in about a month or two i am going to delete my flashybaby account. yes, my beloved flashybaby who almost made it to 1000 page views. i'm so proud of my gallery stats too! alas, i've decided that i want a little more of a seriousness to my page, the handle flashybaby just isn't going to cut it. but please, my faithful watchers, do feel i am comforming to adulthood or societal merits and lengths. i only want people, other you all and myself, to take my art as serious as i do. i love you all, and i love flashybaby, but now it's time for me to step in. yes, me, danielle villarreal (for those of you who don't even know my name), so that now the whole world can look at my art and say, "wow! danielle villarreal did that?" instead of, "h'mm. flashybaby has some interesting art."

if it were at all possible, i would hold a nice ceramony for my dear flashybaby where we can all join in and sing song and hold hands and hug and love and get drunk and fight and then say sorry and hug some more and get even more drunk and keep loving and weep and sing and hug and weep some more and then pass out only to wake up in puke and a hang over in the morning while rolling in sadness over my dear flashybaby. i guess i can always secretely do so in my heart.

love love love... the best thing in the whole world is love.
