The deed is done ! I'm tattooed. Inked. Badtz-Marued even !

I now have a tiny red chameleon on the left side of my belly, right above the hip bone and a bigger Badtz Maru on the small of my back on the right side.

Did it hurt ? Errr... I dozed off while the tattoo artist was filling in the Badtz ! She'd stopped chatting and asked after a while I suppose if I was ok and I realized I was nearly sleeping. That's what happens when I'm asked to stay still for too long !

I seriously wonder if I have any nerve endings or if I'm like Claire in Heroes...

I'm thrilled by the results. I'm going to post pictures even though Badtz tends to look a little swollen. The chameleon looks ok but the skin around it is reddish.

Next on my tattoo list : Stitch holding a Martini glass and a Tiki god. I've given up on the idea of having a barbed wire bracelet done around my ankles to protect me from the grasp of werewolves crouching in the woods. Because I rarely go in the woods. And I no longer think werewolves are real.

Blythou out.

Our guest for the week-end arrived this morning... First word she uttered while entering Rude Manor was "chat", (French for cat in case you have no clue, which I doubt). Armand heard that and promptly decided to hide behind Thierry's bag, but his fluffy butt and tail were still visible, which didn't elude Margaux.

She then "helped" Thierry play Mario Kart by holding his wheel and pressing various wiimote buttons. He thought it was hilarious for some reason ;-)

And finally, we went to buy fruits and vegs with her (along with a little plastic chair for Margaux) and since she was a little grouchy (needed a nap and all that), we pretended our cucumbers were light sabers and attacked her in the store while making the classic lightsaber sound. She loved it. We'll probably have to go shop there with fake beards and wigs for a couple of months until everyone has forgotten, but what the hell, she had fun !

I can't believe how well she manages to eat (she barely misses her mouth now). And how fun and cute and cuddly she is.

And this is OT, but I've found the two tattoo I really want. I'll have a tiny stylized chameleon on one hip and a Bad Badtz Maru on the other. I thought about having a Stitch, but I want very simple, basic designs... I'm seeing the tattoo artist next week, I can't wait to get inked. In the meantime, I'd love more piercings in my ears...

Blythou out.
