Gone Fishin'

Hey, luvvies. I'm taking the day off (from work and blogging) today. Before the day is over, I'll have a brand new suit, and a brand new tattoo. I'll be almost literally a new man. The new me will be back with y'all tomorrow.

Just make sure they spell "Virginia" correctly, alright? Good times. But seriously, whatcha gettin'?

You know, the accent over the alpha in the "arete" on my right forearm is going in the wrong direction (although I did the calligraphy myself, and I know I did it the right way). But I always thank my lucky stars when I think that nowhere on my body does it say "Virgina."

The pic that I got is in the first of today's posts, but the story behind it is that it's the grecian urn of "Ode on a Grecian Urn." Ironicially, it's not even a legit Greek vase. It's called the Sosibios Vase, and it was in Napoleon's collection. Then somebody did a rubbing of it, and Keats did a tracing of the rubbing and then wrote a great poem about it. The thing that's oozing on my back is the tracing that Keats did. It's really pretty awesome, I just wish I could sit back in my chair.
