+thanks to everyone who left messages expressing their concern for my family and I, it's been a terrible experience, since we live in Concepcion (Chile) and we were hit directly by the 8.8 quake. however, our apartment building handled it well, we weren't near the coast so were not threathened by the Tsunami and after a scary week we're finally together & safe. the beautiful old house where my tattoo shop was housed didn't resist the violence of the earthquake: the whole front of the second story crumbled and fell, and will surely have to be demolished. the old family which lived there and rented the space will lose their house and workplace (a dental clinic), and both Ekeko Design Market and 13Agujas Tattoo & Art Cabinet will have to start again somewhere else.

i have been meaning to update my journal and explain why i haven't been around since i left my position as Gallery Moderator, and its working title pretty much sums it up:
"it's not you, baby... it's me"
the details seem somewhat unimportant now, and i could go into it later if you want to, but i love dA and all of you as much as always.

thanks for caring,
d.+
