Be More Chill...and Perhaps Tattooed

So I began reading this book today. It's from a stack of brand-new YA novels that Anne gave me the other day. Here's my favorite passage so far:

"Whenever I'm agonizing over an issue, the girl (and there has to be a girl, otherwise how could there be an agonizing issue?) has never given it a second thought. The moments of my life that are amazing and concussive are nothing to girls."

Concussive? Brilliant.

And I'm thinking of getting a tattoo. My first. At 35. Yup. I wanted to do it when I was 27, but, somehow, it never happened. Now I'm back on it again. I blame Anne. :) If I do it, I would like to have this guy do it. And I am thinking something running related, like maybe The Flash, as I am enjoying a renaissance in my running career. I am getting in the best shape I've been in years. And I want to commemorate it. Plus, I think it'd be kinda cool.

My only worry is that if I get The Flash, I just know that Hollywood will make some crappy, homoerotic movie version, and I'll have to go through the super-painful laser removal.

Ah, maybe I should just be like Henry Rollins and get band logos all over my body. :)
