Losing Ground

chameleonhalo — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 22:17:08 +0000

How hard is for someone to actully pull their weight for once? For my roommate/brother it must be SOOO damn hard. Right now I am at work, true I should be working and doing what needs to be done, but I just ended with a rush that I pretty much did all by myself. I just don't give a fuck anymore! Wo0T! Starts out with the day before his fucking birthday, I thought I was going to be nice and get him a tattoo. But nope! That idea just flew back down my ass. One, the bastard DID NOT pay the bill on time like he should have, I HAD TO FUCKING REMIND HIM. Tell me that is not bullshit, then to make it even better, the 350 that mommy and daddy have given him to pay off his credit cards, well, it didn't go through. No fucking clue what that means. So fuck that! I try to be nice, but he has no fucking life. He whines and says noone treats him like an adult but guess what? HE SHOULD START ACTING LIKIE ONE FIRST! It is so hard to image that he honestly doesn't know what to do with life. I guess that I was blessed in having an idea of what to do but honestly, he is lost as they come. So come one now people...how am I suppose to keep him around? My parents side with him. Saying how could I possibly get around without him. You know what? I was also blessed with two feet and know how to ride the city bus---I am sure I will managed.

It get better....then a bit worse...

So this weekend, went down to Glasgow and got some ink done by Sammie. As I was sitting around waiting for my first tat (of the day) Kirby came up and asked if I had a sketch book on me. It came as a complete surprise. I nodded dumbly and handed him my sketch book. He started to flip through it. As he was flipping through it all I could think about were the shit drawings that were in there. Finally he handed back my sketch book. First he gathered that I liked to draw faces. Secondly, to help with my shading try using q-tips. I was just nodding the whole time dumbly. We both walked back over to the table where Sammie was working on my ship. He said. "If you stay around here much more you are going to get covered." I replied "Thats the idea". It also got mentioned that I was not going to get my arms done until I got done with college. Kirby then was like, yeah, you need to get a real job. I said I actually wanted to get into tattoos but wanted to take some more art classes. Kirby was like, well tattoos are a different way of art. It is different than actual drawing. And you have the potential. So after months of worrying if I had what it takes, just a few words of Kirby, gave me the boost I needed.

Now onto the shit part, we got our car towed. Cost fucking 105 to get it out. Motherfuckers kiss my ass!

Stan Rogers

I am here, listening to an old forgotten memory. Of a man that raised ships, traced one more line and an idiot I suppose. To most that I tell my musical preference, I tell them I was raised on drunken sailor songs. I don't think that is the case anymore. Stan Rogers is one of the artist that my dad listen to on long car rides and I would sit next to him as we traveled to where ever and sing along to these songs. I would be mad. I was a young girl so I could not sing the low bass notes that would be woven into the song, and dad would be able to whenever he pleased.

As I'm listening to this I think back to all the times my young self would asked questions. Dad, whats the Northwest Passage? He would explain it to me. Little did I know, but it made me excel in all history classes I would take involving exploration. The teacher would look dumbfounded and ask where I learned that. I would mumble my dad. It embarrassed me. Mostly when I moved to Kentucky. Most of the people would only know of the sea from the Florida coast. I knew it with a passion because thats where I grew up. It was always around me. I do not know why I was so ashamed to admit that I did not listen to Britney Spears, The Backstreet Boys or N sync like all of my other classmates. I had the folk bug. Thats what my parents had raised me on all my life.

So when I started to listen to music at my own accord it felt like a barrier with my parents, it was also the first part of becoming a teenager I guess. I found some bands that my parents and I could both listen to but it was never the same as those artist I had been raised on. Damn...where were these thoughts when I had to write reflective pieces for English?

OMG WTF TON!!!

Okay, I know someone read this...just don't know who. Well update on the shirt shit...hehe only one letter away bitches! Anyway, I found some thick paper at work (yeah, work is good for finding random ass supplies) so I cut out the design...much to my disapointment I cut the design too close to the edge and bits of it fell off. Anyway I still decided to take some paint to it...to see how it would turn out. Not bad for a first attempt. I am going to get some more shit from work tomorrow and go from there! Wish me luck!

Screw cardboard...

chameleonhalo — Thu, 30 Aug 2007 03:32:37 +0000

I had this really good idea. I have this long coat that I wear in winter, it completely black and keeps me warm. Well, I got this idea of taking a spray can to it. I would draw out a design (entwine's new logo) and then put it on cardboard and spray paint it on my coat and have a diffrent coat rather than just a normal black one. Great idea right? Well I get the cardboard from work, last night I drew out the design on the cardboard. Then tonight I <i>was</i> going to carve it out and in the morning test it out on some cloth before I touched my jacket. One little thing...this is satan cardboard, broke two box cutters AND a pairing knife AND a hobby knife blade. Needless to say the bitch can die and I trying to think of an alternative to cardboard...I wondering about that foamy shit that is maybe half a centimeter in width that I could get at hobby lobby or where ever. I already got my spray paint so the foam I guess is my next step. rawr,...so I bring a closing to SCREW CARDBOARD!!!>.<

My Attempt for the weekend...

