If you’re not on my Gentleman’s LJ, please read this post.

I’m looking for the word that can replace the phrase “something that doesn’t belong,” not contrast, displace/misplace or antithesis.

I learned this word in tenth grade English class when I tried to describe some like a 1920’s scene with a 2007 automobile or a flaming homosexual African American male at a KKK meeting.

I learned it the same day I learned onomatopoeia, so I’m forever mixing them up.

Insight is the fruit of direct experience. This flower is no longer a notion. The person I look deeply into becomes the reality, the object of my mindfulness, my concentration. She is no longer a notion or an idea.

-Thich Nhat Hanh

I love it when I come across something that epitomizes the way I feel.

Hey folks, if anyone has my number please call or txt me. I lost my old phone off my mo mo so I can't reinstall numbers from it.

If you txt, just send your name so I can save it! Thank you!!!

One of my teachers talks about how he loves to do acupuncture on animals because "animals can't lie."

My big dog, Subuki, lets me do what ever to her. I've put stitches in that dog with only a little local, so I can needle her all I want. The little one, Stella, she's a whole 'nother story.  So I chose yintang. An extra point that's supposed to be very calming and soothing.

Perfect for the little shit.

I thought I missed the point because she moved around so much but she totally relaxed after having it in her for a few min, she even yawned. Maybe its a bigger point on her than it is on humans. I know there are a few points on people that can be the size of a nickel, Hegu LI-4 being one of them.

She's now crashed out on the floor at the foot of my bed and hasn't stirred for the last 10 min, a rather unusual way to experience a dog generally referred to as "freakazoid."

I did some head shots of the acupuncturists that I volunteer for, they needed images for their website. The two of them couldn't be more opposite which made getting a good shot of both of them nearly impossible. I did,  however get one great shot...but it was so hot that day all you could see was their sweat. Did I mention I was using someone else's camera as well? Yeah, Lisa's 30D....mmmmmmmmmm.

So off to Corel I went. I have to say, I'm almost proud of myself. ( BEHOLD, the before and after: )

Most of my photography sucked yesterday even though firdarrig was kind enough to teach me an assload about my camera (thank you, if I didn't say it before). So far, out of almost 400 images (mostly because I used continuous shoot mode when trying to capture the roman candle wars) ( this was my favourite )

Let it never be said that I don't love my ( dog )

Someone I knew a long time ago told me to find him on mywhore. So I did. He asked me for some pictures of him, cause you know what a picture whore I am, ( and I found this: )
