I picked up this tattoo parlor flyer when the little one and I were at the LGBT Center on Market St. and thought, "If I ever got a tattoo, THAT’s where I’d wanna go!"  Well sure enough, that’s where I went and got tattooed last Friday, with my brother while he was in town visiting!  The studio’s called Dragonfly Ink now, but the same cool lady is still the owner/artist.  The tattoo’s about five inches at its longest part, and about three inches wide at its widest, and it was really fun to get. :-)  And painful, esp. since part of it goes right over my hip bone (YIKES that felt weird), but I’ve felt worse… so now I’m thinking of getting one every winter for a few years, instead of blowing cash and time flying back East.  I liked staying here, I like being able to work through the holidays (hooray for double-time holiday pay!), and I hope that’s cool with my family for a while.  Give me a number of years out here without holiday snow, and perhaps then I’ll WANT to go back and visit, rather than feeling kinda obligated to.
