I love a good tattoo, but don't have any and I suspect I've outgrown the age of getting them. If I *had* gotten one back when I was interested in it, I undoubtedly would have gone with something Celtic, and it undoubtedly would now feel like some vestige of a past me, the same way my earing holes mark a past version of me.
But that's why the older you are, the better it is! You won't end up with something you're embarassed of in 10 years.
I don't know about precise image, but I'm thinking something Sailor Jerry style (bluebirds? heart? cards? dunno) on the right side of my lower back/hip, possibly straddling the top of my pants, if you see what I mean.
That's where I have my Daisy. Not terribly painful either unless it gets a little close to your spine.
Can you see it, Daisy? That's my only concern -- I don't want something I can never see.
My second one is pretty much on my spine, and it hurt a lot more than I remember the other one hurting.
Burrell, you are SO not past the age of getting one.
I don't want something I can never see.
Bah. There's nothing wrong with having a tattoo you can't see without the aid of a mirror.
What designs do people have on their checks? I just ordered new checks for the first time in forever. I used to have ancient map looking ones, but this time I got beach scenes. It was either that or kitties or Art Deco/20's designs based on Erte.
Yesterday someone said to me, "So I heard that your book is a collection of anti-UN essays."
How in the hell did they get that?
I see it when I'm in the shower, or I see it getting dressed sometimes, but I'm also not staring at it so much I'm sick of the sight of it, or that I notice little flaws.
Bah. There's nothing wrong with having a tattoo you can't see without the aid of a mirror.
Oh, I know -- it's kind of just that I need some way to decide what and where! My last concept was a big swirly thing for between my shoulder blades.
Allyson, you should totally promote your anti-UN book on Star Search! That would rock.
I have three: one on each shoulder blade, and one on the lower back, almost at my butt crack. You can see the shoulder ones easy when I am wearing and tank, but the back one, only in my undies or swimsuit.
I want another. They are addictive.
