For whom

There was message that came to me in my dreams - This early mornin' hours - Way dark and lonely in the room and outside only the occasional  automobile - Not so much a message from god, or some ''outer limits '' to tell me the ''truth of man'' - Just a simple ''show ya how to'' So as not to keep on worryin- ''Don't look into the sun'' - tho I do anyways , and now left with an imprint of orange wherever I so dare to look- The sun shines upon my face- How beautiful - How beautiful.. Wednesday morn at my favorite restaurant watching a man get tossed out and about - ''Bloody Korean baster! Found refuge in the bread Factory ''gain''  he exclaims With his fist raised yelling, and cursing - Place crowded and him shouting ''I will be back !'' ''I will come back!''  As for now, I finish my muffin and coffee Joyce. Dedalus. B...

An unfulfilled wish or just a dream

H ad another interesting dream last night. In the dream a friend of mine was getting married. The only thing that seemed weird or should I say laughable was her whole wedding had been thrown on something like a dollar store budget. The people attending were all given gifts, though I only remember the gifts groomsmen were given. They were each given a pair of dollar store underwear, and they were so happy with them! I remember them opening up their boxes and pulling out what looked like black velvet underwear or some kind of soft looking underwear. I mean they were nice looking undies. And at the end of the wedding people were all apologizing to her for the wedding being thrown on a dollar store budget. I felt like I should apologize as well. I went over and told her how sorry I was, and she said not to be. She said she was happy with the way everything turned out and wouldn't have changed a thing. And if she had to do it all over again, she would do it the same way! The next da...

Ma'am vs Miss

Women I think of any age don't like being called Ma'am . It's funny how in the south it's used as a sign of respect. And the British use it as a term of address for high ranking female officers or the Queen. Here in New York most, if not all women see it as referring to them being old. I find it strange that depending on how I'm dressed or how my hair is colored will usually determine if I am called Miss or Ma'am, For me is goes deeper then it being an age reference thing. It' has become a pet peeve of mine. I absolutely cannot stand the word! Mostly because  everyone here in New York uses it incorrectly!.I remember some years ago I was in a CVS store and one of the employees kept calling me Ma'am. Mind you she was older then I was. It really was driving me up the wall, especial since I was only 22 or 25 at the time. I know some of you are thinking well their just trying to give good customer service and be polite. I get it,but good customer service is...

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes

I've been giving a lot of thought to the Blythe hobby lately.Thinking about how much it's changed and how I've changed along with it. I remember dolls being a lot cheaper then they are now. My first doll wasn't even that expensive and I was so new to the hobby I didn't even know there was a difference. I didn't know that some dolls cost more because of their base. I knew nothing about what the base of a doll was or make or the year it was created. I just remember going on eBay and looking up Blythe dolls. I remember seeing some that were more expensive then others and just thinking it must just be because some people valued their dolls and wanted more money then others, lol. There were descriptions like this is a such and such and It meant nothing to me. Mostly because I was so new to the hobby I didn't understand Anniversary, SBL or RBL differences,  I just thought a Blythe was a Blythe.  My first Blythe had an Emily in the addict theme. Man, ...

Some of my own facts Jack

I normally don't write post about racism, but I have been noticing a disturbing trend on social media more and more lately. Someone who works for NYLON magazine put out a comment meme that said and I quote,'' These are the facts: Things that don't exist - Racism against white people'' I usually don't comment back on things like that on social media cause I feel like if you are posting such ignorant stuff or agreeing with it, then my chances of having you see the light of day on how incorrect that comment is will be lost. But  I'm just so feed up with the blinders and propaganda that is going on in this country, that I did comment back. I told whoever wrote that comment that it was the stupidest thing I have ever read. And that racism exist in every culture and every race!. I really feel like TV, Social Media  and now Magazines like these are Just fueling ignorance in this country and around the world. For instance making a blanket statement saying ...

What If You Have Already Fulfilled Your Potential And None Of Us Noticed

What If  You Have Already Fulfilled Your Potential And None Of Us Noticed-  I read that the other day and it really resonated with me. It was written by an artist, I'm not sure of his full name. I found one of his pieces of art on one of Hi- Fructose magazines websites. They only had his first name which was David. He had that quote written across one of his pieces of art. It basically sums up how I feel about my art career.  I often sleep with my phone by my bed and sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and look at whatever messages or comments people have left me. Last night I woke up at 2am and there were these two woman having a conversation on one of my Instagram pictures. One lady put her friend in the comment saying ''I think you would like this'' She was referring to one of my pieces of mixed media art I did. The other lady comments back that she might make it her next tattoo. I had very mixed feeling on the whole thing.On one hand...
