That moment when you keep hearing a soprano velociraptor playing one-sided Marco Polo out in the hallway and realize, oh, no, it’s just the Velcro cat wailing pitifully because you locked him out of the office. Woozle. Because of course, it’s Woozle. Never mind that I locked him out because I have cramps, a headache, and writer’s block, and I don’t feel up to fending off his usual shenanigans. By Shenanigans, I mean shaking slobber everywhere, whining, trying to insinuate his fat butt between the desk and my rack, and trying to scale Mount Mom’s-Desk and causing a landslide. Kid, Mama needs to work! Stay in your box!

So the question sorta points out the whole thing. I’ve been thinking about the idea of a tramp stamp tattoo but I’m wondering where does it actually go? I don’t know that much about tattoos and don’t have anything myself. My understanding is that it usually goes on the lower back. But if it goes elsewhere on the body, is it not a tramp stamp? I have a character who is focused on certain parts of the body and I’m wondering if the tramp stamp is on a particular body part, is it still a tramp stamp?

Hi GhostOfCovid, I'm about 2/3 of the way through the next chapter. I've been very time poor lately and probably won't have time to do anything this week, but I've got some days off next week where I'll try to get it finished.

Le sigh.

Good news, day 2: Even though there’s a lot of talk about shoplifting these days, it’s less common now than it was before the pandemic. Is Shoplifting Really Surging?

There’s a lot of bad news out there these days. So I’ve decided that every day for the next week, I’ll post one piece of good news. To decrease summer heat and improve air quality, New York City’s city council has decided to up NYC’s tree canopy coverage from 22% to 30%. A lidar-based mapping system will be used to identify places where the new trees would do the most good. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/nov/30/new-york-city-tree-planting-lidar-mapping
