the shop has been great, challenging. learning lots, trying to learn lots more...lots. been hunting for alot of books. vintage tattoo flash, obscure reference, folk art and shit. came into another russian tattoo encyclopedia, volume 3 this time. totally bananas. trying to add more and more imagery into my brain-bag, to dispense when needed (constantly). the jame-dog's been dropping science as per usual, and i try to scoop it up. im thinking of tattooing in completely different terms, and what i dont know could fill a dozen encyclopedias, russian and otherwise. anyway its my weekend, and ive been squeezing quality time out of every minute of it with my girl, sometimes to her chagrin. went to the museum today! so rad, i love it in there. of course right of the hop i tried to jump in with the seals in the natural history exhibit, fucking alarms started going off, and a security guard called me a "fuckin idiot!? whattya doin in there!!". the plus side is the alarm startled savvy to thoroughly that she jerk-snapped a photo of me jumping off the seal kings rock. the first nations collections/video/pics are always my favorite, but i get bummed that some of the masks and shit arent where they should be, which i suspect is with the people that hold them dearest. the chinatown exhibit is a hit, shit hasnt even changed, other than more people smoking opium. after all that excitement, my and my girl tripped around uptown, hitting bookstores again, savvy true to form displaying much patience. while in munro's books, i told a clerk of my failed attempt at stealing books 10 years ago, and how it resulted in old man Munro sitting me down in his old ass mahogany ass smoky ass office, and how he made me buff the two big ole brass signs on the marble storefront as penance. they laughed, said 'hes in right now, old man munro, in ....HIS OFFICE', i was all shook so i bounced. muhfuckas tough.
im full stokes on my new books though! studying up!
yeah yeah! tomorrow off too, more studies, good food, and bro-downs.
