Simple, Progressive, and Sensual

36 Ukiyo-e, 22 Islamic, -1 Impressionist, -29 Cubist, -39 Abstract and 29 Renaissance!

Ukiyo-e (浮世絵, Ukiyo-e), "pictures of the floating world", is a genre of Japaneseand paintings produced between the 17th and the 20th centuries. it mostly featured landscapes, historic tales, theatre, and pleasure. Ukiyo is a rather impetuous urban culture that has bloomed in popularity. Although the Japanese were more strict and had many prohibitions it did not affect the rising merchant class and therefore became a floating art form that did not bind itself to the normal ideals of society.

People that chose Ukiyo-e art tend to be more simplistic yet elegant. They don't care much about new style but are comfortable in creating their own. They like the idea of living for the moment and enjoy giving and receiving pleasure. They may be more agreeable than other people and do not like to argue. They do not mind following traditions but are not afraid to move forward to experience other ideas in life. They tend to enjoy nature and the outdoors. They do not mind being more adventurous in their sexual experiences. They enjoy being popular and like being noticed. They have their own unique style of dress and of presenting themselves. They may also tend to be more business oriented or at the very least interested in money making adventures. They might make good entrepreneurs. They are progressive and adaptable.

Stolen from Emma Grant01

The Purse Meme
01 take a picture of your bag.
02 now dump everything out and neatly adjust them, and take a picture [no matter how embarrassing].
03 talk about the items inside. details, plz.

================================


It looks innocent enough doesn't it?




Alrighty-roo... Attached to my purse on the left is the Blue Ribbon that was tied around a Blue Rose ma Hubby gave me when we first met! *awwwwwwww*licks ma hubby*

Above that is Raven's back up for when Raven is being a goldfish and manages to lock her keys itn the car accidently locks her keys in Luka, its the spare remote opener for Luka cuz I'm hardly ever without my purse. Attached to the other side of my purse is a little "Paw Power" thingie Dame gave me that he bought at school, because they're the "Sweeny Cougars!" *rawwwrrrr* Go Paw Power! :D

Under that if you can see it is an animal tag that I had stamped with the year and month I bought Artemis. It says "Artemis" on one side and "5-05" on the other. *pets kitty* I want to get another tag for the kittens cuz according to the Vet, he put their birthdays in May as well. ^_^'

Under my purse are my sunglasses - Ray bans baby! under the glasses is the pouch that holds my Zune ear buds.

Next row, is my comb, I know it's really a pick but it's the only thing that gets through my hair. Under that is my small collection of cards, like bank account cards, other folk's business cards, Insurance cards, blah, blah, blah...

Under that are Raven's business cards. It took Raven over 14 years!!!! to get my own cards. Sticky notes used to be my business cards always writing down my name and number so then I finally bitched whined that I'd been there long enough I need my own cards! Damnit! Gimme some cards! So now that I've got them, I think I've used three of them. >.>'

Under the all important Raven Business cards is the carrying case for my stupid splint so I can take it out to eat or drink anything that isn't water; then my Cell Phone aka my $75.00 watch because no one calls me. =(

Next are some freebie movie tickets and free popcorn! Yay! Then my pen and scribble paper for when I find a word I want to use at some point and/or look up in the dictionary. The Pen is in the way of the word I wrote down, it's "Ossuary".

Under that, the red square is actually my change purse. These are hard to find, at least around here, I bought this YEEEAARRRSSSSS ago, I don't even think Dame was born yet. o_O To open it you sorta open it by lifting a corner and it opens from the center, unfolds sort like a box.

Under that is my drug box! Rees bought this for me, it's wooden and slides open and holds about 4 cut up tables. Then what respectable (former) EMT doesn't carry some form of bandage(s)?

Then! Raven's Zune!

Next row!

Hair rubber band, a MUST for hot blooded Raven, gotta get the hair off my neck! Under that is my Glasses cleaning cloth, then my rarely used lipstick (the orange colored one Fae! ^_^) then a little flashlight Elz gave me and of course tweezers. >.>'

Last but not least Carmex because wearing the splint dries out my lips something awful! then a rock Mer gave me and a blue stone Dame bought me, and a talisman Rees made for me for good health.

and last but not least!!!!!

Yes that is a Greek flag! It's there in the first picture but only lived in Raven's purse for today because Rees and I went to the Greek Festival! YAyyyyy! I finally got to goooooo! Loved it! Makes me want to go back!!!! GO BACK NOW! and see my Hubby again!

The food was sooooooo goood! I should have bought the music CD but I didn't have any more tickets and it was a pain to get tickets to begin with so ya, no CD.

But I do have some pics!

I finally got to go to the Greek Fesitival!



Why do the women have the long skirts and the men wear the short ones? Not complaining, I think men should be wearing short skirts. *nods*



*pictures dear Hubby dressed like this* =D





I managed to capture them while they were all in the air!




The guy second from the right, I think he hurt his leg or foot or something cuz he was limping quite a bit afterwards. Poor guy.


They were selling these, plants in Greek Olive Oil cans. Okayyyy..






See? Here is where Raven "Found" and took home the Greek Flag. >.>'
I wanted to take the ship too, but it was too big to smuggle out in my purse.

/Meme. :D

More to come, of this you can be sure of.

Raven's Kink

There was posted by one of my younger friends over on Live Journal a Meme where you listed your kinks. Whether it be real, fictional, visual, from a book, movie - whatever it is that is your kink!

So here begins Raven's Kink posting and if you haven't figured it out by now, Raven is a visual type Raven.

More postings to come I'm sure of it.

I was tagged

As Tagged by The Troll and Amourous Rocker.

I've been TAGGED for the famous Smith Magazine Memoir Meme:

Legend has it that Hemingway was once challenged to write a story in only six words. His response? “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” Last year, SMITH Magazine re-ignited the recountre by asking our readers for their own six-word memoirs. They sent in short life stories in droves, from the bittersweet (“Cursed with cancer, blessed with friends”) and poignant (“I still make coffee for two”) to the inspirational (“Business school? Bah! Pop music? Hurrah”) and hilarious (“I like big butts, can’t lie”).

Okayyyyy just rememeber you asked for them.

Priest and Peacock, One True Pairing.





Tattoos hurt and I love it.




Just smile and say, Yes Mistress.




Say it like you mean it.




It's my kink, I admit it.




Face it, Too Good For You.



Addicted to ink and the pain.





It hurts and no one cares.




Touch my coffee and die horribly.




Tell me that you miss me.



As Amourous Rocker pointed out very wisely, I am branching out and I tag:
