My heart aches. I just had to put down a baby bird. Last month, I tried to nurse a diffrent baby bird back to health, and I failed. I was crushed. I had him for a whole week, fed him every couple hours. Today I found 3 baby birds on the pavement in front of China House. If I hadn't picked 'em up, they might have been stepped on. The first died

Melissa - I heard through mom you weren't in town. Please let me know if you'll be in Chicago the first few weeks in August. I'm trying to plan a trip. Call me.

Whoa, that's the wierdest thing. I can't find that entry when I pull up my latest journals. It's in my mylj, but it dosn't show up publicly. I guess you didn't see it for a reason. I dunno what happened. ???

Well, this was it.

Everything's great. They finally printed the sketchbook I was working on for Rollo, and he gave me credit in small print on the inside cover. That was pretty exciting, allot of tattooists will see it. Also the issue of Tattoo Artist magazine came out with Rollo and Keith featured in it. They printed a group photo, of all of us, so I'm in it. Also, the cover art for the magazine, is basically my tattoo I got from Rollo. It's not a photo of the tattoo, but rather a watercolor he painted of the same design, with cherry blossoms around it. So that's pretty rad too. I'm tattooing at Taylor street now too. I have new photos posted of some more recent tattoos on myspace if you care to check them out. So anyway, your album is almost finished. I'm shooting to have it done by your anniversary, although I doubt you will get it in the mail until after. Anyway, that's my goal. I hope everything is good on your end. I tried to call this morning, but got sidetracked with customers. Anyhoo, call again if you get a chance!
