So kids, I'm excessively excited. Only two months to go now and I get to have things I haven't had in forever. I get to cut and dye my hair however I please, wear whatever I want, and do whatever I please. The body jewelry is coming back, that's a promise, and I've already set up a crap ton of tattoo appointments just for the occasion. And my square clothes, gone. I'm riding the steampunk/Edwardian train for a little while, and I will be posting videos and and photos of my little transformation. P90x is kicking my ass, but I've never felt healthier and more energetic. And there is something else too, I can run now! I can actually run as far as I want without collapsing into a pile of pale death. I gave up smoking completely a while back, and most people who know me know I've been clean of other stuff for a good long while though. In related news that I never thought I would count as positive, I am drinking again. No, not by the gallon life some folks, but it doors help me loosen even more and hang out in crowds I probably wouldn't have landed in otherwise. And or anyone who thinks I'm barreling down a slimy sewer tunnel if view immorality masked as personal growth, I'll have you know that as of 7 pm Wednesday night, I was official inducted into Freemasonry. It says something that all those people thought of my moral fiber as that strong, and I'm proud of it. You should be to if you don't want me to strangle and rape your goldfish. :)
It must be a sign of the times. Not yours, of course, but just mine. The fact that I would upload a photograph completely unaltered, with the exception of a resize, as the main image everyone will be staring at is new. That's not saying that I don't or will no longer play around with my photos, but it is the first time I haven't done so.
No, it isn't going to rock your world, or even mine, but like Demi Moore with a bun in the oven, I'm not hidden. I'm not obscured by my vanity or your desire.
I really don't care anymore whether people find me attractive, whether they find me mysterious, or even intelligent. I simply am what I am, we all are, and what we are we are only in this moment. An "unmoved mover", my perspective has grown and expanded to include my own happiness. At least in this moment.

Psh, I've been a member of Les Enfants a couple of times, and have almost always been a 'silent observer'. I think that a coven that can successfully silence my incessant rambling is a testament to just how intelligent/mysterious you seem.
I can also understand the 'want' of over editing photos. None of mine escape without atleast a subtle hint of a bluish tone or something.
I love the new image, but then again, I have seen unaltered images of you before. And, you sire, are quite attractive, always a mystery and unbelievably intelligent, and anyone who would think otherwise doesn't know anything at all. And, I am glad you're looking out for your happiness, I know that's not something you normally do.
Oh Monsieur... Keep moving forward.
You've grown I see. Still the eyes hold no secrets. I see you have been well. I have been a space cadet lately. I hope to hear more of this...

Steampunk/Edwardian clothing? Oh, that will be a treat for the eyes. Dandy Mr. D. I'm glad things ate getting better, and that you've worked so hard to get there. A little alcohol, in light of everything else, isn't so bad.
And, congrats on becoming a Freemason. :]

P90X is a serious program, if you're doing it- that's awesome :). Congratulations on your induction. Your words and new avatar are exuding a new you, a better you, a happier you.
