jpegghost | Another Update

Okay so now that I’m back from being out at a brewery with Alex for Easter, hi! Happy Easter and Sameach Pesach.

I’ve been tattooing this whole time. Drawing all the time, tattooing all the time. We lost good coworkers to go to other shops, emotions teeter, personalities clash — It’s like a bunch of kindergarteners in there. But, it is a tattoo shop. So what are you expecting honestly lol

Alex’s parents are going to be traveling the world for a year, and needed house sitters. Me and Alex’s lease was coming up and we decided to be the house sitters. It was free rent after all. I don’t mind it, it gives me the opportunity to leave Texas thank fuck hahaha the people down here are CRAZY (yes I know about all the laws. No I don’t want to talk about it. I voted.)

I’ve moved on to gardening a lot in my free time. It’s my first year as a food gardener because inflation and general interest in it, so I’ve been trying different methods and plants. Thanks to 8hyenas I have not horribly and irreparably ruined the garden. So far its a dying poblano that I resurrected and is now making many babies, two green bell peppers, a jalapeño, and four tomatoes (3 Roma 1 san Marzano). The poblano is producing the most right now, and one of the Romas is beginning to flower. It’s all very encouraging!

(Of course my other plants I normally talk about here are fine. They’re getting used to their new home)

Since we moved I’ve been nesting hardcore, donating stuff I don’t need, and overall trying to make someone else’s home seem like ours. We are staying on the bottom floor which we have moved around and made a little nicer and a little more homey (thankfully Alex’s parents are pretty minimalist in things they own so we aren’t competing for space). I hope shit works out!

Admittedly I don’t know what to talk about. What do people even talk about on here anymore?!
