Dearest Gentle Giants, this is my sister of 15 years, my sister of heart & thoughts, my sibling of soulful wordless wonder and troubly-troublesomeness, @ll3y c@+.

Today, FINALLY,  we watch mortalmovie, my s'elf in NY, she in Denmark. We watched it exactly the same time, 3888 miles or 6255.79 Kilometers between our seats, only were were together... while not at all knowing we were together!
Am I actually surprised this happen? nope, not at all, not with @ll3y & me. This has been our whole life, our shared existence.
Those are proud tears in her eyes. She's a happy crier though but I forgive her that, my @ll3y c@+. For serious, would you look a that magic, would you just lookit that!





Last weekend, after my third big attempt to watch The Mortal Instruments; City of Bones fell through and I know, you'd really think it would be easier for me to see a film with my name somewhere in the credits (as my sister documented so blurringly with loves) but instead I did the thing, I mean THE THING I was meant to do instead.

I went to my tattoo shop. My footprints aren't on the ceiling anymore. My artwork isn't on the walls. The neighborhoods been sold, every storefront 3 times over at least. But there is something there that's certainly my home, you'd know it if you walked with me.
@shadowinked did exactly that. She came down from Canada. I found an old-school tattooist friend to work on her Angelic Rune piece. We held hands for an hour, she told me her story and how she came to find & love the Shadowhunters. I told her how the Shadowhunters came to be & where my awkward love stands. In the end even the tattooist wanted to hear more.
Afterward, we told even more stories, hella-spoilers throughout, not just film or book or behind the scenes but just long lives, just spoiling each other rotten, walking around through hidden New York, places that only people both torn down & built up here could possibly know.

Then parted ways, contentedly, peaceably-- for me? filled to the brim with gratitude for the connectivity, the intimacy my craft affords me.

Lucky me. Lucky, lucky, lucky me.

Everyone did one of these pics months ago, I forgot to upload mine. This was on my way to the clinic to get injections into my spine, for reasons, with a fancy blouse, leather skirt & machine gun stockings as you do. Check how I own these bitches!! To busy-ness--

Hello kids, I want to tell you a story today, because today is a day where all stories about stories are made true for you. Most especially for my very-est good friend Cassie, who I have shared something magical with. Something that started nearly 10 years ago on the doorstep of my tattoo shop and tonight is comes stealthily to doorstep of unsuspecting viewerships world over. And that's more than a little cool.

This! This however is a story of how I dislike Cinderella. Tonight is "The Mortal Instruments; City of Bones" premiere in LA and I'm missing it, partly because my dress is in London mostly because mys'elf is in New York and a little bit because I am not Cinder-fucking-ella.

I think more than a few people would rally and stress and world-whine themselves up to get to Hollywood "or Bust" and I could do. I really could. But I will sit this one out to stay home and make something special instead. Whinging for "Grand Balls" is over-rated and out of fashion, when Cindy should have just stolen that carriage gotten out of dodge. For real tho, she pinned for a thing she didn't know and hadn't really earned just because everyone else pinned for it too. Maybe its me but that's real fucked-faced, what sort of hoe-y example does that set? And to have your whole future-destiny set on fancy shiney flashy clothing... (don't get me wrong, my dress was Shadowhunter-y, Rachel Freire designer made, better-in-black, bend-you-over-backward-and-smex-you-happy-awesome but still I wasn't going to summon up a demon just to wear it. But yay! Nepotism!)

So, I'm not sitting at home feeling very Cinderella-y as she is my more loathed of the fairy princess, since she is not a fairy or nor a princess at all but a poser! I mean if you're going to have access to magic for one night, really access that magic! She really should have used the pumpkin carriage to overwhelm and go all "Stand-n-Deliver". To rob everyone coming up the highway toward the Palace, use the rat-henchmen as muscle cuz once midnight hit, no one could have identified her and she'd have all teh swag and lived large, maybe even done good with her fortune, become a femme fatale robin hood/pied-piper, a legend in her own right!


THAT would have been magical! THAT is a much better story!


I'm not sure how exactly but I would like to change my story to make tonight magical, for everyone who isn't and is going. I would like to not have anyone pine for something that is ephemeral, so fleeting, like a little ass premiere, in a little ass town, in a little ass theater but instead make it a large ass DANCE!



I'm serious.



