dissect a trillion sighs away, will you get this letter?

friday night was fun. i went to see hell boy 2 and wanted back to back at the drive-in over on summer, it was cool. i haven't been to a drive-in since ~middle school so it was cool to go again. met a bunch of jay's friends who were all real cool, but the whole experience didn't really live up to our expectations. maybe because we went to see hell boy...haha. i don't suggest wasting your money on it, though it can be slightly entertaining if you are a little intoxicated. however, i was eaten alive by mosquitoes and i am still itching. i wasted most of saturday morning/afternoon passed out on benadryl - it is like a tranquilizer for me.

otherwise a boring weekend. i need a hobby or something, i feel like i'm wasting my life being unproductive. i guess there are worse problems in the world to have, but this is killing me. ML and i tried to go lay out by the pool for a while but the sun was only out everyone now and then, mostly overcast, and it started to rain so we called it quits. i don't think i have ever watched as much food network/law and order/history channel in my life. worthless.

quote of the day: i don't care if you're the freaking sugar plum fairy, you still have to work! - ML about an incompetent employee. positive discrimination at its best. we went to the the blue plate cafe and i ate my weight in carbs, but it was wonderful. i have decided that ML and i are kindred spirits...i swear, we are the same person, just born at a different time in a different place.

i went to sit at starbucks for a while, to read and unwind, and i miss home. coffee shops are always great, but there always feels like there is something off at a new one. the people, the memories, the history...i miss having that accessible anytime i want it, just by sitting down for a cup of coffee. i miss my family, and i wish they knew how much they meant to me, even though we are so different. i try to tell them every time i talk to them, but i feel like the meaning is lost in translation sometimes. next summer, i really think i need to go home. it can't come soon enough.

less than two months until The Glass Passenger and i'm stoked. i played in photoshop for a while and edited some pictures from April and I's glass passenger photoshoot at our hotel outside delphi. nothing extraordinary, but i like it.




i also downloaded a ton of brushsets and have been editing a ton of pictures from greece, warped, and other random stuff from the last six months, so look for that soon. scratch that, i'll put a couple of little one's i've screwed around with up now. just superimposing images, adding color and other elements to black and whites and just modifying colors. new stuff will be much more exciting, i promise.'

Last, but not least, before I left Austin I got a new piercing. Yes, that makes a round dozen - all of which are on my face or ears, thank you very much. I'm happy with what I have right now, but I'm sure I'll want something else soon. I got a snug/anti-helix...so it will be at least 6 months before it is healed, so nothing else until this...well no piercings at least. check it -
