The Return of the Syren

Goodness gracious! I had been away for quite some time from my blogging.

I was thinking last night how my life has been chronicled on the internet although mainly via MySpace in it's glory days... all those posts are now gone.

I was also talking to a good friend of mine about how I used to tell all online. Since those days the word discretion has been beat into my consciousness and I ultimately adopted the idea that it truly is nobody's business what I do and how I live my life.

Today, I had a reminder that this has nothing to do with business and all to do with inspiration and motivation. The sharing of ideas and concepts is a very important aspect to growth in all of our personal lives, and so, here I am, back to my blog.

Since my last posts, obviously, much has happened. So much, in fact, and so dramatic, that I could entertain you for moths if not years to come... in fact, it has been years - so of course I have enough to fill that time span.

Here's a few highlights:
- I fell in love in 2012, love at first sight type of thing and got married in 2013
- We had a friend live with us and relapse with his drug use
- We had a friend live with us with her boyfriend who accused her of trying to kill him.
- I won an award for best of Anaheim in Wedding Photography
- We bought a house in San Diego! A half acre lot... it's rural, it's paradise
- We were gifted an Avion trailer
- I released another album
- Now have 3 dogs and 2 cats
- We've lost two cats thus far to the wild life out here
- I performed in San Diego and they loved us
- Almost died and got my gallbladder removed
- My polyamorous nature got tested!
- Saved a friend from shooting himself by rear naked choke holding him
- I lost weight!
- I officiated my first wedding and it was same sex!- Tried helping friends and they over stayed their welcome causing drama when I asked them to leave
- I got a job at a Tribal Government Office.
- I became obsessed with dolls, repainting, collecting, and yes, playing with them

I have already posted notes from my Facebook to fill in gaps, and I am thinking it is time to enter my journal entries here on the web for all to see... although there are so many journals.

In any case, now I have more posts, and will continue to update the blog.

BFC Ink Doll Collection Complete!!

Well, if it isn't obvious, I got into doll collection, but I suppose I always was a doll collector, just not really by choice as my mom would buy me a porcelain doll every year for my birthday until I moved away for college, but even then I still got porcelain dolls as gifts from her and other members of my family. Over the years of course I have collected dolls from the 80's like the Kimberly doll by Tommy, and of course Barbie... then I got into repainting Bratz dolls the past couple of years and added Monster High to the list of dolls to look for at flea markets etc... But one day, by chance I came across the now out of production MGA Entertainment 18" BFC Ink (Best Friends Club Ink) dolls. These dolls are way cuter, in my opinion, than American Girl Dolls (which I really do not like at all actually) or Journey Girls etc... They have a hard body all the way and were made in two types. The first productions were just all vinyl bodies, much like the Wellie W...

Day 18: Gotta get ready for the February Show with Finding THETIS

I have been getting up late. This is getting out of hand... and I really need to go back to the Kaiser clinic to get my blood-work done. I've lost the morning, but I can at least go out and earn money. I get dressed, my butterfly print top, and khaki pants... I opt to wear my slipper boots... who do I have to impress? This is not my best outfit. I don't care. I get to work but it is already 1:30. After a couple of rides I remember it is Thursday. Wasn't I going to carpool with Bryce from Finding THETIS? I send a text message. "We carpooling?" "I was just thinking about you" he replies. We joke about food before hand and decide to grab pizza on the way to practice, thus we should meet up at 4. Itis now about 2:30 and I become self aware to what I am wearing... yeah, no one cares, but suddenly I don't want to be this frumpy around my band. I stop by Ross and buy some dressy pants, a dressier blue shirt, and some shoes, I ...

Day 4: There's always Mexico!

Thursday the 4th. I am changing the names of my relatives for their privacy, even though it's fairly obvious who they are. (this marks the point where I chose to go back and change all the names of the people I have previously mentioned in my blog entries to preserve their privacy outside of our immediate communities and families.) My aunt Nina and cousin Jes were coming to visit my cousin Elisa in San Diego. I agreed to meet my mom at her house and then carpool to a rendezvous spot. But as I got close to my mom's she told me my cousins were en route there. When everyone was together Elisa expressed desire to go to Mexico. Oh the irony considering my concerns the night before... But sure, why not!!! After working out concerns about not having their passports on them, we went. We were going to go to Tijuana but we ended up going all the way past Rosarito to Puerto Nuevo to eat Lobster. Upon arriving Elisa suggested her mom, Jes, keep driving t...
