Once upon a time in a land far, far away... a struggling artist in love had a Livejournal account. That blog, like most, captured and collected rants and raves, tumbleweeds and paint brush strokes, cat whiskers and journeys aplenty. Alas, the time came to close it down when the artist girl decided to take her adventures offline to see what the real world had to say about her bags of shiny treasures and stories of exciting near-misses.
The girl found, however, that although the real world tolerated her passionate musings about the death of ideas, Pegasus races, under-water tea parties, and other delightful descriptions of dreams come true... she never truly felt comfortable expressing herself there. So, she asked me to write an introduction to her new blog - the title of which is also the title of one of her fanciful paintings found at www.missingdoll.com. She is back, to tell her stories and rant her rants, and I for one am very pleased and also relieved. Last week she launched herself skyward and tried to jump on my back during a race, screaming, "Fly, fly, fly me to the top of the universe!" all the while gesturing wildly toward the heavens. I averted her attempts to mount me, and managed to win the race anyway. This blog should keep her busy and spare me any further indignity.
Sincerely Yours,
Eugene (Champion Pegasus, Golden Elite Squad)
You have Wings of your own
