    I have not left my apartment since I got home from work on friday night! The weather in Chicago really sucks and sometimes its good to stay in your pajamas all day.

    I was thinking about venturing downstairs to the mailbox to get yesterdays mail :)

    When we meet will you chase me around the bar singing the Mission Impossible theme tune? This has become one of my new 1001 things to do before you die. :D

    I have the design for mine already. A very talented friend designed it.
    It's based on Given To Fly. Like you though, I'm not sure where it's gonna go :D

    I don't think the Mission Impossible thing would work with you... It's the way his chubby little legs wobble... and the giggle... and you need a toothbrush! :o:D

    It's a labyrinth - an architectural structure. Medieval monks used to walk around them as part of their pilgrimage, and as a way of doing contemplative prayer. Some cathedrals, especially in France, have beautiful examples. I'll find one, hang on...

    I could bring a toothbrush, and I giggle - sometimes - but I'm not sure I could get my legs to wobble. :D

    Yes, it does. Just thinking about trying to explain.. I'll get back to you in a mo :D

    Edit: I am a Christian (although I write that reluctantly as it's such a loaded word - I'm certainly no evangelical anymore). I have always been fascinated by ancient faith. Many evangelicals seem to subconsciously think that real Christianity only started in 1970s America. I've always loved labyrinths. The Labyrinth is one path. It's not a maze with dead ends, yet it confuses because it constantly travels inwards, and then back outwards, and then inwards again, until it reaches the centre. Seems like faith is similar. You think you're getting somewhere, but then life turns back on itself again, travels outwards, and then you have to travel inwards again. It's 1 step forward, 3 steps back. But we can only hope that one day we'll reach some kind of centre.

    I think the act of tattooing itself seems to be a meaningful experience as well. From my experience, all faiths seem to be about having to go through pain and change in order to see the beauty and purpose in life. There's no light without dark. No ressurection before crucifixion... And the needle is a bit like the nail.

    And of course the labyrinth is a LONG ROAD, so there's a bit of PJ in there as well. :D

    You can give them a general idea and they'll do their best. They're not going to tattoo you until you've agreed to their design on paper first anyway, so you'll be ok. But make sure you see examples of their work on photographs first.

    I've been thinking of getting a tattoo as well. Planning on getting this on my arm:

    Would you care to elaborate? :o What does it mean?

    I WAS WARNED AWAY FROM MY TATTOO PLACE TODAY...

    Two guys with very nice tattoos said 'Where are you going to get yours done?' and I told them and they said 'Don't go there, they're very inconsistent and the guy can't draw very well.' And then he said to his mate 'Would you go there to get a tattoo?' and the guy said 'Nope.'

    So I've rescheduled.. taken a raincheck on it. I'll do more research and do it maybe in the new year. :( I was SO PSYCHED as well.

    It's taken from the cover of the Slow Riot for New Zero Kanada EP by my favourite band (besides Pearl Jam), Godspeed You! Black Emperor. It's hebrew and means "and lo, it was waste and void". The meaning is secondary to the visual appeal for me, and the band reference.
