1) I have settled on a tattoo design, but I'm going to wait until I get back from Florida to have it done, because there's going to be a pool and hot tub at the house where we're staying (as well as the pool at my parents' house) and you're not supposed to swim for three months after you get fresh ink. If I get it done right after we get home I'll

Yeah, you know when I say something like, 'oh, if I stop writing fic no one will miss me, there's always something else to read', and people are all, 'no, no, you're wrong!' Uh huh. Not that I blame anyone, because I get that most people are only here for the fic, and that's fine, but there's no reason to pretend otherwise.

I didn't really care about The Hunger Games, but then my nephew and the movie premiere etc. you've already heard all that.

My feelings about the first six chapters of the second book are pretty mixed. We'll see if she can turn it around.

Congratulations on 1300 words! That's much better than I did yesterday, though SOMEONE called in sick today, so I guess I will spend the whole day writing, because clearly we don't need to bother working in this office.

I thought you were getting your tattoo with a friend? Or are you not going to be in the same city at the time? We should discuss this further, because I'm flexible and I enjoy going on vacations and coming home with a surprise tattoo. Plus it's more fun if you go with someone else. I was just going to go to the little shop up the block after work one day, but I'd be willing to wait awhile, unless you have to wait for your birthday or something.

Anyway. We should discuss logistics.
