We're moving!

Lucas is assisting with getting flawedartist.com up and running. Things should be live by the end of the week. w00t!

*pownce*

My awesome friend Karen just send me an invite to Pownce, which is a new way to share things with your friends (Kinda like Twitter but on crack). If you already have an account, add me as a friend. Not on Pownce? I have a handful of invites...

In other news, I'm thinking about shutting this blog down and finally redoing my website. I'm behind the times, kids. And my old domain name was waaaaay too long.

Oh, and for those of you who have yet to see transformers, go see it. For nostalgia sake.

Treasure hunt in the Castro

For those of you who don't already know, I'm a pirate. Well, I like sailing and treasure hunts. The rum, not so much (I'm more of a champagne girl).

At any rate, I was bored Saturday night. Really bored. To the point where my choices we to start working at 7pm, or find something to do. Thankfully my good friend Brian responded to my text message and invited me out for drinks and dinner with some of his co-workers.

The evening began at Blondie's (which in my opinion is the only place to go in the city for a good martini). We hung out and waited for 9pm to roll around and enjoyed their "Deep Blue Funk". Yummy! By 9 we walked over to Limon to wait for the rest of the Facebook crew. By 9:20, we gave up, walked up and down the street trying to figure out what to do next.

It was at this point I had an idea. We go on a treasure hunt. And who are we to say what treasure we would find, other than we would know it when we found it. So, it was on to the Castro! Yarrrr!

Treasure #1: Dinner

We started walking, not sure if we were hungry or not. But more hoping to stumble onto something that seemed interesting. We walked up Church to Market and started looking into the windows of all the places we passed. It was decided that if we were to stay out and possibly drink, we should at least have something to eat. Initially we walked into Sweet Inspirations, but decided we needed real food so we walked into Lime. Just enough food to satisfy our stomachs (I need to say just how much I love the mini-burgers here) and just about $20 for three plates. Not too shabby!

Treasure #2 : Desert

I really wanted to go back to the bakery we were initially in just because the mouse looked so good and they seemed to have a good selection of tea. But Brian informed me of a Ice Cream place that had all sorts of interesting flavors (like Guinness Ice cream!?), so we headed over to Naia for some samples. Even though we had talked about getting cake, we ended up getting orange chocolate and dark chocolate ice cream. But while we were walking over there we noticed something else going on that looked promising.

Treasure #3 : Dancing!

What's this? Ladies night at The Bar On Castro? And only a $3 dollar cover change? Dude, count me in!! When Brian and I first walked I got a kick out of all the Lesbians dancing around and flirting with the teenish looking gay boys. Not to mention that they were practically streaming gay porn on the monitors. We hit the bar and I watched in horror/excitement as the bartender made my drink with 3 parts vodka, 1 part redbull. From here on out the night could only go two ways, really good or really really baaaad.

We walked around for a little bit, chatted with a few bar goers, and after I had enough of my *very* strong drink I felt like dancing. At which point I got to shake it with a beautiful girl by the name of Arwen. Brian and I left at a reasonable time, and very fulfilled with our hunt for fun on a Saturday night.

Everything I never said

I don't think you realize just how much I miss you. You're at such a fragile state in your life and I no longer can just hop in my car and come pick you up when you need me. Even though I'm not in arms reach - I'm still here. I'll always be here for you when you need me.

---

I am so proud of you. You've accomplished so much in the past few years. I do wish I could have been there when you got the keys to your first house. You're such an amazing kid, far cooler than I'll ever be. And I'm so lucky to have you as family.

---

You are the reason I am where I am today. I have more respect for you then you could ever imagine. And to know that you've finally found someone who sees just how amazing you are makes me very happy.

---

There are lot of things that I never told you that I should have. However, in spite of everything that has happened, I hope you know how important you are to me. How much I loved you, how much I want to see you happy, how much you deserve to find someone to love just as much as I loved you.

[more to come]
