How far we got

So happy! We got a lot further than we expected to, and we've got a tentative appt for this coming February. Portland, Maine, where Chris Dingwell is now working (out of Sanctuary Tattoo) is very cute, and the time with forestfire

Ooooh! You have a very talented tatoo artist.

I love the progression.

And I like the clit idea.

Ha! I want a t-shirt that reads:

The clitoris.
Always a good idea.

*grin* He's awesome. Done well for himself in the decade since I last saw him, too. Craploads of awards in that studio.

Can't wait for my next appt!

Yay, clits!

That is just gorgeous. The darker it gets the better it looks, so I'm definitely in favor of adding some dark red to the ribbon. Gotta love the menstruation imagery.

Heh, now I'm imagining how utterly cheesy it would be if the ribbon were pink. Though you could probably get part of the work subsidized by the Komen people if it were.

*chuckle* Yeah, pink would be marvelously cheesy. "Tattoo for the Cure!"

Actually, I'm trying to decide what color I'd want the clit tattoo. I'm normally not a pink person at all, but I think rose-red shading to blood-red might work, and not be too Barbie for me.

Oh wow- that is stunningly beautiful. I love the idea of the clit tattoo- Keep us updated on any future planning for that if you please. :)

Speaking of sex and science geekery, have you picked up the book "Bonk" yet? I got it about a month ago thinking I wouldn't be able to put it down and now it's been relegated to a shelf in my bedroom only to pick up when I'm finished with everything else. I was reading a review of it on Greta Christina's blog and thought of you immediately for some reason [unfortunately, I don't know many geeks who like to combine their sex with science in real life], so here you go: http://blog.blowfish.com/culture/greta-christina-tee-hee-you-said-bonk/800

I loved Bonk! My copy's on loan to a friend right now, actually!

I'll definitely post as I make decisions about the clit tattoo; right now I'm checking into local artists, and debating about color.

Wow! Very nice!

Unrelated, other than in a very vague way: I love Maine so much.

[moominmuppet]

Thanks!

And Maine, at least away from the coast, smells like home. I grew up in pine forests in MI.
