My kitchen is somewhat back together, and tonight I made a real meal for the first time in god-knows-when.
- Grilled then roasted pork loin
- Baked sweet potatos
- Veggie salad
it was gooooooooooooood.

flooring still not done, but still so close.

I finally talked to my brother, and if he can find the drawings he did of the tattoo design, getting my tattoo should not be problem. He’s pretty sure it’s in the shop, and he’s pretty sure that the owner will let him in tomorrow*. Also, I found out he has a myspace site. On it, he has a meme in which he states, among other things, that the last time he had sex was yesterday.
Let’s file that under “things I never need to know about my brother.”
*have I covered this here? Brief synopsis: my brother worked for Eric (aka: total fucking asshole loser), who, one day, decided that paying rent on the tattoo shop was no longer priority numero uno. Landlord is pissed, refuses to renew the lease, locks them all out, and seizes all the stuff inside. My brother is in the process of negotiating a lease with the landlord to open up his own shop in the same location, with a different name. There’s all sorts of bullshit he has to go through first, and Eric is contesting the whole “seizing of property” thing in court, but I can’t see where he has a leg to stand on - he owes the landlord something like $8000. So while my brother doesn’t actually have the lease in hand, it should soon become a done deal.
My brother will be a small business owner. Frightening.
other funny part of the conversation
ESC: so how is eric taking this?
bro: Oh, he’s thrilled, actually. couldn’t be happier for me.
ESC: really?
bro: NO, he’s fucking PISSED!

Mmmmm - nothing beats a good dinner after not being able to cook for a while.
‘GRATZ on your Bro joining the business community! Does your Bro do Celtic knotwork at all? Does he have his own website/gallery of his stuff? (I’ve been wanting one for a long time.)
That’s great! Glad your bro is becoming a business owner. And it’s something he loves to do.
Dinner sounded great!
Dude, I think I’m gonna like your brother. And I mean that in a very platonic sense.
Your bro sounds cool. And he seems to be a smart ass. Wonder where he gets that from?
Hopefully the business thing goes well for him. So where’s the link to his MySpace site? We can all run there and tell stories about you that he’d consider TMI.
I will not be posting the myspace link here, as he uses his real name, which will lead to MY real name. I know most of you already know my real name, but I’d like to keep it from the rest of the internets.
Oooh, cool. I’m still working on getting Ryan a tattoo. It’s like an ongoing project that we never get around to. But now I want my tattoos re-colored and fixed up.
It’s probably never going to happen, but if it does, I’ll definitely keep your bro in mind.
My mom has just invited me over for coffee and bundt cake, and I TOTALLY thought of you.
Oh! It’s a kekk!
heehee…one of my all time favorite movies.
“what you MEAN HE DON’T EAT MEEAAATT???”
“It’s OK. I make lamb”
