lazy Monday

Oh what a wonderful day. It was a very quiet Monday at work- my kids are just winding down this quarter and I spent all day reviewing for their mid-term with them, and my Seniors were in the lab working on their Senior Research paper. It was a great day. Plus, knowing I have just four short days left until Fall Break is making it fly by. After work I came home and did absolutely nothing until about 8pm, which was much-needed and well-deserved, if you ask me! Around 8:30 I decided to get some cardio and my lifting done, so I dragged myself to the gym but it quickly turned into an amazing workout and I left feeling awesome.

I have a few different topics I want to write about this week, but today I'll keep it to this short update since I should probably head to sleep!

I got a little photobooth crazy about five minutes ago...

Monday night

"Mom? Why do you make me take silly photos?"

"But really..."

Hey guys!

Oh! Also, Hank is playing with the Misfits next month when they get back from tour. This "version" of the Misfits is annoying and stupid, but it should still be a fun show! I love the venue and location.

November, Hank's band is playing this when they get back from their full US tour

Jonathan Britto, homenagem à mãe, 169


"Olá, meu nome é Jonathan. Eu tenho uma tatuagem com o nome de minha mãe. Ela é a pessoa mais especial para mim, pois sempre foi uma mulher batalhadora, e sempre lutou para me sustentar e sustentar a família. Essa é a primeira tatuagem que eu fiz. Fiz com Gabriela Tattoo em Salvador. Valeu!"

Lady Miscue of Delight

This was almost an orphan post, but I have enough to make it work.

Last month, I boarded the 2 train, downtown, and was standing next to a young lady with a colorful fairy on her upper right arm:


The woman's name was Elura, and she had this done at Daredevil Tattoo in Manhattan. Other work from Daredevil has appeared on Tattoosday previously here.

Alas, the train was noisy, and Elura was getting off at 14th Street, one station away. I asked her what the fairy was about, and she said, "She's Lady Miscue of Delight".

I scribbled that down and Elura said she would e-mail me with more detail. She never did and, try as I might, I couldn't figure out what looks like a fairy, and sounds like "Lady Miscue of Delight".

So that is what I will call her, until I have been corrected.

Regardless, thanks to Elura for sharing her tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!

UPDATE:

Jeremy, below, in the comments, suggested that perhaps Elura meant, Lady Miss Kier, of the musical group Deee-lite:



The photo indicates that may be correct. Thanks Jeremy!
