Tattoos, etc.
I'm finally creating a topic post for my "Tattoos, etc." category. (I considered calling it "Bod Mod" but I thought that might make me sound more hard core than I really am). So here are all the posts where I talk about tattoos and piercings; hopefully, I'll have more to add in future:

Agent Orange
Amazon.com is doing this thing called Amazon Theatre: Exclusive Short Films: "Every week for five weeks, beginning November 9, Amazon Theater will debut a new short film for your viewing pleasure." Last week's film, Portrait, was entertaining in an unoriginal, predictable sort of way. This week is Agent Orange, a psychedelic love story directed by Tony Scott (of Top Gun fame; apparently he's currently directing a script written by Richard Kelly who wrote and directed Donnie Darko!). Anyway, I definitely recommend checking out Agent Orange.
What I'm listening to right now: Miles Davis — Live at the Plugged Nickel.
I'm almost loathe to confess that I still have trouble appreciating this sort of deconstructionist jazz in a recording (I realize there's probably a proper term for it, but I'm not sure what it is... I don't think it's cool jazz; maybe modal music?). It's different when it's live... sort of like I can interpret the improvisations via the musicians themselves. But on a CD... I'm afraid I'm not feelin' it. Does that make me musically illiterate?
P.S. Another major upheaval in my life... another body modification (gee... I make it sound like I have so many
). Got my upper ear cartilage pierced today at Adorned (same place I went for my navel piercing). Just got a small captive bead ring. It stung a little bit more than the navel, but I really like the way it looks. It's probably a good thing that I only started this trend a couple of years ago, otherwise I might well be covered in tattoos and piercings by now. Wonder what the motivation will be for my next tattoo...

(but keep in mind, that my peak writing hours are between 11pm and 2am, so the night is early for me yet)
