You know what'd be even cooler? A tattoo of HKVader and HKStormtrooper holding hands, with little hearts floating above them....

Shut up, you.

Oh, whew, Liese, that's a relief!

lesson for young children on the importance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day during a tour of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Library in Washington, DC, 21 January 2008.

...there's something depressing and ironic about how TERRIBLE DC's library system is, and how awful that particular building is, really. (The building was designed by a famous architect, but leaks and is not terribly useful as a library, etc)

I hate when I do that, which is more often than it should be.

I know! I don't mind when I make big complicated mistakes. But when I make stupid not-paying-attention mistakes I get all wrought up. Particularly since this report is overdue and has been a big giant problem the whole way through.

But it's okay. And it's done now, save the proofreading. So, yeah, total relief.

Now I'm going to go bake bread and have a hot bath and do anything that's totally not this report for a while.

Oh my. I just read the comments to the Vader Hello Kitty tattoo - the actual tattoo artist had this to say:

lol thanks for the compliments. Yes this was another free tattoo of the month. I only do them when I’m bored and need to do a tattoo that will make me laugh.

...

The darth vader tattoo is on a guys chest. The jesus one is on the inside of another guys arm.

To answer demeters question, why not. lol Its funny. Seriously though its all because the tattoo is free. Like this darth vader one, I don’t even think the kid knew it was hello kitty or darth vader. All he knew was it was free and he wanted a tattoo. Its really sad to think thats all the amount of thought that was put into the idea of getting the tattoo but thats the kind of clients I deal with daily; whatever is cheapest to them is good. They don’t care at all. So I figured if people aren’t going to think about what they’re getting I might as well use that to my advantage and do some fun tattoos.

Um... huh?

Free Hello Kitty Darth Vader tattoos!?!?! There is a god.

So I figured if people aren’t going to think about what they’re getting I might as well use that to my advantage and do some fun tattoos.

hah! that is awesome!

I'm just glad he's not tatooing goatse on people.

(note: this is not a request to find me a link to a photo of a goatse tattoo. I would not be at all surprised to find out somebody already has one)

People are bananas.

Oh! The amazing give-away powers of my building lobby continue. This afternoon, I put two decorative candles and one Happy Meal toy on the floor, and they were gone within an hour. This is so ideal -- I neither have to let strangers into my apartment, nor lug anything anywhere!

MonsterHoodies!!

At what point, exactly, did hooded sweatshirts become hoodies? I missed the memo.
