Bored with my own bad self...
I have the unaccountable urge to dye my hair red. Actually, a nice auburn. This came over me suddenly last week and the thought is still in my head. I don't really know WHY, except I'm bored, I guess
( Read more... )
And I'm with you -- I wouldn't choose something that didn't have a deep personal meaning to me. Except... hmm, well, on occasion I've considered purely decorative things (like ankle bands or armbands). But I think that's an area where I admire the aesthetic on others more than I think it would work on myself.
I realize that part of the idea (far as I can tell, anyway) is that you put it in a place where you aren't necessarily looking at it every day, and therefore that helps with not getting tired of it. Except I have this mental disconnect -- while I understand that theory, I also can't see the point of getting a tattoo in a place where I would never see it, or would need a mirror to see it, or whatever. I'd really need to figure out a place that I *could* see but didn't see *often*, or whatever...
The closest I've probably come to finding a design that has meaning and that I think I'd like long-term is the little orca I use for my LJ icon... but then there's still the "where?" question.
And then there's the fact that I'm very, very lazy.
