So this week is the one year anniversary of my quitting my job and trying to make a go of it at poker, (not on purpose...I quit my job first, and had to do something, anything actually, to pay some bills) and coincidentally I was at a bar tonight getting deep in the cups (OK, that was no coincidence...that is what I do).
At the bar there are a bunch of rocker types, with arms full of tattoos, most with some form of aces or queens, and I said to my friend, who happens to be a tattoo artist, "I've bluffed for more money with crap than those fools will ever win with those aces on their arms"
Ideas are flopped around, I tried to think of something that both made me laugh and probably has never been done,and the next thing we know, Im getting the outline done. A 2 of hearts (for the girl who had faith in me) and a 7 of fleur de li's (for the city that made me) with a messy pile of chips in front of them.
It's on the inside of my arm, so can not be seen, and to me looks pretty damn allright.
Maybe I'm an idiot, though. And the girl who inspired the 2 of hearts, she's still in Australia, so she can neither laugh at me or be impressed.
