Your love is my scripture. Let me into your encryption.

Howdy, friends! How are you doing on this lovely Valentine's Day eve?

I'm about the same I've been all month: buzzing with energy and excitement because TOMORROW (finally! tomorrow!!!!) I am getting my first ever tattoo. riyku is coming with me to hold my hand/tease me for being afraid of needles, and it's going to be sooo fucking beautiful. Seriously

I await photographic proof of your tattooed self with bated breath...

[cherie_morte]

I AM GOING TO POST THE PICTURES ON EVERYTHING. ON MY LJ. TWITTER. YOUR BEDROOM DOOR...

You won't be able to miss is. :D

[blythechild]

Excellent. I'm extremely pro-tattoo (I'm even pro-tattoo pain, but that's probably TMI...)

[cherie_morte]

I think that's hot!

I'm nervous about the needles, but not the pain. We'll see if I feel differently after I've actually, you know, FELT IT. XD

Your posts are always so amusing, and somewhere between a rain of confetti and a train whizzing past LOL!!!

I like your idea of receiving prompts. My issue with things like masquerade is I start reading prompts and promptly become overwhelmed and leave.

How did you fail last year's bang??? Are we talking the J2-are-stuck-in-the-missile-silo story? Because I freakin' loved that!

[cherie_morte]

*honking train sounds* *rainbow glitter rains down*

It's the same thing for me with masquerade. So many prompts, so few of which interest me, that I would get tired and give up after like 2 pages. I also know there are things I will read that will squick me out, which is why I never did blindfold before. But since other people DO do all the reading, I just let myself benefit from their hard work. ^__^

I failed to write (or even start...) the story I plan to write this year for last year's bang. I ended up using the missile silo fic, which I also really like, but which is a little quiet and subdued and not really bigbang epic, because I'd finished it over a year ago and never got around to posting it, and I needed a back-up because I failed to write what I actually meant to.

i love sharks a lot, too, cherie. i was even accepted to a college in florida where i was going to go study to become an ichthyologist. i wanted to study great whites. but i knew that as a scientist, i would spend my life going around begging for funding most of the time. so i went to school and graduated with a degree in communications and english writing. (just goes to show how smart i am; i lost my job a while ago and i'm still unemployed.) my point is that i share your love of sharks. i always wanted to get a baby great white and raise it in the swimming pool in our backyard when i was a kid, too.

also good to know that masquerade is coming up again. i participated last year. maybe i'll do it again this year. looking forward to reading your new rbb you just posted. i'm sure it will be awesome as always. =)

SHARKS ARE JUST THE BEST. It is my dream to one day see a real great white IRL. And I also really wanna do that thing where you pay a buttload of money and swim with whale sharks at the Atlanta aquarium. Shhhaaarrrkkksss. If you do end up getting a lil baby great white, please let me come over to pet it

[cackling_madly]

I'm so curious about your tattoo! Will be waiting to see it:) I, too, am afraid of needles so I never seriously considered getting one until recently, when I saw a simple, lovely tattoo I fell in love with. Then I found out one of the guys from 1D has the same kind of tattoo. So nope.

If you still need someone to look over your fic (and don't mind that I won't be able to get to it until Monday or Tuesday), let me know :)

[cherie_morte]

It's going to punch me in the feelings every time I see it. :') I've always wanted one, but the time has finally come. :DDDD That sucks about your tattoo :( What was it? You sure you wanna let some 1D punk ruin it for you????

I would seriously appreciate it!! Not looking at it until next week is fine, I wanna do some fun writing this weekend. XD Could you DM me your email on Twitter? I know I used to have it, but my hotnail is terrible at remembering things.

I am sure that Riyku will be a WONDERFUL coach on deep-breathing and relaxing through the process. The more you tense, the more it hurts, so if you find yourself holding your breath, or tensing your body, just close your eyes, and breathe.

But really though, it's super fun, and you can't really see the needle--it's not like they're continuously going in with the type that we use when we're giving an IM injection.

You'll do GREAT and I can't wait to see it!!!

[cherie_morte]

Haha, this was such great advice and I was so grateful until you linked the needle to the ones you use at work and now I'm flashing back to all the medical disasters I've read about your job in the last few weeks. XD

[ephermeralk]

Lol!

It's OK. I'm sure the needle they use will be 100% Hep-C FREE, which means you've got one up on me and all the needles I deal with every day.

Plus, they're just injecting ink into the skin. Not veins, and not arteries (good god, I never want to have to pull arterial blood) so YOU'RE SAFE. IT'S A NO-MISS ZONE

[cherie_morte]

And yet the only word in this comment that's standing out to me is HEP-C. :P
