neck tattoo

on saturday, j and i went to get tattoos. we were planning on just getting "hush" on our hands, but while waiting on the appointment, decided we couldn't possibly go without "tangle" also. i thought long and hard about the placement, and nothing seemed more fitting than this spot on my neck. i think it's beautiful, and tasteful, and didn't even think about the fact that the neck is a taboo place for a tattoo. then i went out last night, with a sweater and blazer because it was cold, and my sweetheart started laughing.

what? i asked.
it's just funny. you have a neck tattoo.
yeah, i know, i put it there.
it's just funny because you have on long sleeves and i can still see your tattoo.

then i realized he was pointing out that i can't really cover it up. i hadn't even thought about it. thank goodness i don't have a job where that matters, and that now i never will!


went out and played ping pong and fooz ball (sp?) and apparently, i'm pretty good at ping pong! i can thank my parents for all those summers at the y as a kid...

off to work now to check out the new goodies!

me...

yesterday was one of the most restful, lazy, productive saturdays i have had in a long time. it's no lie that i really can't remember the last time i woke up, started to do things around the house, then actually went back to bed. i woke up again at noon, 4 hours later than usual on saturdays. had lunch with my sweetheart, then met up with one of my favorite people for chocolate, collaboration, and tattoos.

i got one of hers: hush
she got one of mine: tangle
and we both got our own (pictures tomorrow)

AND THEN we made pizza and jewelry until the wee hours of the morning so that our sweet little earring trees would be filled to the brim on this fine sunday!

come see me.
