I don’t really like going on about my tattoos, but this one IS special. Basically I am a Navy spouse, and didn’t really expect to make any *close* friends among the other spouses when I moved with the Husbot to Japan. I’m kind of a weirdo with anxiety problems! But I was happily proven wrong and I ended up meeting two wonderful ladies, one of whom was half-Mexican (like my husbot), and both of whom had grown up on the Southwest border. They were my best friends in Yokosuka, we vigorously explored Japan together with a growing number of Japanese girlfriends, and they taught me to make proper Mexican food at home, for which the husbot was grateful! A Sugar Skull Geisha seemed an apropo memento of that time.
