Ahoy!
I am formally known as Natasha; jewelry designer and general scatter-brained dreamer. I am informally known by many other names, such as Lady Commissar; "model" and goodness knows what else people think of me. I am pretty much oblivious to the general public opinion of my person with the exception of what people tell me. I have psychic tendencies, sometimes I have 4-eyes and have considered (pre-Scarlett *gag*) Black Widow to be my long-time alter-ego, personality-perfection for years.
First of all, I don't consider myself much of a "bloggy" type, mostly because I highly doubt anyone has any real interest in what I have to say, but partly because most of what I have to say sounds better in my head and not in writing.
I am an avid dreamer, often crafting concepts and designs in my head, of which I do not have the resources to bring to fruition, and for which the studio apartment I share with my beloved, is too klein. I am terrible at explaining things and my Russian and German are often more eloquent than my English ever will be. (Can you believe I used to be a fantastic writer? Unfortunately, writing seems to be a skill that few college professors appreciate anymore, and a skill that I rarely have the patience to use.)
I love violent rainstorms, everything to do with Halloween, appalling high fashion, hand guns and period-era films and if I could spend the rest of my life standing on my head, in a tight Victorian corset, drinking too much coffee, eating too much pasta, watching every Scorsese film in existence and NOT having to do dishes EVARR, well that would be swell, fine and peachy-keen with me. I flourish under the chaos of short deadlines, but turn into a monster when my apartment is a mess. I own and operate every aspect of my jewelry design company, Blue Anchor, and even in this area I am both a self-proclaimed procrastinator and photographer extraordinaire of supremely terrrible proportions. (This is where having friends in the modeling industry comes in handy. Everyone wins!)
I have a fantastic man in the "house" who always does the dishes for me, keeps me warm at night, fed at day and is a talented wood-working artist (though he won't admit to it). We're raising two gray-and-white medium-hair kittens we rescued from a shelter at 9-weeks of age; Bella ne Bellatrix (who is obsessed with water and insists on attacking the mermaid charm on my cell phone) and Freyja (who likes to "booger" people in the face with her nose first thing in the morning and insists on sending messages by stealing my magnetic poetry from the fridge). I'm as smitten with Harry Potter as the rest of the world and possess an extensive collection of books about Pirate history, as well as Russian language, culture and history. I love films, but dislike going to the cinema. I also get really testy when Pandora tries to sneak Katy Perry into my Rammstein station or Regina Spektor into my Lily Allen/Kate Nash stations.. *grumbles incoherently*
I also talk too much, then become distraction and lose interest in everything I was saying in the first place.
So instead, here are some of my favorite things:
