The Boy poses in the living room in his recently purchased vintage items from “Red Light”.

I ordered a temporary tattoo kit ages ago and decided to try to make a tattoo yesterday.

I found a fairly decent drawing of grapes. I would like the real tattoo to be colored, but I thought I could experiment with this.

Result: blegh! The ink showed up on the “tattoo” paper as dots, and they don’t dry. At all. So much for that idea.

I didn’t realize at the time that this is actually a c.d. on top of a record that I was taking pictures of. Whoops. That c.d. is hilarious–hours of James Brown grunting and squealing. The songs pretty much all sound the same.

My mother bought me this Edward Scissorhands tee shirt. Yesterday was the first day I’ve worn it. I thought the red bra underneath amped up the tacky factor.

It was a beautiful sunny day yesterday, so we took the animals to the dog park. In all of the pictures of my children, they are running away from me. They don’t especially like to be photographed.

Mmmm…blue skies. What a glorious thing.
I’m going to try my best to convince the Boy to finish my LED hoop today. I may go to a thrift store that pays for used clothes and get rid of some stuff. We’ll see. They rejected three garbage sacks filled with my clothing when I first moved to Seattle and I’ve never quite gotten over the pain.
It was just a bunch of crappy clothes, but still, I distinctly remember the guy sneering at me, “We don’t take Old Navy clothes because they’re already cheap.”
The pain! The agony! There are no Old Navy clothes in the selection I am getting rid of now. There is, however, a satin dress from Forever 21. Forever 21 is cheap, will I be turned down? Will they shout, “WE DON’T TAKE FOREVER 21 CLOTHES, THEY ARE ALREADY CHEEEEEAAAAP!”
I’ll just have to wait and see. And brace myself for rejection.
