pineapples

It has been so nice having my brother visiting me for the last 2 months. we have had a great time together.

working in the studio with deb and enjoying some well earned beers at the end of the day

visiting with friends and enjoying the sunny winter weather we have been having

and maybe best of all - just hanging out together at home, watching tv, making dinners, with no plans at all.

one other fun thing we did together was to get sibling tattoos.

we had discussed this idea when i was visiting him in montreal last year, but it never happened

but since we had a bit more time this visit, we booked in and got them done

we went to meet our tattoo artist with a few random ideas, and then settled on one. she drew it up and a few days later we were there getting the tattoos.

yup, matching pineapple tattoos. a bit silly, but hey why not? the style matches with the random collection of tattoos that adam already has. i haven't had had a new tattoo in almost 10 years, and i was happy to get a simple black tattoo with adam. for me tattoos are less about the image and more about marking a moment in time, and for me this is the time adam came and lived with me in adelaide for 2 months.

 

i miss him heaps. we had a great time, and i have a great brother. i cant wait for the next time we are hanging out, having a beer and talking about the next road trip to take together.
