FINALLY on-line down here in VA, but we are STARVING & have a bunch of stuff to do.  I have so much I want to write about, but time is working against me, at least for now.  I do hope you are all well.  Take care, I’ll be back later.  Much love & many blessings to you all!

Still having problems with Cablevision, hopefully I can get back on-line before the move.  If not, I will see all of you when I get down there.  Had my hand surgery on Monday.  I’m slowly getting better.  Very tender, hurts like hell at times, but I’m managing.  Bobby has been a huge help.  We’re at Jay’s with my friend Elisabeth, so I really can’t talk.  Will catch up as soon as I can.  Much love & many blessings to you all!

I have returned!  I will probably spend some time on Sunday catching up with all of you, since my dance card for tomorrow is full & I’m about to crash in bed (CRAZY day at work today).  But I am here, I have missed all of you terribly & I cannot wait to get back in touch with each of you.  In the meanwhile, I did want to share a piece that has been swirling in my mind for the past week or so.

All the colors in the world blend together.  They are all connected.  Every color is within every color.  The yin and yang blend.  They dance and swirl and become intwined, they are one.  There is a beautiful harmony that crescendoes and crescendoes endlessly without becoming deafening.  The sun does not fare to the brightness and beauty of my Amun-Ra.  Lightness and darkness, opposite ends of the spectrum are now permanently connected.  Music and color, taste and touch and smell, all the senses culminate here: and it is a glorious, overwhelming, beautifully touching, infinite symphony.

I have not abandoned you!  Cablevision has abandoned me   I should be up & running again tomorrow.  Gotta go……Hanging out with Bobby, Jay & Jenny.  Will catch up later.  Much love & many blessings to you all!

Good evening!  So, we’ve had more talks about DSC & stuff & I am loving it!   Jay asked me about handling all the merchandising & adverising & what not.  That’s fine.  Today, in fact, I actually thought about a huge press-release/unveling/big show to say “Hi, we’re here!” type thing.  I know all the right people to invite, too.  And it helps that Bryan works for Variety….That will come very much in handy when the time comes.  Jay is about to SERIOUSLY research up-start costs & stuff.  It’s cool, but it’s kinda scary.  Stuff like this had been nothing more than a pipe dream for me, for us to be THIS serious about it is…Well, kinda overwhelming, but not in a bad way.    If/when all this happens, you guys are all invited to the unveiling & if you want any custom work done, just say the word.  We have come up with some incredible, truly original ideas.  I REALLY want to say, but I’m afraid of making these ideas public & then we lose our trademark.

I do want to talk about Bobby for a minute.  I cannot tell you just how incredible he is.  He’s going to try & move down with me to VA, which I am totally psyched about.  However, I wasn’t too keen on the idea of him moving in with me so quickly.  So, I told him that.  I told him that I want nothing more than to come down, but I was just uncomfortable with the idea, and that he could sign a short-term lease for an apartment of his own & then after some time, we could take it from there.  Let me tell you, he was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.  He had no problem with that, totally understood my point of view, was not going to push the issue & asked if I wouldn’t mind helping him to find his own place.  Wow!  Someone who DOESN’T take me for granted, that’s a miracle!   And…There have been some “issues.”  Remeber, it’s been 2 1/2 years of NOTHING for me, plus I can count on 1 hand the times I’ve had CONSENTUAL sex.  And Bobby has been simply amazing, checking to see if I’m ok.  Stopping if I’m the least bit uncomfortable…Just awesome.  I cannot believe this….I have never been with someone so wonderful.  I never dreamed someone like that would ever love me.  That was what my friends were supposed to have & I was just supposed to be envious.  It is so incredible for me.  I am so happy.  Sorry, I just had to share my joy

Well, I’ll shut up for now & go check everybody else’s site….Good way to procrastinate from packing   Take care, everyone.  Have a beautiful evening.  Much love & many blessings to you all!

Just quickly…We had the first official meeting of DSC last night….Jay, Bobby & I hung out, ate, drank lots o’ coffee, planned things out, sketched, talked, passed a lot of gas & had an awesome time.  I actually have 3 designs I need to go sketch out now.  I LOVE these guys.  They are so positive & so much fun to be around.  Jay even made a remark about me being his sister in law one day   The funny thing is Bobby is 6’6″, he is big, and he’s black.  Jay is about 6’6″, maybe 6’7″, skinny & white.  They are such a site & seeing them call each other brothers is…Interesting   The 3 of us get along famously.  This is going to be good   I need to draw & then go to bed.  I’m doing kennel tomorrow morning, even though we are closed, and I REALLY need some sleep.  Take care everyone.  Hope you are all having a fun time watching fireworks!  Much love & many blessings to you all!

So, the truck ran out of gas AGAIN the other day.  Turns out that the “new” fuel pump isn’t new at all, it’s refurbished!  It’s a piece of shit.  Thankfully both Bobby & Jay came to my rescue (A cop actually came over to help me & stayed with me & helped us work on her a little bit).  Jay worked on the truck, he also found a spark plug tester still attatched to the chassis   We got her up & running.  So, then they followed me to the gas station to be sure I was ok.  As I was pumping the gas & even after, we were just talking.  First about my plans for the truck, then about tricking Bobby’s car out, then we just got into ideas for customs.  This then evolved into custom bikes & the ideas & stories were flying.  We ended up talking at the gas station for hours.  The ideas we came up with were incredible!  We then talked about creating our own custom car & bike shop.  We’re calling it Dark Side Customs.  We are serious about this too.  Bobby e-mailed us a copy of his business plan from his jewlery company so we had a template for the shop.  Jay said he’ll teach Bobby & I mechanics (A lifelong dream for me! ).  The ideas were endless.  Granted, this won’t be for a few years b/c we’ll need time to save up & pool all our money, but this is looking & sounding REALLY good.  I am SOOOOOO excited!  Here are a few examples of the logo (Bobby made several depending on the type of vehicle/style of modification)

So cool!   Anyway, have a GREAT holiday weekend, everyone.  Much love & many blessings to you all!
