weekender

this weekend was a busy one! joe and i rode our bikes to the east bay (we barted across the bay, of course) and i got tattooed by the magnificent je'. i have been wanting this candy conversation heart piece for years. originally i wanted it to say "u r cute" but "be kind" feels more timeless, and also, it's a good message. je' did another candy tattoo for me for my birthday a couple years back so it seemed only fitting for her to this one. i think it turned out really great. i love the shading and color, especially the blue-green outline. it was a quick job - 49 minutes, we know because i timed it!

 

i returned to the city and met up with lindsay and cathleen for some dancing. we saw yelle at the mezzanine. her music is so fresh and fun. and french! i have no clue what she's saying but the songs put me in the best mood.

on sunday i was treated by devan to an amazing brunch at prospect. and then i treated her to the movie like crazy. the movie is very good but definitely depressing. i was wiping tiny tears away throughout. i think it's a must-see.

on our way we stumbled upon this statue that i really loved. i did a little research and it turns out these bronze statues are all over the country. made by artist j. seward johnson the statues are just ordinary people doing ordinary things. i really love this one.
