Here is the husband's favorite of the series so far.

I have to admit, it's up there, though Between Heaven & Hell II is mine.

The giclee of this is even more awesome than this. It came out with this amazing blue tint that isn't really captured on screen. Could be a printer error, being the first print, but if it is, it's one of those awesome accidents that take the image to a whole new level.

Make sure you make with the clicky for the huge size for all the awesome detail.

Obvee, not at work, you pervs. Seriously NSFW.

It is my birthday.

I’m broke. But as a dear friend rightly pointed out, I have two gorgeous little girls, a wonderful husband, amazing friends, and I’ve apparently accomplished twice as much in my life before 40 then most people twice my age.

I’m still trying to wrap my head around that one. I am surrounded by so many incredibly talented, successful people, some of them very dear friends, that it’s hard to remember that not everyone else has done what I’ve done. Some people have never traveled out of the country, let alone been invited to show their art in Italy. Or shot Children’s Day events in Japan with the blessing of a Shinto priest. I've shown in Madison Square Garden. I've done...a lot. It doesn't seem like I have some days, but when he forced me to really look?

Yeah. I've been busy.

I have done incredible things. I’m doing incredible things right now. I have a small business. I am a great photographer. I am a great writer. I’m not a half bad painter. I’m an incredible costumer and designer. I’m a musician. And on top of that, I’m a halfway decent mother and wife apparently.

It’s not a bad thing to show for 39.

I may not be able to pay all my bills, but I don’t know anyone who can, who isn’t a lawyer and making twice what I make right now. And even they are squeaking in pain as chickens and cows do their thing.

So I’m broke. So what? So’s the world. We share parity.

It’s just money. I have a roof over my head. I have a job. I have food in the house. No one's throwing bombs at me.

Today, in honor of my birthday, I command you to go out and be equally awesome. Strike fear in your enemies and sound the call for your allies. Today, we kill till no Harkonnen breathes Arrakeen air.

Thank you for being in my life. You. Yes. You. This life and all the ones before it. I’d go to war with any of you, any time. You are all the reason that my life is as amazing as it is.

*blows you all a kiss*
