embarrassing our employees in public again

[denise]

You know, in nine years when we're all celebrating DW's tenth anniversary, we are going to all look back and say that hiring fu when we did was the smartest thing we could have done. Seriously: she's smart, talented, creative, and motivated, which are all highly important qualities, but the one quality she has that makes her such a brilliant hire is that she is positively gleeful about what she does (and whom she's doing it for), and that kind of enthusiasm is not only great to see, it's infectuous. I never fail to walk away from a conversation from her without feeling like this is the best project ever. The degree to which this improves my productivity cannot be measured.

So, I wanted to take a second and announce to Dreamwidth (or at least the subset of Dreamwidth that is reading my journal) that she is awesome and we made a damn good choice when we hired her. Because everyone should know that fu rocks. That is all.

I've got just the normal point of origin (without the "sun" turned into a trans symbol) done on the back of my neck. Only tattoo I've got so far, had it done in 2005. (http://twitpic.com/15dqfs bad pic)... it's a little small, and I wish I'd put it in a place I could see... but lesson learned.

I'm not sure where I want to get this one done. For years I've wanted to get "the universe is infinite" in Ancient (picking the symbols they used in Avalon Pt 2) done either around my wrist or on the inside of my left forearm... so I don't want to conflict with those plans, and I feel totally weird about putting any ink on my right arm, just doesn't seem like where it should go for some reason. Thinking on my calf, like three inches tall, or so.

yeah, I have a lambda at the nape of my neck (for a lot of reasons, but mostly for the juxtaposition between the gay-rights symbol and the word logos; it was done to cheer me up after a bad string of religion vs queerness incidents) and a geometric lines-and-angles along the small of my back. My next piece is probably going to be the Sh'ma Yisrael in hebrew around one ankle and the Adhan in Arabic around the other, but I'm still not 100% sold on it; I might want to save the Sh'ma for elsewhere. It's all very complicated! But I've been getting that itchy want-new-ink feeling lately, so I might cave and get something. I'm kind of at the point where I need to do some long-term design work and thinking before I get any more ink done, though.

I don't have any ink where I can see it either, but my girlfriend appreciates them at least :)
