STIFF PEAKS

I walk on my tip toes when I'm barefoot, blow spit bubbles when bored, and drool puddles in my sleep. I wear my heart outside my chest and fail at first impressions. I'm fickle. At least once every year I have to very seriously talk myself out of enrolling in clown college.

I totally fell asleep on the table. To sleep during a shin tattoo while metal is blaring through the stereo deserves a medal. It's never a good idea to get tattoos the day after you get wasty face. But we needed to give @mariopartyprincess a proper New Orleans send off. Words can't describe how much I'm going to miss this beautiful lady. We've been through so much together in the past 14 years, it kills me that she won't be here in person to call me out on my bullshit, no one can snap me out of my crazy like she can. 😹😹😹 I love you Melanie, dammit Los Angeles (and Ryan!) you better take of my girl. At least she has a lucky cattoo to be by her side for always...👊 😹😽😻😻 Cattoos by the amazing @tattoosbycornbread! (at Abracadabra Tattoo)

I've been finding out more and more over the past few months that many people never received a wedding invitation. It breaks us hearts. More importantly New Orleans postal service sucks. We love y'all and wish that every single one of you were there. Photo by the amazing @abbyjewelvo (at Dauphine Street)

On January 1st, this amazing man celebrated his 27th birthday. For the past seven years I have watched him grow and blossom into the man he has become and it's all pretty overwhelming when I look back on it all. There are not enough words to describe just how much I love him. Watching him flourish into the hilarious, thoughtful, and diligent man that he has become has been inspiring. Every single day he goes out of his way to study and learn something new, and every day he pushes me to be a better person. There would be no Olive Oyl without her Popeye. "To know Lloyd Dobler is to love him." From the bottom of my soul, I love you @babychris0, Happy "belated" Birthday Chéri. (at if you're a bird, i'm a bird)

I'm impossible to buy a gift for, it's a fact I've always been aware of. I love gifting and if you ask anyone that has ever received one from me they would tell you my gifts are always thought out and pretty great. Saying this, I must admit, I've been completely outdone. This is the most beautiful and amazing gift I've ever received. I'm blessed to be loved so much. I was crying like a baby! Thank you @babychris0, I love you more than words could ever express. You did good my darling. Merry Christmas loves! (at if you're a bird, i'm a bird)

Happy 32nd Anniversary to the most amazing parents a gal could ever ask for. They solidify my belief in eternal love and in marriage. They are role models for commitment and unselfish devotion. They have taught me that love isn't easy but worth every fight. It was a union that almost never came to be, but as I've learned myself, destiny has a way of teaching you what true love really is. I learned the hard way, as did my parents, but without their wisdom I would have gave up on love years ago. My Mom and Dad have struggled, sacrificed, and fought through every hardship by each other's side... they truly are the strongest people I have ever known. Too many times they have been dealt the shittiest of hands and if I could I would create a world for them where pain felt like kisses and work meant laughing uncontrollably. No matter how stubborn my Dad can be, or how officious my Mom gets... they are undoubtedly perfect for each other. I love you Giovanni and Joan Marie!! Seriously, thank you<3

I got these amazing pieces commissioned from the awesomely talented @daniellanghans as a house warming present to @babychris0 as we start a new chapter in our lives. They are perfect!

Y'all I love LOVE love V For Vendetta but the real Guy Fawkes wasn't anything to be celebrated. He was just trying to restore a catholic monarch to the throne. ANYWAY, I will celebrate with you in honor of the graphic novel and movie, Woo anarchy! Remember, remember the 5th Of November. Also, I think posts like this: "Happy Guy Fawkes Day, everyone! Don’t forget to vote tomorrow!" are completely ridiculous and hilarious. Y'all make me laugh.

Doing something I should have done a long time ago. Let go and live in the moment that's at arm's length. Be determined not to make the same mistakes. Fight, tooth and nail, every single day, to be the best you you can be, especially when you stumble. And you will stumble. When love comes along, pure love, the kind that brings you to your knees and sends your whole universe into a quiver. You must let go of the fantasies and the lies. Of all your misconceptions. Stop running. Start fresh. Take a chance. Fight. Love will heal and love will haunt. Choice is yours. #coverup #movingforward #sharingtheweight (at Mid City Voodoux Tattoos)
