The Upir's Mark Blog http://upirsmark.com This blog comes from an alternate reality. It's what happens when the members Siberia's most shocking band grow up, get married and move to Minnesota. Either that, or it's a semi-autobiographical blog hidden under layers of strippers, freakiness and metaphor. In any case, the Upir's Mark blog can be dirty, funny, but mostly bloggy!

Thanks for reading this blog for all these years.  It’s been a blast.  I guess it’s technically concluded, but I am not ready to commit to a goodbye yet. Let’s just say it’s on a vacation, shall we?  That would make me feel better.

Thanks for reading this blog for all these years.  It’s been a blast.  I guess it’s technically concluded, but I am not ready to commit to a goodbye yet. Let’s just say it’s on a vacation, shall we?  That would make me feel better. I would like the following people for making this blog possible:

  • Vas Littlecrow Wojtanowicz for drawing the majority of this shit for years with absolutely no compensation other than a desire to draw.
  • Tristan Tarwater, Narphy La Mancha, Emily Rose, Crazy Average, LaVonne, Skaja Wills, Erik the Dane,  Lupi, slaveboy thom, and all our other Twitter buds who publicly contributed to this work.
  • Caylie D., Stef D., El Interno del Inferno, Loki Kaspari, David Baker, Narphy and Vas for their work in creating the original Rasputin Catamite and Killer Dyke.
  • Green Geeks for providing us excellent web support and putting up with our growing pains.
  • We are so grateful for Project Wonderful, Reddit and 4chan that it’s almost impossible to describe why.
  • A special hanks to N.A. for screwing Vas over badly enough to inspire the creation Get Lost! which ultimately blossomed concept behind this blog.  Even turds are food for fertilizer sometimes.  Bardic justice is the best kind of justice.
  • Every cat we’ve ever met.

It’s been a great gig, but it’s kind of hard to keep a venting blog when I am happy and my brain is working right. I think it’s time to live and share a final bit of advice.  Break away from all conventions that do not lead to your earthly happiness, and may the good fortune you create bless you.

 

Safe travels,
Dmitri Shapinov

Dima’s been selling a lot of records on eBay.  A lot.  We’ve been visiting thrift stores, garage sales, clearance racks, auctions and store closeouts all over the place to gather up some gems.  So, we are going on a long vacation while we sell our condo.  We already bought a nice cabin in the woods on a short  sale.  Our new home is beautiful  and it’s a few hours away from the Twin Cities.  We love it.

Our vacation plans include visiting our daughter in Britain, Sasha’s family in France, and taking a really long road trip across the United States.  We might also bum around in Amsterdam for a bit.  It should be fun.  Needless to say, we’re not going to update the blog very much while we enjoy our big adventure.  We might check our comments every once in a while, but that will be the extent of our online presence until we come back.  I have no idea when we’ll return, but when we do, I’m sure we’ll have plenty to say.

Our farewell update will be happening on December 20th.  Be sure to look for it!

 

Thank you for visiting us,
Sasha & Dmitri
