I did this type of blog last year. So in honor of tradition, I will do it again....

2006

January - I started my year out with some new ink. And to be honest, my very first LARGE ink. My Virgin de Guadalupe/Dios de los Muertos tribute tattoo. And I got my chihuahua, Chello. It was also my boyfriend's 22nd birthday party. It was fantastic. He had a surprise birthday party at his old place, and everyone he knew came. It was also the night he was asked to be in his new band The Coterie.

February -

I shot my "Up In the Attic" set, later to be known as my SG Debut set, with Cymagen, and got roses on Valentine's day from my bf. Whew. What an exciting month.

March -
The boys started the first round of recording in the studio. Which meant for me... lots of boring down time. So what did I do? Smoke pot with the other band girlfriends and take up coloring in coloring books! Oh what a time. Also had lots of work to update on my tattoo. Suicide Girls reached it's 1,000th girl, and although I had a different set that got me into Limboland.. my Up in the Attic set went live on March 27th! Whoo hooo!!!

April -
My boyfriend moved in with me, after a night of me slipping and falling in the shower. Ugh. April was the month where I tripped and fell almost everywhere. It was also the month where my breasts got significantly larger. Maybe they had something to do with eachother. Either way, I wish my big boobs would come back. I miss them. Also the month I took CaptainTact as my myspace husband. I went to Tenessee and Mississipi for my work, at the time. It was lame. But I got to go on an all expenses paid for vay-cay for a few days!!!

Sometimes I think that picture was overlooked. I love it. No makeup.. and my hair was really cute back then. Right before I chopped it off more. We also had the Easter Egg Extravaganza, complete with a beer can hunt, and egg dying, and lots of friends. Easter was complete.

May -
Finished my Virgin half sleeve. Went to Hell City, and met most of my favorite SG's to date. It was a fantastic time. Just what I needed to break out of the mundane cube job-ocity. Also ended up hooking up with tattoo artist Trevor Collis in Hell City, and he accomplished my bad ass Medusa on my left shoulder in 5 hours. Ugh. I was in pain. But shot my "Hell City" set and video then and there. I was a trooper. I miss my ladies from Hell City. I hope to see you all again very soon. Also the month of my 22nd birthday!! I went to watch a show the boys played in McMeth-ville, Oregon. It was horrible, but there was a Star Trek convention, so I posed for a birthday photo with some Trekkie Clingons. Also.. one of the best birthdays ever. My bf pulled a chair into the middle of the stage for me, and I was serenaded at the show by my favorite boy/band. Ah! Fantastic. I sang my heart out. I also discovered my love for sushi.

June -
My mom came to visit. The play that I had been making costumes for, for the last 6 months finally went on. It was great. I volunteered to do costumes for a group that is made up of mentally challenged adults. I got to make so many new friends. And I found out a lot about myself, as well. I started hating my job intensely. But notice, I didn't actually land a new job until November. I also was slapped in the face with abnormal pap smear results, for the second time. And knew that this time I had to do something different. I started eating differently after seeing a naturopath, and started going to an energy healer. Let's hope all my hard work paid off!!!

We also adopted another chihuahua for like... 2 weeks. And realized that the only chihuahua in the world for us.. is Chello. Paige, ran away the moment we got her. Rory ran after her barefoot on the hottest day in the summer. He came back with bloody feet and no Paige. Well, we eventually got her back, but later found out she was insane. Chello and Paige didnt get along, so she went back to her mommy. And we went back to sanity.


July -

Muse's new album!!! YEAHHHH. Also went to Oklahoma for my cousin's wedding. Sure, it was a redneck wedding, and I was surrounded by meat and fried foods, but I was so happy to see my entire family. I found out my cousin is gay, my other cousin and her bf are living together, and I told them I was a nude model. Hahah. It was great. We all bonded on the fact that we're just normal humans, who think we have large secrets, but in reality.. don't matter. My bf and I had our "6 month talk".. as far as what we were doing and where we wanted the relationship to go. My vagina turned off for a disturbing amount of time. Like, a week. But it wasn't on. It made me sad.. no sexual desire, no masturbating, nothing. A week of 2006 without libido! BOO!



Shit got hot in July, in Portland. Me at the beach.

August -
I got some killer fan art, and my Hell City set went live. Fuck yes!

September -
Had a hot SG slumberparty, where actually only 2 girls stayed. But I got to meet my local gals, and might I add.. I love them to this day! Rory and I drove to Montana, to visit my parents at Seeley Lake for a weekend. It was really great. I got to be somewhat close to home, and water ski, and stay at a cabin with no tv, or internet... ahh. Peace and quiet. Hiked a fucking mountain, drank from a waterfall, played some drunken card games, tried to sneak joint smoking sessions in on walks. Great outdoors fun. I was at the peak of my pot smoking this month.

October -
Fresno slumberparty!!! 14 hour long road trips.. uhhhhhggghh. But I got to kick it with my ladies, and we got to meet Stanley at In-n-Out. Also a big month for me, because I had to re-evaluate why I do SG. My bf brought it up to me, and wanted to know.. because it started getting to him. Well, I thought about it, and wrote him a whole letter on why I chose to do it, and why I like it, and think it's a part of expressing myself. He totally understood, and things are great! Also our 1 year anniversary. And lots of Halloween parties.

November -
Started a new job. Not working for corporate America anymore. Well, sort of, but not on a large scale. Finally. No more cube jobin' it for me. No sir. Shit really started to hit the fan this month. I got into my car wreck, caused $3000 worth of damage to my civic. Chello got sick, and had some problems with her skin, and wasn't eating. And I also was told I needed to get my cervix checked out again. It's when the Art Jammers started the calendar fund raiser!! You can still purchase Pistolita merchandise, including the 2007 calendar at this link:
CLICK HERE!. My Hell City video also went live!! I had a wonderful Thanksgiving with my bf's family.

December -
Got some kick ass fan art, and some great gifts from my wishlist from SG members... including socks, body butter, toilet paper, toothpaste, Virgin decor, and lots of love and charity! The calendar raised $255 this quarter!! That's fantastic! I had an apron decorating party at my place, and went home to Montana for Christmas where I got to spend some quality time with my family. It was really nice to be home with my mom and dad. Then, back to work!


Thank you SG for making my year wonderful! I hope to have an amazing 2007, even though I hate odd numbered years. They creep me out, and apparently that makes me supersticious (sp? anybody). I've made a lot of great friends on here, and I love you all. Thank you for your on-going support of me, and I hope to re-pay you in whatever ways I can. Like... my new set. Hopefully to go live in the near 2007.

besos y pesos,
<3 Pistolita


p.s. also some quick thank yous....I keep receiving gifts from my wishlist, and so therefore I'm very much obligated to send love and thanks back out to you. I like to do general "thank you's" because, I don't want to use a member's name publicly. But if you'd like to write me a little message, I can thank you again!


*Thank you so very much for the body butter and socks!!! Those socks look like I could move to antarctica and set up shop. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. And I will send you a picture if you'd like. And I got the sweater! I was so excited, I put it on as fast as I could. It's sooooooooo cute, and such a beautiful color. Thanks doll!

*Thank you soooo much for the car diffuser! I cant wait to try it out. I'll let you know how my car smells after that. And the body butter. I put so much of it on my wishlist, and now have recieved two tubs of it. Ahhh.. it's going to be a very smooth skinned 2007. Thank you so very much.

*Yaaaaaaaaaay!! All the way from Austria.. someone sent me love. Pretty much a year supply of granola. Awesome. No seriously. You just made my boyfriend and I VERY happy. You are wonderful.
