tattoo habits

i probably have the worst habit. not the most disgusting, or freaky, but it's pretty bad; for me. i sit on my feet. not even noticing until from my knees down have reached the stage of beyond uncomfortable. then i'll have to get up to answer the phone, or use the bathroom, or something else incredibly badly timed. i end up walking, on painfully numb legs, drunkenly across hallways etc. i do it everywhere. on my bed, on the floor, when i eat, at school, on the field, etc etc etc. it plays complete havoc with my knees and will probably lead to multiple shin transplants in the future. but it's a comfortable sitting position; for half an hour at least.

(i came up with a really good idea earlier...) ah, yes.
i work with two lovely girls who are both tattoo fanatics. they have them on their ribs, on their ankles, behind their ears, on their wrists and torsos. i don't have that kind of passion for body art, however, i do appreciate it when it's done well. one thing i can't stand is horrible, dodgy tattoos. pretty much everyone who has ever inhabited planet earth has seen the video for Where is the Love, by the Black Eyed Peas - arguably one of the best songs of all time. and there's one shot of a woman, getting gas for her car, with the iconographic '?' symbol tattooed onto her arm. if i was ever going to get one, that would be it. just because it is so fantastically cool.

P.S. don't you just love it when the first of the month is on a monday?

I am so bad at sitting on my feet. When I do finally get up, like you, I tend to fling myself across the run so I make the journey because I know my legs are that numb that they won't make it =) xx
