i gotta get me one a them phillipinos....

things my grandmother said. she actually said them, those words, put in that order. as though one could simply go out and purchase, or otherwise aquire a person who traces their physical origins to the islands of the phillipines. she also said, and i warn you, this is something no one should have to hear, but she said it, again, with the words that left her mouth, that if she were 60 years younger, she'd give that wife of Bruno's (Bruno being the early 30's handsome-ish handy man hired to paint the house and do some sort of lawn thingie to the...um..lawn) a good run for her money. well good for her. whatever floats your boat, I suppose.

Things I didn't do today include:

* buy lawn mower (electric)
* purchase groceries (i'm planning on adopting an all rice diet, to save future time wasted in this pursuit.)
* work on new t-shirt/grafitti stencils
* work on new tattoo design, so that I have something to go with at my consultation tomorrow, besides my incoherent train of thought.
* fly-by-night tanning (because regular, stable, safe equipment tanning isn't as fun)
* take panels and supplies to studio, in vain hopes of ever painting again, ever.


Things I DID do today include:

* waste a significant amount of time in bed, staring at the textured ceiling, thinking about who invented cooking, and how they figured it would taste better.
* spend 3 hours downloading ringtones for my cell (half of which didn't work)
* spend additional 45 minutes playing with above cell trying to decide what ring tones defines me as an individual, apart from the crowd (went with Fraggle Rock song in the end, Bubble Bobble was starting to get to me....)
* walk in the sunshine
* Laundry- see, I can do something productive too!


Things I may or may not do tomorrow include:

* Fly by night tanning
* Become psychological research guinea pig for a few hours
* AGM (I didn't forget, you can't yell at me FMR! i also did research too! I did!)
* Art openings
* consume adult bevereges until i can no longer function
* be brave, go to Ikea in search of picture frames

I'm workin on a piece to "fix" the ankle band that i was a bit dissapointed with, which had basically turned into a full calf piece! I'm really excited, but the sonest appointment I could get is October...Boo! but probably a good thing, I'll have time to save up and be really sure. It's gonna be a sillouette of parts of rome, and an SPQR roman militart standard flag that's all rippy and torn up, and then flames burning up to my knee almost...the ankle band will still be there, but it will be surrounded by black burney shillouettey stuff.

oh, nelly! Sounds bea-u-ti-ful! With the flames and burnanation. If I had my way with the world I would: a) have a sleeve down on my right arm or b) have my back tatoo extend all the way up my back and around one shoulder.
