These beautiful sleeves enjoying the beach are by Vincent Hocquet at Beautiful Freak in St. Idesbald, Belgium. Anyway, I hope today’s updates are alright — I think I’m on day five of basically no sleep, and yesterday my doctor upped a bunch of stuff to try and help me sleep, but all it’s done so far is make me feel dopey during the day, ha… grr… I’d much rather be hanging out on the beach with this guy.

Fantastic. I would have to say that I cannot immediately think of any tattoos that I like better than those ones. Absolutely beautiful. I dream of having equally awesome tattoos.

Hey Shannon– I’m on some interesting meds for bipolar disorder, and I’ve found that when I take them is directly related to how I feel/how tired I am/how well I sleep. I currently take two at night and one in the morning. Works out pretty darn well. Sorry for being OT, just thought I’d comment in case you hadn’t tried it yet.
