So, I have completed 2 items from the bucket list, the additional piercings and the tattoos.

I have added a third hole to the lobe on each side and one at the top on the left side, aka the helix. It was a little sore, but not bad. Once the top piercing is healed and no longer sore, I will replace it with a ring instead. I am already planning on getting more. Although they might not be in my ears.

A local artist, Riley Hoffman (@rileyhoffmantattoos), did the tattoos. One on the inside of my left wrist is just the word Breathe. Sometimes I just need the remember to pause and take a couple of deep breaths. It’s important to keep oxygen going to the brain so the body doesn’t go into flight or fight mode, as well as remind myself that I have control over my body and reactions even if the current situation is out of my control. The other tattoo on the inside of my right forearm reads ‘You Got This’. Essentially, be brave, be bold, and you can do it. Don’t we all need reminding of that at some point in our life? Or several points… I already have plans to add to the one on my wrist. I suspect an addiction has been created.

Now on to a favorite topic, my obsession update, Spencer Barrick. OMG! Its not enough that he is intelligent, sexy, creative, and has a sense of humor. Oh no, he also cooks! Yep, he can cook, too. Give me a moment here… *fans face with magazine* Maybe I shouldn’t ever get close enough to be able to smell him. If he smells really good, then I might be ruined for anyone else.

He posted pictures today of a hike in the Zion National Park. No, it’s not stalking if he posts it to his Instagram account… Anyway, they were beautiful shots, both in the scenery and the main subject. It made me think it was time to get my camera back out. I would love to be able to take pictures of him with his clothes on. But if he insisted taking some off, I don’t know if I would complain too much…

Although I will admit that my faith has been questioned lately in regards to his royal hotness. I came up with a great idea on how to expand the advertising for the condom company to women. It was to combine the sale of condoms with a case to carry them in your purse or pocket. There is a company out there named Just in Case that creates such a product. How perfect is the naming, PS and Just in Case? I relayed this to him in the messaging feature of Instagram and I’ve not had any type of response. He might not have even read them. Bet he gets lots of messages from crazy fans, but I don’t think I qualify in that category. Really! Since no one is reading this blog, I guess it doesn’t hurt to share the details here. In any case, obviously I still have faith and I’m not taking (trying not to) it personally.

Oh, let’s not forget about the llamas. I know, I bet you thought I was done with them. But, wait, there’s more! Here is a link to a guy that runs a llama farm talking about using the males as pregnancy detectors. I can’t decide if watching the guy try not to laugh or the llamas themselves are the funniest. Whatcha think?
