Today is the last day of, and the last few hours of the first month in 2012. I am hoping to blog at least once a month and I am getting this in because in just a few hours this month will be over. This blog will be different there may or may not be pictures. This blog is more about me exposing my own inner threads rather than pictures. It has been quite an eventful month. My camera of 4 years may or may not have kicked the bucket. If it did it is time to move on and start saving for a new one and if it didn’t then I will be really excited and start saving for a new one after I get my motorcycle. It has been 2 months now since I have not used a credit card. Strangely enough this has been harder then quitting drinking.
I no longer feel like they own me, I feel free even though I am still tied to them until the last dollar. In my mind I am free because I know that I have broken up with them and that our relationship is over. It has also been the most liberating 2 months, every month I pay them back and don’t use them it is like saying the greatest fuck you that I could ever say.
I am doing the Dave Ramsey plan, I think he is pretty genius in the way teaches people about money. It has changed my life and it feels so good. I now feel and can see a way out of this.
Clay has found its way back into my life. I spent a Friday or 2 ago filming, and taking pics. of Kirsten working on the hands at The Florida School of Massage. I took this quick clip with my phone and it is not one of those fancy phones either it is a metro pcs wanna be fancy phone that I love and feel thankful for having a consistently cheap phone bill no matter what I do. Someday I will be an i phoner maybe, but by the time I go there who knows what will be the best. I say my phone is not fancy but it is the fanciest phone I have ever had. No the megapixels don’t compare to others and the internet works kind of slow but it is pretty close to as amazing as the stuff that me and my sister wondered as kids would ever happen.
SOME DAY THIS WILL LOOK LIKE
Here is a pic. of the guy that invented the cell phone on his first cell phone call ever .
If the i phone was carried through a company that I could get all of the perks for $50 a month no matter what then I will upgrade but until then I am pretty content with my metro phone. Kirsten lent me her pottery wheel. All I need to do now is get some clay. This spring I will be able to chill out under my carport, throw pots, film myself throwing pots etc. I am about to embark on a new artistic endeavor which I think will provide me with infinite amounts of fun and inspiration and that is working with Art Clay Silver. I am going to be working with clay that is really composed of silver and once I hit it with a torch it will harden up and within a few minutes it will transform into jewelry. Stay tuned for all of the new exciting adventures to come. Until then I will be going to sleep wishing I was at the beach. 







I could see and feel nothing except for the sensation of being too hot. I am amazed by this ever changing prairie. Everything was so grown out it was hard to see any creatures beyond the sun. I decided to take the path less tread upon on my way back. I had given up on seeing anything interesting and to taking any pictures. I just wanted to escape the heat and get back on my bike and ride the shady part of the hawthorne trail before returning home. All of the suddenly I saw 1,2,3,4,5 butterflies all together just waiting to have their portrait taken I am sure. I very sneakily and patiently snuck up to them in hopes that they would not fly away. I took some pictures. Got closer took some more. Got even closer and doug my elbows down into the dirt and took some more pics. They did not leave. I have startled many a butterfly pollinating a gorgeous flower. But these Pollinators had me in shock. They were all getting down on some horsey dung. They were so into it that they did not even care that I was there. Is it possible that this dung is even more of a treat than a flower. There were beatles underneath the dung moving it all the while the butterflies continued to surf the dung and fight for the juiciest spot. Again my elbows are in the dirt….Fortunately not in the dung and I am in utter amazement. I love that nature never fails to amaze me and even when it seems like there is nothing going on on the praire there is more happening then I will ever be able to imagine. I will admit that I did start getting hungry watching them chow down on this pile of dung. The butterflies were almost at full capacity for this dung cafe.
