possible tatoo?

Jan 30, 2006 02:21


I swear I have insomnia.   Today I worked with the worse head cold for 8 and a half hours, it was most unpleasant.  I am thinking about getting a tattoo but not sure were, maybe on the upper arm, or on my chest somewhere, any suggestions?  here are some of the things I am pondering on to get...



one would be a white shield with a red hand on it,my family crest,  now there is a huge story behind it and it is quite interesting but I will only share it with a person who asks.  Underneath the sheild will be "Ó Duibheannaigh "  which is my last name in its unmolested, Celtic form.

another Idea maybe something like this...



or what I like better...



those two pictures come from an ancient norse tale about a valkyrie who disobeys the gods and lets one man live who is meant to die, for punishment she is made mortal and put into deep sleep by the kiss of Oden, and she must marry any man who wakes her up, now Oden of course being the kind-hearted one he was made sure the place she slept in was guarded by towers and walls of burning flame so that only the man that was truly meant for her could reach her.

or I might get this...



That is a valkyrie from norse myth carrying a fallen warrior up to Valhalla, the heaven of warriors.

or  might just get a silhouette of a raven on one arm and the silhouette of a wolf on the other (both my sacred animals, as well they represent two strong parts of my soul ).
