i'm gonna stay young until i die.

almost daily i get questions about the tattoo on my wrist. my responses very depending on my mood. anything from: "it's my favorite bar over by penn station. i'm going to get bennigans on my other wrist", to the real meaning. at least what it means to me.

my other tattoos are on my back. so i can forget about them. this one is in my face every day. sometimes i wonder why i got it there. other days i am glad i did. i don't regret it. yet!

it serves as a reminder that no matter how old i am, no matter how adult i have to be on a daily basis, i should be young at heart. when i'm 85 i don't think i'll disagree. at least i hope not...

postscript...
"will i still want to be  someone?
and not just sit around?
i don't want to be like other adults
cause they've already died
cool and condescending
fossilized."
