Super Psycho Magnet

Rough translation: “Being perpetuated (is) the sovereignty of the land to righteousness/ to balance, Hawai`i”

It’s been two years since I’ve left Hawaii and I think I’m ready to talk about it now. There are things that I’m not ready to discuss, nor will I ever be. There are things that I’m glad that happened that won’t be discussed and there are bad. It’s hard to draw the line where the good ends and the bad starts.

One of the good things that I took from there was the experience of some of the people that I met. More so were the people that were my true friends.

Anywhere you go there will be good friends and bad friends. The bad ones will disguise themselves as good. They wear pretty wool sweaters but believe me, they are wolves down deep.

The night before I left I was shown incredible hospitality by the people I thought were mere acquaintances. For the year and a half I had been there I had been taking Betsy to a dog park. The night before I left they threw me a surprise Going Away party, complete with dishes brought by people that I didn’t know and lots and lots of beer. It was the kind of party that if I had known earlier, I may not have tried so hard to leave the island.

Even after the party was “over” Betsy and I were invited back to a friends house to watch movies and wake up to some good ole pancakes and sausages.

I guess this is a tribute to the people that I left that loved me and loved Betsy. Even after she jumped on a table at the Pet Expo and spread the hand-made jewelry all over the floor.

Thank you. All that you did for me kept me from going completely insane.

I am COMPLETELY aware that I’m half-assing it on Day 2. I blame You Tube and Beyonce.

Here is Laser Dog, and her eyes that will shoot you (unless you scratch her belly).

This shot was taken with my cell phone at 11:13 pm.

Betsy was very tired by the time I decided to start taking pictures again last night. So tired that by the time I got the right shot she would no longer sit pretty, look interested, or look at all.

Regardless of Betsy’s lack of cooperation for the perfect pose for my new found inspiration for taking a new photo everyday and doing my best to post them too.

There are a lot of changes going on in my life and I hope to share them visually as well as written.
