tattoo street team?

yesterday after work, jess and i stopped by our local tattoo shop. it seems they are in need of a street team, to help them canvas the local area with their business cards and postcards. so jess and i will be hitting up as many places in these west burbs as we can. in the next month or so, we plan on spreading the love so to speak. we plan on hitting some grocery stores, book stores, coffee shops, record store(s), bars, colleges, and anywhere we see a need for people to be in the know about where to get a solid tattoo. oh, and just why oh why would we be willing to do such a lovely service??? for some free tats, DUH! the great thing about this, is that we both have tattoos from kevin, and love his work. so it's a wonderfully fair trade.

here is jess' tattoo that she had done at ronin:


and here is my tat:

the above image may be familiar, since it is from the godspeed you black emperor! album art:



so look forward to pics of new tattoos in the coming months!

tomorrow is jess' last final, and she is super psyched about being done with school. also cinco de mayo is coming up, which actually means far less to me, because that is brayden's 3 year birthday! so uncle ryno will be super excited to celebrate his b-day!

hold my calls, i'm too busy blogging...

after re-reading jess and i's post, it got me thinking about one of my most favorite youtube viedo:



so f-wording funny...

blogging!

Oh GOODNESS, things have been pretty busy here in gesso-land! school is just about done (i have a final and one research presentation this week and i’m DONE!)

panda-watchers has been going well... though i wholeheartedly admit to not being as good about cooking & exercising as i should have been. things have just seemed so hectic with the end of the semester madness!! regardless, i’m getting back on track this week... i started exercising again and we have a fridge full of yummy produce, plus some great cookbooks to utilize.

we’ve also been considering what we’re going to do when we get economically stimulated! we’re going to definitely work towards paying some bills and i’m definitely considering putting my part towards tattoos. i'm sure ryno has considered the possibility of records.

i'm going to make a big post with all of the yummy meals we've been having, but this is just a update into the world of the bears!

Oh my bloggness!

Where have we been? Well we have been busy, and maybe a bit blogged out. Not that we haven’t had many many many things to blog about. I know it’s been nearly a month, but being that we do not have many faithful readers, I guess we didn’t feel too obligated. So if your out there let us know!!!!

Oh goodness! Jess is almost done with school…less than a week to go! Whoa!

Oh and remember when we posted our weights, and said we would weigh in once a month, well we both did great! We weighed in april 6th, and jess lost 6.2 pounds and I lost 8 pounds….so go PANDA-WATCHERS! Next Sunday will be our second weigh-day. So hopefully we can prove that panda watchers is an official healthy way of living, and then we can sell it and market it.


The kitties have been up to their savage selves:






Tonight we have been having a Wes Anderson Sunday, we watched ‘bottle rocket’ and now we are watching ‘rushmore’….goodness great films…and here is a montage of the best parts from rushmore:
