Wow.... What a fucking roller coaster. I should have keys to the new shop.... Almost a week ago. But oh hell no. Every god damn time I think I got one fire put out it flares up again. I got insurance.. Yippy... Then the paper work didn't have the landlords name on it. I had email conversations... I got charged $50 for a retype... Then I find out I gotta pay the rest of the premium by the 23rd. And ya know... I haven't had the ability to make dollar one.

One the plus side.... Evilution tattoos is now Incorporated. How wild. Really didn't know that was going to be on the menu.

The bitch of the bunch is I'm so frustrated that I can't talk to people anymore. I'm sick of having to tell people that I'm still waiting. The more I hear myself say it out loud the more pissed I get. I wish that shit went as smooth as I hoped it would. But shit fucking happens. This is why there aren't tattoo shops on every corner in Vegas. You really got to want to do this.

I feel like still such an asshole for not keeping up with my friends.... I just wanna talk to them when I have some good news. Hope they forgive me.

Clair is sleeping on my lap... The cat is sleeping on her.... Piggy is curled into a lil ball... Think it's making me sleepy...hope tomorrow is key day.

It's been another crazy month. Usually I check the previous posts to where I left off.... But tonight i'm skipping it. I'm sitting n my couch under clairs sleeping legs... Watching some family guy. Here's the low down on life. Evilution has closed at the verona salon. The new shop is really close to becoming a reality. I've gotten thru most of the hoops. The first step of the health board is done. I had to take the plans in and have a meeting where I showdd how the shop will be set up. It went great... The best thing I did was print out pics of the pre-existing stations. Pretty smooth sailing like that.

The lease has been signed.... Soon to be twice. Aparently the first copy didn't have a one of the signature sheets. Now we have to go back over the entire thing to make sure i'm signing the same lease I originally sign. That is pretty much how this process has been going... From the start really. I got insurance yesterday... Thank you loyds of london. I have to incorprate the business tomorrow ...plus a couple more things just to get the keys. I'm losing business every day that I can't get up and going... I'm getting between 5 and 10 calls a day from people wanting ink and wanting to help to get the shop ready. Kinda cool having those kinda people behind me.

Clair put in her two weeks notice from home depot. Honestly it was a long time coming. One of the smartest women i've ever met doesn't need to get yelled at for improper watering. Bunch of horse shit. I think it was good for what it was... But i'm going to be happier having her run the tattoo shop.

My house is currently a disaster area. One of my neighbrs had to leave town in a hurry... Lost his job... No place to stay.... Only friend was in kansas. He didn't have a moving van so basicaly all he could take was the stuff that fit in a 4 door sedan. After I helped him load what he could fit he handed my his keys and said to turn them into the office when I took what I wanted. I ended up with computer desks, a tv, clocks, chairs, tv cables, ipod, tables, trash cans, glasses, dinnerware, entertainment center... So much electronic it's crazy. I basically got enough to furnish the shop. I've been havesome fun with stencils and spray paint ver the last couple days. I'll have to post some pics when everythings done.

So this was a little crazy. My grandfather has really been helping me on the whole project. It's been awesome. So anyways... I went down to palm springs last weekend. Papa said he wanted to let me borrow his mercedes. I thought it would be great to have 4 wheels again. That and I love the car. It always reminded me of my grandparents... Especially my grandmother Gyda. I was shocked when papa handed me the title and took me to get it washed... While of course showing me evrything there is to know about it. It's so fucking cool. It's a 1983 mercedes benz. Grandma green.. Tan interior... Turbo desil. It's amazing. I'm going to limo tint the windows and put some evilution stickers.... Can't wait. Pics coming soon. Been raining all day... But soon.

I'm gonna hit the sack... I think.... Or maybe update some other web stuff.
I've been holding off on blogging because everytime I think I knw what's going on in life it changes in the blink of an eye. Can't wait to get things done so we can get a regular schedual.
