I bet you knew which song I was implying there. The forlorn vocals and searching lyrics filling your mind for a moment, turning your head into a radio. Or not. Makes things easier in this post if you just go along with whatever I say. :) It's been a while. Pull up a chair. I'll catch you up: If you missed the reference, I'm the small town girl who has jumped in the huge pond of Seattle. Headfirst, it feels like. Off of the really high diving board. I love it! Most of the time. I'm surrounded by very talented people, who are very kind to me. I'm pretty damn lucky, actually. But what followed me to the city is this sense of ineptitude. The talent pool is stunning around here! And so intricate, with the many social tide pools and gossip eddies. (had to continue that analogy). And people are BEAUTIFUL around here. Tall, and chiseled, and well-groomed (most of the time). Even the women. This is not hyperbole, there must be something in the water, I swear....
(I've been writer's blocked up. So today will contain the letters B, C, D, and E!) Psst! Hey! Ya you. Let me be your guide to a twisty world Just turn the corner of this craggy rock, point your curser on the eclectic forest Dive in! Cacophonous echolalia, jewels in the mud It’s business as usual here Jobs fly by overhead, some hold gems in their beaks Others have stinging ends. Look here! A fairy offers you transportation on a 2001 magic carpet It has a few miles on it, a little frayed at the ends Check the VIN number before he crabs your wallet! And in the grove wizards are weaving their words Standing on soapboxes Creating hullabaloo One has nailed a wood frame together, slapped a sign “The Wizard is In” Oh dear…do you hear that? The lascivious lizards and nylon-clad nymphs are having an orgy They wave lazily for you to join But if that’s not your thing, I suggest the Personal Pixie She has quite a list of Roy...
I come from a small but very tight knit family. Many holidays I've spent was just with my mom and dad. On both of my mother's and father's side I have quite a lot of celtic heritage. Irish especially (where the curly hair comes from...?). Which I felt made a celtic knot appropriate for this portrait. My parents have been married for nearly 30 years, and they are my base, they are why I feel as confident in myself as I do. But while they support me, I do sometimes feel like I get tied up with them, and that is because I'm 24 and I'm ready to live on my own.
