Right. Been forever, many times I thought of replacing that journal, but never got around to it. I should've. This will be a touch shorter than it really needs to be, but it's essentially a less-depressing placeholder. I moved to New Orleans, finally, the only place that's ever truly felt like home despite never really having lived in her before. Met some cool people, and one who not only changed my life, but how I view myself, who showed me how all the pieces I had scattered within me fit together. Still haven't gotten them all connected and working, but I've grown an incredible amount, and continue to do so, almost exclusively because of her, with the "almost" put in there because some of it's me, as well...but that's pretty much it. For those interested, she does have an account on here, being a professional photographer, and a damn good one. Drowningwoman. Beautiful, intelligent, amazing, exacting. Her very existence raises the bar.
On to other things, I have a job, though I'm looking into getting something better. I have a place with a room of my own, albeit small, but at this point that's largely by choice, and I like my cave. Once it's fully organized it will be just enough room for everything I need...it's about 75% there atm, so really not bad. I don't get online much anymore, but I'm hoping that will change with a relative swiftness here soon.
My city treats me very well, and loves me as I love her. Things I need often end up provided by seeming coincidence and happenstance, quite the opposite of the way my life used to work, where everything I wanted or planned would get foiled by the same sort of random happenings. Not everything is chocolate and roses, not everything goes my way, and I fuck up now and again, but all things considered, life is much better than it has been in some time, and for a good while there, I'd say about four months-ish, it was better than it'd ever been. EVER. So...I can bitch, but I don't really have a whole lot of right to. Some, sure, but not a lot.
Not having read the other journal in forever, I forget the timeframe...so it may perhaps be news that my desires, and a few mystical workings, were realized in that my ex's boyfriend liked the job less than he thought, and couldn't find a place to live to save his life, and so returned here for an indefinite period, they may not move at all...or it could be next year. But I have more time, so that's good. I've seen my daughter several times since, in fact.
I have a lot of hope, for myself, and for other things. I await March with baited breath, but am going to seek to do as much as I can for myself and my life in the meantime.

Kabuki Star Extraordinaire in Theater of the Gods
For those of you that don't know, I'm not entirely certain myself of my sources, but to my knowledge a Kabuki Theatre was essentially an Eastern comedy in which all manner of terrible things would happen to the main character that were amusing to the audience, but would be horrific in real life. That's how I've felt for the past ten years. All plans and ambitions are foiled by seeming "coincidences" over which I have had little or no influence whatsoever...any time I am even content, to say nothing of happy, things align in such a way as to rip it from me, often in the harshest way possible. I can't count how many times I'd climb back up f
Rushed shoot, and rl madness
Yeah, so I'd been wanting to do a new shoot for bloody ever, just kept either not having time or forgetting, or simply not being motivated. Managed to pull one off last night, but didn't think it through at all beforehand as far as exactly what I wanted out of it, and seems to me that's a big part, apparently, 'cause it shows that it wasn't much of a preplanned shoot. Still, a few nice shots anyway, and some entertaining accidents that make it up regardless.
Primary reason I wanted to do a shoot is that as of Sunday I'm moving out, and will no longer have access to the good digital camera, or my own personal computer, though I hope to reme
FINALLY! The Lupine Shoot
So yeah, I finally got off my ass and did a bloody shoot! Felt good! This one's primarily by request, though I ran with it a little bit, for some decent werewolf stock. I wasn't really planning on doing shirtless for a little bit yet, but the one doing the requesting, well....let's just say it's only fair and leave it at that. So Genie, this is all for you, and so very, very sorry it took so long. Look 'em over and see if this is what you were wanting, I'm thinking about maybe going out and doing a second shoot for this after I get some feedback, primarily from you, on how to do some of it better.
For the rest of you....I'm alive and ba
Waxing political again, with damn good reason.

That's right, more screwed up, violent, cruel bullshit being undertaken for the simple sake of mindless entertainment in the form of random, unmitigated slaughter. What a piece of work is man, yes?
Sad thing is, people manage to desensitize themselves to such things by imagining that they're just dumb animals, like they don't feel pain, or don't matter, or are otherwise worthless. I did a project on coyotes for my ecology class in college, and found out they're damn near as smart

Irony...jumped back on here after having been gone for some time, reread that journal, and other than the bit about me playing Fable 2, it's all pretty much still completely true. I've come back around to a very similar place just recently, and again await March with baited breath. So...really, no new journal needed, just reapply this one. Plus the earlier comment I made, as I'm still looking for a place, and after that, a better job...but other than that, yeah.