It’s the one thing I would have done on the Red Carpet. Cassie knows that for sure. Everywhere I go I do a little dance. I dance a bit if I'm happy, nervous, bored, upset, sleepy. Excited, especially excited! So, do a little dance kids, bring that mo-fo Grand Ball to you!


As far as the film, your expectation, your anticipation, your nervousness, excitements, boredom... on the line, in your seat, at home or waiting for a coffee at your local 'not' Starbucks, dance a little. Everything will be fab, I promise you. "Have a little, Faith."

 
Ohhhh, yeah! Did I forget to mention that? I just made a "FAITH” Glyph-Rune tonight. I'm dancing over that too! I'd very much like to dance with youヽ(´ー`)ノ
  My very goodness, I haven't done one of these in quite some time. It isn't on account of not factually doing various things, or interest in various things, or ailments particularly— just some world wind combination of that PLUS equipment failure.
(2 cameras + 3 phone + 1 laptop =  I mean, seriously.)

  But I made very certain to take time out to see IAMX in the (finally, Thank God!) American leg of "The Unified Field" Tour. Not just for my own mentality's sake, but for the mental perversion of our newbie friends. I harangued our friend JQ into attending, to fine results. I sincerely suggest you do the same... well, in the same way that I'll intend on doing to you right now. :o)
Please, forgive my shit cam-phone as I inch from row 5 to row 3 )The Sounds, The Drums... )

Since I'm abusing YouTube anyways, I'll just leave you with my new fav theme song "I Come With Knives" which I identify with for no reason in particular--And its not live so you should be able to hear/see it betterer.  Oh, Oh, OH! Also, Big plus about Irving Plaza and why I like it there. People. Actually. DANCE. crazy I know, but its true! ;o)

crystaldanarae:
This looks really intense and kinda was. Aria was getting upset and Val calmed her down. I was all HOL UP LEMME INSTAGRAM THIS SHIZ #family #love #photography? Does this count? #ImUselessWithInstagramHashtags xx

Family is having someone to breathe with you when you forget how to… or having someone to headbutt when you is stressed. Same diff. Caption it how you choose. ;o)

I know, I know, Isabelle Lightwood is not Asian. But I had no other model but myself today so…I also don’t own a whip so sorry…I thought the sword would look better than a crappy self-made whip of ribbon. If it bugs you, just pretend that it’s a random Shadowhunter.

Oh wow. I think this is brilliant and I think it’s just a shame in our society that it’s common dialogue to explain away ethnicity while Hollywood White-Washes the value of our personality, our people, even our subconscious dialogue.

Have you seen the Asian dream casting of Holly posted to her tumblr of Tithe. [link]

HOW DOES THE WORLD NOT RECOGNIZE BEAUTY AS BEING BEAUTIFUL! HOW!! just sayin’
~bejeweledmoonphoto May 15, 2012 Aww thank you so much. I think it’s a shame a lot of opportunities for me are gone because of my race because Hollywood is so “white-washed” as you said. But I can’t really fix that, so I just do what I can :)
*far-eviler May 15, 2012 well, what you do is lovely <3
~bejeweledmoonphoto May 16, 2012 Thank you :D It means a lot to me (your previous comment too).
a year ago, i joined hitRECord in a grand gesture 'to expand my horizons', etc. It was really an act of weakness-- I couldn't take on paying work anymore because I started dropping things, getting cramps & spasms from doing everyday things, I'd get tremors that'd sometimes last for days. I felt broken, unreliable & false when people wanted to talk shop.

I dunno what I thought it'd be like. I'd never really collaborated before; I thought it meant losing control. Since I was losing that anyway... I uploaded only things made for personal use, things I loved but was never going to get a chance to put them to use. I figured playing around with these RECorder's would placate artist-smartist self.

The word 'small' I doesn't begin to describe my thinking, but the word "Tiny" began to have a much better ring to it.

It's been a year; Fibromyalgia looks likely to be the culprit of my deterioration but with no really-for-real answer there is no satisfaction in the knowing this but there is satisfaction in getting this.



I hadn't seen it in print, so I wasn't certain. I hadn't known what I was getting into but then I never really do. I'm a published artist now, I'm handicapped, I am not giving up, I'm frightened everyday, I am certain this is not the end, I am grateful were it to be.

also, this guy here who signs my checks, you know My Boss is more Awesome than yours will ever be.
