anyway, like I have posted on myspace....I'm getting tattooed this coming Sunday. For those of you who are anti-myspace (like you people actually exist), here is my recent blog posting, just to save me typing time, I will cut and paste for you:
Ok, so I haven't been tattooed in 5 years. I was looking at the unfinished swallows on my chest and finally I just realized that I have to do it. I have to get them done. The reason why I didn't get them done is b/c I could never decide what to do with them and I didn't want them to turn out shitty....like my other tattoos, so I just waited, hoping inspiration would hit me somewhere down the road. But this wait turned into forever, so I'm gonna go for it. For one, b/c I found a phrase that I absolutely love. I'm dedicating this tattoo to the people who love me and need me, especially Rob. I'm at a point in my life where I have a seriously strong support system under me for the first time since I left my home for college. Knowing that I have these people makes me so incredibly happy and I hope they know how much I appreciate them. So I went to see Scott last night and I have an appointment set up for next Sunday to get the outline redone and the colorwork done. Then I'll go back for the lettering and background work.
My lettering will be the phrase Amor Ergo Sum, which means "I am loved, therefore I am" in Latin. It's a play off of Descartes' famous saying, Cogito Ergo Sum or "I think, therefore I am."
Ok, I'll stop being a nerd.
And that's about it. Work still absolutely sucks....gotta find a new job. I'm excited about going to grad school but I'm still not sure how I'm going to pay for it. Rob and I are doing great. We are at 2 years 6 months and going strong. Hopefully, this will continue since we've booked the reception space already and I got a fat rock on my finger that could feed an Ethiopian village for 2 years if pawned.
