This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, it's a plan!

For you, I'm thinking across the back of your shoulders.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

JSw, I sent it a couple of days ago, so let me know if it didn't go through.

Jesse, that would run it into my first tattoo, so I think maybe up the side of my calf would be better.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

This is beautiful.

I can't even.

Ah okay, thanks. I'll get back to you later today.

Right on.

Actually, I have a practical tattoo question for everyone: I'm wary of getting a tattoo anywhere that would be seen in a job interview, so no lower leg/ankle/foot etc. Am I overly paranoid, you think?

Not overly paranoid, but more conservative than many.

Then again, so am I. Both of my tattoos are easily covered by clothing that is not a burqa.

I figure better safe than sorry, I guess. Once I'm an ED, I'll get my hands and face tattooed.

Nah. A friend of mine got a few of hers back when she thought she was going into theoretical math, which, as you know, is such a hotbed of straightlaced conservatism on a public stage. Or something.

These days, she's a public defender, and all her ink is easily covered in court.

Also, her greatgrandmother probably would have had a heart attack if she ever knew.

Mine is too. I even have some tank tops that cover it.