I am a smoker, no shock to anyone right? Well, this weekend I am going to try and go a full 48 hours without smoking. No I am not quitting...yet. Due to my job I am constantly surrounded by smokers and I really do not think that I will be able to stop myself from smoking. So here it goes I am going to step outside smoke one cigeratte and then-no smoking for the weekend. Wish me luck

Back from the Concert (yeah this is late...)

chameleonhalo — Fri, 13 Jul 2007 05:02:20 +0000

Hello to all! So here I am writing on my way back to Kentucky. The concert was reallllllllly good. I met some awesome fuckers, rocked hard and met of all the 69 Eyes AND Wednesday 13. So start of the day, I woke up at Bruce’s house. Now, Bruce, he is a fucking cool guy! He was a friend of my Mom back when she was my age. He was a past biker guy from the 60’s talked to me about seeing Jimi Hendrix’s experience and compared tattoos. One story was he was getting one and the artist had a heart attack and still finished the tattoo and then went to the hospital. One thing is he did when we first walked in was ask if any of us smoked. He had one smoking room. It was really cool looking place. Anyway so we were chilling out at his house and left around two-ish. Went down to the venue and my brother and I went to Wendy’s. We ate a bit. Then after a while we went over there. We sat down and got in “line” after waiting there we had someone from the venue tell us where the line was in some back alley. So we went there and met up with some chicks. Talked to them for a bit, they were cool! After talking to one for about a half hour I had a wife, so they were just really friendly. Sadly none were on trig…but that change ^_^. I met me some trig people and they were cool people too! More on them later. Then met with some more people…then my wife and I had a kid! ^_^ My brother was the only dude in this group so I know he HAD to have a lot of fun! Also saw Lilmissspookiness from the forms.

So we get into the venue. The first band was alright. The lead singer kept on staring down random people in the audience. I really could not hear the vocals because the rest of the band was drowning him out. Then the second band was cool. At the end of the set the lead singer freaked out one of the bouncers because he jumped off of one of the high speakers. Then Wednesday 13 came on with a KICKASS set. It was the first time I saw him in concert and he was REALLY good. I ended up nicking Wednesday’s set list. My brother on the other hand got a set list from them AND Wednesday’s guitar pick. It was his birthday so he got it.

Then the main event came! The guys were SOOOOOO GOOD!! The songs were all awesome! Only thing that torked me was they didn’t play wasting the dawn and I love that song. *tear* I swear I felt like a little puppy with ADD because I would be watching Bazie play guitar then Jyrki would be doing some on the side so I kept on looking back and forth…I was not able to keep my eyes one place more than five seconds! The last of the set came ending with Perfect Skin and devils. I got Archize’s pick! I was stoked! Now all I need is one of Timo Timo’s pick and my collection of picks will be complete! MWHAHAHAHA!!! Ahem, anyway….I got to the meet and greet and they told us they could not do any signing…I have this sketch book, well several and every time I am done with one I get it signed and sort of retire so I still have one that I need to get signed…it just doesn’t feel complete without it.

Also I met with Wednesday for a minute; I got him to sign my set list that I nabbed. I also dropped my sharpie. I just was trying to pass it off like I did something really bad “Oh NO! The hold sharpie! The gods will smite me now!” Now that I look back I am like, dumbass. But then I told him I am okay because I have Acey’s tie. Wednesday was like yeah I know him! In the most sarcastic voice I could make I said “How would you know Acey?” and did a little cock of my head to the side. Wednesday then said “Ah, I have just met him a few times.” He was a cool guy.

So then I left and went back to Bruce’s house. I made a joke the night before about him not having any beer. He got me a 6 pack of corona! I was stoked. I had a couple and went to bed. It was all cool. Now the next concert I think I will be hitting up is Trashlight Vision and Wednesday 13 when they are on tour next time!

Cheers!
Mo

Hey guys. So here I am in Atlanta. Tomorrow is the 69 Eyes and Wednesday 13 concert. Today my brother and I drove nine hours and hit here. I hope to meet
and greet not only the bands but some of the people off the boards. So, the funny story of the trip so far. We were at a gas station, Andy was getting gas
and I was smoking. This gas station guy comes up and starts talking to me. He asked where we were from. I told him I was hailing from Louisville and my brother
from North Carlina. So he asked why were so far from home. I told him we were there for a concert. His eyes got really big and asked if we were the band. (We were
dressed sort of rock star-ish not really though) Told him no, but he still was really chatty. I finished my ciggarette and told him bye. Then he warned me of
the weirdos in the big cities and to watch my back. I had to laugh when I got in the car. Here we were in complete black on a 90 degree day, tattoos and a labret
piercing on each of us and yet their are weirder people out there..man, so wish my mom could have heard that one. Maybe she would have changed her mind about
me being a tattoo artist. Doubt it but I can dream. Which I will. I am getting off here and getting some sleep. Big day tomorrow. I will post more tomorrow.
Cheers!
Mo

Why smoking is bad for you.

So today once again, for the second time, I went apartment hunting. Lets say that it did not go over that well. I found the perfect place, 600, two bedroom, righ off of Bardstown. Then the guy said no smoking. Fine with me, I am an outside smoker, that is always how I rolled. So I asked, just to make sure, outside. He said if I had friends over only. He would never rent to anyone that is a smoker themsevels. Due to the fact in the past smokers had smoked inside when it rained or was too cold for their sorry asses. I am sorry but smokers, if you can't stand the elements, stop smoking. I mean Louisville? Honestly bitches, that city is the worst for smokers, might as well give it up if you cant stand smoking outside. So Hopefully I will get off of work Saturday so I can contuinue my search. Wish me luck, I move out July 15th cause of fish fuck.
