My monthly check-up!




Well to be honest with you I just don’t know if I will EVER be an avid logger on this site. I will probably NEVER get it up and running. One thing that I’m unhappy about is that I am not happy with the format of the site among being a computer idiot (apparently) and not getting the things I want on the site. Not to mention that I have filled my schedule almost beyond my means. Working two jobs, 1 full time, 1 part time, traveling and I have recently entered into a leisurely vocation of “ghost hunting”. I have been inducted into a paranormal investigation team here in Kansas City called Ghost Vigil. I am not an investigator but merely there to help on the investigations such as running the camera, research, and logging events as they happen. I have yet to go on my first “hunt”. I will however be going on my first one early May. Hopefully I will have time to log about it.
In two weeks I am going to Savannah Georgia with my boss from work and am staying in a haunted hotel. I am SOOO excited! I ahve not been on a vacation liek this in it seems years! I don't get out very often.....




















What else is new? Well my kitty is getting big. I am warming up to him more and more each day. He is my constant companion when I am home.
My "lillte dude" Diesel. aka Hellion.














I have finally gotten my tattoo finished and can’t wait for yet another! I swear this is such an addiction for me. I blame it on my parents! They took me to get my first tat when I was 15. That’s all she wrote. I will be 70 running around with ink all over my body. I hate to imagine what it will look like. O well it’s a way to express myself, I guess it comes with the generation.



Please, like I ask every time, bear with me on my posting. I have MANY wonderful things coming up in the future that I am sure will just fascinate you to no end.

New Family Member..

My spouse and I of nine years split almost a year ago. Actaully to be precise, it was exactly a year today. That's not the point though. As I have posted earlier we had a child. A two year old French Mastiff named Maya. I have missed her tremendously over the last year.
Since I became a sinlge entity I have been a little lonely at times and go to my borther's to visit his animals. 3 cats and 2 dogs. I also had a roomie that had two cats. Thus the first real introduction to a cats life. I can't say that I took to them immediatly, but I did come around after a few months. I have always been a dog lover more than a cat lover. About three weeks ago my brother took me "shopping" at the local pet house. He wanted to buy me a cat. Now honestly, I did not want a cat, I wanted a dog. I'm not home often enough to take care of a dog working two jobs. At the same time couldn't really tell him NO, heck he was more excited about it than I! Life with my very own cat had begun. Let me tell you, I thought raising a hard headed extra large breed dog from puppyhood was challening enough, but a cat? They say that cats are less work, more independant! HA! Not mine! God love him, he has almost put me at my witts end numerous times! Since I don't know much about cats maybe I should buy the Dummies Kitten book. This cat LOVES electrical appliances plugged in or not! I can not keep him away from electric cords, keys, earrings, etc. I know they love dangly things, some of these things are not dangly! What is the deal? I did have him declawed. I know MANY of you frown upon this but I simply can not have this cat tearing up my new furniture, I don't want to have to lock him in a room all day. What would be the point of having him? I am also not used to the nocturnal nature of these beings. When I am ready for bed he is full of piss and vinegar! He reminds me of a spider monkey on crack (not that I really know how that would be)!! I have gotten a little used to it though. I do love him more and more each day. He is there to greet me when I get home and is always happy to love on me. In fact he is sitting around my neck watching me type as we speak.
I wish I had a digital camera so that I could post a cute little picture of him. He is real a doll (when he's asleep). His name is Diesel and was born November 28, 2005. So yes I am dealing with a geniune kitten. He got his name from his motor. He sounds just like a diesel engine running constantly. The only time his motor is not running is when he is sleeping heavy or playing hard, other than that, you can hear him at the other end of the house.



It has actaully been a pretty good day today. I have yet to play any jokes though. I worked from 9 to 5. As soon as I got off I started calling various people with jokes I wanted to play, no one answered! Go figure.

What are some good jokes you have played on April fools day? Or a joke that has been played on you? I LOVE jokes....

