New tattoo

Ah, the long weekend is almost over. Long, long weekend actually, as I took Friday off as well. After a full week of meetings and union negotiations, a friday off was very welcome! But it's been a pretty quiet weekend. I had the opportunity to go and drink my face off on a patio, but declined as it's too much of a temptation on this diet. If I'm going to follow this diet fully, even one beer is too much of a temptation. I'm not sure what I'll do at Scott's cottage next weekend, but since it is my birthday weekend, I'm going to allow myself one or two drinks. :)

I stopped in at Planet Ink on Saturday and got the rest of my right arm tattoo finished - a set of Buddha eyes above the Tibetan script. Looks awesome! Hurts like a bitch though. All the colour meant alot of filling in and thus scraping back and forth across the skin. It's fantastic though.

I'll try and take a better photo of it when I can - it's hard to take a photo of your own arm! I was going to get it on the back of my neck, but I want to save that space for the sak-yant when I'm in Thailand.

Sitting around today, reading a book of travel stories from Thailand. This afternoon I'm going to go to Camp Fortune and do some hill running with the dog. Figured I should add some hills and interval training into my running schedule as long, slow distance running is only going to do so much good for Muay Thai training.
