I think I found my next tat. I want a design based on this [link] with shoots and leaves for my family. (And a little bud for the one I lost.)

Now I just need to decide where it goes. Wrist growing up towards the elbow would be great but hard to hide at work (both of my current tats are in mostly-covered-by-clothes places).

Today's XKCD is earthquake related. Very cute.

Jessica, that is gorgeous and a lovely idea. I am also considering a wrist tattoo - it's definitely a big step to take (depending on workplace and/or career trajectory).

It does sound like a wonderful tat, Jessica.

I can see some of the old-school CBS union guys looking at me funny, but OTOH they already see me here every day with bright blue hair.

My interwebs are telling me that there was a big earthquake in the Mostly-Buffista Side of the World.

All OK?

There was no damage here; nothing knocked over but it was very roley and it made us seasick and went on for waaay too long. Usually we don't have time to ask each other, "shouldn't it be over by now?"

Pharmaceutical people: Is there a database or other source that will tell you how many/much of a particular drug is sold outside the US? We already know the drug in question is not sold in the US yet.

Most things in this country seem to be okay. Less so in Mexico. Natter tends to be the earthquake thread for reasons I've never even thought to wonder about. Quakes happen and I pop in there.

I'm glad to hear all here are OK.

On my side, 25 minutes till brownie!

We were out working in the yard during the quake and didn't even notice.
