everyone is so sweet, I am pleased)
Oh & finally have seen gothic boys in the flesh so that urge has been satiated.
Went to Bondage Ball, Fetish Nation and checked out some clubs.
I quit drinking (no more alcohol, impressive)
Quitting smoking ciggies, slowly but surely.

I will at one point have to go to every Vegan place in the LA area. Oh my god, vegan food lust.

I'm going to keep it sub-level, maybe check out some Industrial joints and gallery shows. Socializing without liquor at nightclubs and bars now seems nonsensical so really, I need to reconfigure my socializing habits.

It's interesting, I'm happy I think, now this feels almost new. Not to be dramatic or that I am unhappy naturally, but the stress isn't over-riding my personality and energy as a person. My old job really was hell on earth, I tried, but sometimes the environment has absolutely nothing to do with you and you can't change it no matter the effort.

mmm. I hope to share some lovely things with you. I'm presently busy trying to be busy... so we shall see!
