I'm stealing people left and right at the moment, and I'm not even sorry! Today I'm joined by Maka, who is mostly naked around me.

OK... calm down! He started it by using a candycane for his man-bit and I just continued the theme in the name of Christmas! You're very welcome for this most recent show of his manhood!

Yesterday I wrote a bit that lead to a whole different wave of thinking, because hi, I'm Pickle, and my brain never stops.

For a long, long time I've felt absolutely fucking exhausted. I've spoken many times about my spoons, (original post >Here<) and how sometimes I just don't have the energy to deal with people, but recently I've made some changes in my life which has enabled me to spend more time with people who don't take from my cutlery drawer and who enrich my life... and I've also noticed that I've been more open to meeting and spending time with people who aren't directly "in my circle".

I really feel as though this is a direct result of cutting loose those who take. Granted, just because I feel drained by someone, doesn't mean everyone is going to be drained by them. Still, because I'm no longer hiding from those who constantly demand my attention and 'services', I have more space in my life to do things I actually want to do.

I'm not saying this is entirely the fault of other people, either. It's taken me a while to figure out that just because you CAN do something for someone else, doesn't mean you should.. and you should never feel like you have to agree or disagree with something, just because you feel like it's the right thing to do for them. Selfish is something I have always struggled with, and in an attempt to be selfLESS, I was giving too much through fear of not being accepted by others... and the real acceptance had to come from me.

Lawd.

Am I on my soapbox again?

I use this blog sometimes as an outlet, and I know that a lot of this won't make sense to everyone, but it helps me to figure out what's going on with the changes I'm making for me.. and if anyone relates then that's a bonus.

Say hi to Durex! He does alright, does our lad! 

Today I wanted to make a valiant effort to show off some of the fantastic tattoo's Dappa is producing. I feel like I blink, and he's gotten a brand new product at another premium event, so trying to keep up with him is insane - but Pickle loves a challenge!

I'm showcasing two today, one on Pickle and one on Durex, and although Durex's may not be entirely christmas themed, I felt like the colours fit in perfectly for a scene.

I woke up today with intentions of getting stuff done.

What actually happened was incessant zoning out, ridiculous videos watched on youtube and a whole heap of Ark, Survival Evolved. Welp. There's always tomorrow!

Location : Borneo Island

I woke up today and was all organized, which is incredibly unusual... but then stuff made me go -flop- and now my anxious brain is making me overthink, and i'm tired and headachy and blah! However, please go visit the new sim Borneo, I accidentally stumbled across it using editors choice - there's also a photo contest for a prize of 15kL's, so that's definitely worth looking into too.

Another quick note is on the Bueno Dungaree/Overalls I'm wearing. YOU NEED TO HAVE THESE. Each individual overall colour comes with a hud for the shirt. There are MANY colours and patterns for the shirt, plus a longsleeve & short sleeve option AND the ability to turn the shirt off completely so that you can wear your own choice beneath it. 

My brain feels a little better upon almost completing this blog, \o/

I hope your day is full of love and laughter! xoxo
