Since you know you were dying to see it…
Rachel: When Jacqueline announced that her brilliant daughter Ashlee had her favorite bar’s skull logo immortalized on her hand, my eyes rolled in my head like marbles, and I’m sure I wasn’t alone. Dare I say it was the eye roll heard round the world? As with all things Ashlee, I told myself that I wasn’t going to look it up. I mean that’s why she does these things in the first place – for attention. And I, woman of high integrity, was not going to give it to her. Until I did. There are some things you just can’t help… slowing at a car crash, eating more than one potato chip and giggling at stupid people’s mistakes. The last one being why the Internet exists – to permanently record all the dumb things we do for eternity and allow others to mock us for it. Well, for that and to buy shoes. And listen, I’m a little pot calling the kettle black here, as I am the proud owner of a not-very-well-done peace sign tattoo on my hip. And I was around the same age as Ashlee when I did it. The difference, however, is that I was smart enough to put it in a place that almost no one sees, not on my hand making that job interview handshake slightly awkward. But even Ashlee can get a clue sometimes – though I’m sure the clue was presented as a bribe by some family member – and is already in the process of getting it removed. Now about those lip injections…
