What is actually there....
What I can't stop seeing...
I got on the Atlanta Georgia Marta train today and upon arrival to the main station I couldn’t help but see how much it looked like a level in Silent Hill 3…
Finally. I really do not like Tybee Island at all. The marine science center was fun, but other than that it was sort of bland. At least the parts I saw were. Then again, I don’t like beach towns.
Savannah, on the other hand, was the most beautiful city I’ve ever visited. I want to live there. It was beautiful, BEAUTIFUL. The architecture, the nature, the parks, the people, the ghosts, THE BEAUTIFUL DOGS. AH.
But all in all, I’m glad to be home. Even though the cucumbers and spaghetti squash plants have all but suffocated everything else in our vegetable patch. But oh well.

My best friend’s dad gave my friend Taylor this tattoo after her graduation.
This was done at Alien Touch Tattoo down in Atlanta, GA.
If you live in Florida, Georgia, South/North Carolina or Virgina
look at your local pound/ASPCA websites for me?
The dog has to be male and larger than a beagle because my dog is not a fan of smaller dogs since every one she has ever come in contact with has tried to attack/bite her. She LOVES Bulldogs though.