Vision Crystal

Above is a picture of my latest tattoo creation. I want to thank Brian at
Bleeding Heart Tattoo for the wonderful artwork and dedication to this project. It took about 7 to 8 hours in all to complete this piece and let me tell you, it is beautiful. I have around 8 tattoos including this one from various artist around Kansas City and I will never go anywhere else again. This piece has been finished since mid to late February but it still needed some touch-ups.

It had been almost a month since I had been in the shop so Friday evening I decided to give Brian a call to see if we could find a time for me to come in and get the piece completely finished. He then told me some wonderful news! The shop was making a commercial and Brian wanted to use MY artwork in the commercial! The bad thing was that it was on Monday afternoon during work hours. I decided I would take off work anyhow and join the party. This is going to be my 15 seconds of fame! (Not that I have actually ever wanted to be on TV).
I arrived at the shop around 11:40 AM on Monday. There were a total of 12 people who were to be in the shoot. It was a blast! My part of the commercial was to be sitting there while Brian was giving me a tattoo. I really hope that my part is not that long because they say that the camera adds 10 lbs and I don’t need the added help trust me. Anyhow, while shooting the commercial, the camera crew asked if they could use a little footage because they were making their own commercial. This was for a contest a local rock station is putting on. 98.9 The Rock. They wanted a shot of someone really getting a tattoo. Well that would have been me because Brian was going to do the touch ups after the Bleeding Heart shoot. So I am now going to be in 2 commercials. I think that kinda rocks!

The first commercial, airing for Bleeding Heart will be shown on both TLC and A&E, during Miami Ink and Inked. The second commercial is for the radio contest. You can log on to 98.9 The Rock and vote for your favorite commercial after April 12. I will have a post up closer to that time and a link for you to visit and vote on the best commercial, which hopefully will be the one I am in. _______________________________

Now about me. I do apologize for the month delay in writing. I have suffered from various illnesses the past month. I am currently out of work with severe bronchitis. I went to the doc on Monday and she informed me that if I had not gotten in that day I could have gotten walking pneumonia. I thought to myself, well if you had not been vacationing on a sunny beach on Friday, when I originally tried to come, I would not be this bad off! Docs! Gotta love em....

I am still trying to figure out the basics of this blogging thing and it really frustrates me when I try to post something and have no idea what I am doing. I thought at one time I was a little computer savvy, but I am beginning to think otherwise. Please bear with me.

It is my last day off work and I am feeling much better, the weather outside is supposed to hit the 70 degree mark today. I am going to see what kind of trouble I can get into on a day like this.

Realization of others perspectives


So I'm at my mother's house the other night and she hands me this calendar and says, "I thought of you when I saw this so I just HAD to get it!" I asked her, " So..... what you got this because you think I am a geek?!?" Her responce was, "Well? Aren't you?"
Ok I guess MAYBE a little but come on, you don't have to buy me stuff that tags me as a geek. I have not quite figured out where I am going to hang this calendar yet, in deepest corner of the basement or at work.
Do I think I am a geek? Well not really but maybe a little, I have never been one to really care what people think to much, and do have some unique styles and tastes, but does that really make you a geek? How do you truly define whether one is a geek?

I am taking my National Certification for Massage and Therapeutic Bodywork next Saturday. I'm not afraid to admit that this will be the second time I am taking it. I have finally come to terms with my first failure (it was a failure by 1 question), moved on, and am ready to conquer the second test. I think it might help just slightly that I am actually studying for this one. That is one reason I have not launched this site a little better, I am trying to do something productive with my brain instead of sitting in front of the computer 12 hours a day..........

MY BABY

I will start out by introducing myself. I'm Jamie. This is my baby Maya. She lives in Milwaukee (with the Ex). She is three years old. I will have more recent pictures up soon.

I work two jobs, one for a mental health agency, (my night alias) a massage therapist. I am interested in many things but my passion is books, books, and more books! I also love movies. I hope I do not bore you to much with my babbling, I'm new at this and still playing around. This weekend I really have no big plans. I am going out to eat this evening, working Saturday and taking level two Reiki on Sunday. If anything eventfull happens I will be sure and inform you.
