It's going to be a slow Sunday after last night's excitement.

You know what would be a great tattoo? A red right hand. As in, entirely red. And cut off evenly around the wrist.

-- though I'm going to give myself five years and if I still want it then, it'll probably be a keeper.

But seriously. How cool would it be?

Fucking pain, though.

Yeah, I asked once about tattoing my foot, and the answer from the tattoo-artist is that the skin on the tops of your hands and feet is too thin to take ink well. "We can tattoo it, but it'll look like you got it in prison," were his words. Perhaps you could stick to henna instead? You can still get the dyed red hand, but it'll wear off in a few days.

Ho ho, Rich, I think you forgot the clitoris.

You could dye your hand red, alternatively. I have accidentally dyed mine green many times while doing my hair. And paint your nails shiny & red, of course. But it would be a v. original kind of tattoo. Nick Cave ftw!

I don't know, actually; I think just the hand without the nails would be more -- I don't know. Natural. If that can be called 'natural'. -- I shouldn't come drunk to a netcafe.

But yes. Nick Cave is amazing. He's more American than the Americans.

That's true, though: red hair dye might be very efficient for the purpose. Thanks for that.
