It's not the mark or the scar that makes you run and run and run

Hai, now for something completely different - moar tattoo talk! *beams*

Firstly, I'd like advice on the healing process - I've seen all KINDS of conflicting recommendations online. My place told me to keep the tattoo covered with a cling film (saran wrap) bandage for the first three days. Other instructions have said not to cover it at all. The cling film is obnoxious, so can I skip that? Advice plz!

Secondly, has Gerard drawn any of Frankie's tattoos???? This was just an idle dream of mine, but then sofiaviolet said she'd seen mention that he HAD, and now I want details! Does anyone know?? Halp! They're already killing me with the OTPness by being the sparrows on Frank's tummy, but Gee being the artist behind some of Frank's work would just killl me completely dead, bwee. I love them ridiculous amounts.

Thirdly, I called my daddy tonight, and I told him I got my tattoo. His reaction was basically "Oooh!" Do I even need to tell you that I love my dad anymore? Well, I don't care - I love my dad :D

Fourthly, some glorious LOTMS caps! Some involving tattoos, most just involving cuteness. I do have plans in the future for some large LOTMS spam, because there's so many random moments of adorableness that I've never seen caps floating around for, but it is almost 3 AM. Therefore this is not that night.

( Instead, have half-nakie Frankie, bouncy Mikey, and clappy Bob and Ray, and snuggly MCR! )

SIGH SIGH. Goodnight <333

Nothing you can say can stop me going home

I just reached 30,000 plays on my last.fm. O.O

Whee! *throws confetti*

(And that's just since August 2006, which is when I get this laptop. It blows my mind when I realize how much of my life I spend listening to music. That's approximately 70 days straight of music! Over two months out of 18! Geez.)

My thirty thousandth song was Innocent and Sweet by The Cab. I meant to make it my favorite MCR song, but my attention wandered and I didn't catch it in time, whoops. Instead Heaven Help Us was my 30,001st song! :)

In the music vein, I've downloaded so so much new music over the past weeks or so, and it's kind of overwhelming! In order to really get into something and make an opinion on it, I have to listen to it REPEATEDLY, because I never *just* sit and listen to music, I'm always always doing something else, so it takes a lot of repeats for anything to really sink in. I'm afraid I won't be able to give everything it's due consideration.

For curiosity's sake, the new music I've downloaded/received includes:

Incubus - A Crow Left of the Murder (LOVE this, so far)
The Frames - The Cost
Say Anything - In Defense of the Genre and Is A Boy/Was A Boy (Courtesy of my brother, who totally has a crush on Max Bemis. Enjoyable, though probably not going to become a favorite.)
Jimmy Eat World - Chase This Light (Again, enjoyable, but not very different from their other stuff. I do like their sound though.)
The Once soundtrack
Tom McRae - Tom McRae (Ugh, I love him SOMUCH. I'm so glad I got to see him live.)
Thursday - Full Collapse
The Cab - Glitz and Glamour

See? I'm so overwhelmed! *flails a little* I just keep coming back to MCR. *shameface* The only band that has managed to insinuate itself significantly in my listening patterns is The Used, and even then I only listen to them on shuffle in a playlist with all of MCR's stuff. MAYBE I'M OBSESSED? WHO KNOWS.

(I enjoy this mood icon. *stares*)
