Me (Erik)

This is just a place where I just ramble on about nothing probably important to you but at some moment of time it was actually important enough for me to make the effort and jot it down. I’m anti-social like that. Or because I was bored and felt like torturing others at the moment and thought I would share the wanderings on which my mind takes me.

I caved in to social pressure. I have had enough clients at the tattoo shop (and a few friends and family) ask where I went online, so I created accounts back on MySpace and Facebook.

I’m sure I’ll regret it eventually, but it seems a lot of clients (and friends and family) are actually part of the social… and by social I don’t mean Zune.

If you’re on one of these (and I know some of you are!) feel me up if you’d like.

Until next time…

I wish I had hid his towel….

Found my towel

If you’re from the U.S., I hope you have a safe and sane Independence Day.

Until next time…

My brain needed a rest, so I got this from Alexander.

Apparently I haven’t seen that many of the “Top 100 Movies”.

Using the Entertainment Weekly list of the top 100 movies from the last 25 years:
- Bold the movie if you’ve seen it.
- Put asterisks next to the movies you’ve seen and really liked. If you saw a film and hated it, cross it out.

Happy 11th Anniversary, my Husbear.

Happy Anniversary

I love you more than you will ever know.

Hand
An idea I totally stole from an image in a Google search.

From then…

Us in 1998
Oldest picture I could find of us together, circa February 1998.

Through now…

Us in 2008
Almost the newest picture I could find of us together, circa June 7, 2008.

… and into the future.

roses

I love you.

Until next time…

I was going to post a picture of how scruffy I’m looking these days, but thought that made for a depressing start to the work week.

Instead I decided to post a picture of someone getting cleaned up.

shower time
Rub-a-dub-dub…

Have a good Monday!

Until next time…

I’ve been sucked in to yet another “thing” to keep me from being focused on anything. I finally had to see what Twitter was all about. Now I’ve started “tweeting”.

Something else to do with my phone during the day now, besides actually texting my friends and buddy. What could be more egotistical of me than posting random “where I ams” and “what I’m thinkings” during the day. Wait, I guess I do that with my blog already somewhat.

One of these days someone will wonder why so many people can’t focus… ooh, another tweet….

Hit me up if you are a tweeter.

Until next time…
Erik
