I could float here forever....

No matter whatever happens between me and the entire dating population of this world, they can't take away from me the immense pleasure and honor it was to meet my idol, Chino Moreno.

I have been a fan of Chino's band Deftones for years. I even like his side projects, Team Sleep and most notably now Crosses.

Through sheer dumb luck, I ran into him outside of the Glass House in Pomona before the Crosses show. I snapped a picture and got him to autograph my wrist....which I then promptly got tattooed. Heh.



Ack. I look fat.

The man is gorgeous, extremely gifted musically and is incredibly down to Earth. I need to find a soul mate like him.

Before I took the plunge and got the tattoo, I called several of my friends and fellow Deftones fans for insight. All of them, including Ryan, told me to go for it. I actually really like the way Ryan put it, when I felt a slight twinge of regret.

Me: speaking of which, my office mate and I agreed. i am now cholo-adjacent by getting a man's nickname tatted on my wrist.
Ryan: you got a man with talent and a purpose in lifes name on you. not some loser cholo.
