a million different people

Somedays I feel like it's hard to keep track of myself. I carry wardrobe changes like some kind of celebrity or super hero... yet it's nothing quite so glamorous. I do a little spin in the morning as ask Brian if any of my tattoos are "hanging out." Because sometimes I don't even know anymore ( Read more... )

tattoos, strange, the future, work

haha yeah my friends in the UK get confused cuz it'll I'll be on my way to bed and they are making breakfast.
Sometimes I feel bad cuz someone with tattoos will be near me and I unintentionally stare at them...not to be rude, but because i'm fascinated..I just love looking at all of them (if they are nice ones) is that weird? A girl came into my work a couple days ago and she had full sleeves and a dimple piercing and she was so adorable I wanted to squeeze her, and I felt bad cuz she noticed me looking at her.
I'm just jealous cuz I don't have it in m to get tattooed like that even though I love it. I can't even decide one ONE! nothing ever makes me think "i want that on my body forever"

people stare at my husband and I a lot, it's not weird after they finally say "I like your tattoos" or something, but until then I never know if it's disaproving stare or not haha.

When I see people with a lot of tattoos, I tend to stare. Sometimes I'll ask who did a piece or if I can get a better look. Or some artists I will just recognize their work right off and say "Oh so and so must have done that!"

I want to get something related to my astrological sign tattooed, because my daughter and i share the same sign (Pisces) but they are all so lame, and I lack creativity in designing my own. the only thing I've ever found that I would consider would be something like this. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=5635131&l=adb0d40a2d&id=504520233 but I dunno. and than I'm paranoid that I'll get an artist that will suck, so many people i know have gotten a tattoo and are like "look what i got on the weekend!" and I'm like ummm...great did your kid draw that?

I HAVE NO FRIENDS IN THE UK. MY LIFE IS SAD.

Dude, I do the same thing. Always long sleeves and pants... even though I have tattoos behind my ears and my monroe that's out all the time, I feel like I get treated differently when I'm covered up or just with my sleeves rolled up vs. when I'm wearing short sleeves.

Sometimes, I get people that come up to me and ask about my tattoos, that touch my arms and pull them in to get a closer look. I have a bit of a minor freakout each time, but when they ask questions and stuff like that I feel awesome.

There's something to putting my story on my skin... and I'm sure you deal with the saaame stuff I do. :)

Awww...

I love tattoos, even though I don't have any and it's not that I don't want them, It's that I'm broke. I tend to stare. Not in a gawking, "OMG YOUZ IZ SCARYZ!" , kind of way but in admiration.

Most people should except tattoos, since a amount of people have them, usually hidden though. Piercings are more frowned upon, My mom almost had a heart attack when she saw my nose, and she doesn't know I'm planning on getting the other side done, she'll probably kill me.

True story (and I don't mean to butt in on your comment), but when I got my septum pierced, I walked in and told my mother covering my face because I was that convinced that she was going to punch me.

She didn't.

i've only had my septum re-pierced since thursday, and i already feel the urge to flip it up sometimes just because i'm in public.....
it didn't help that the other night at kroger, while sam and i were walking down an aisle some old man seriously GAWKED at us.
i was actually thinking of a LJ post similar to this, because i know eventually some of my family who haven't seen it yet will have to, and i cringe thinking about it.
but why woudln't i want them to see it? it's who i am....

oh, and thinking about knowing you and not knowing that you have as many tattoos as you do just seems so odd to me....

I know! I always go on about how everyone should be who they are and not feel uncomfortable about it, but I guess sometimes it's easier to hide. I love my piercing and my tattoos! But I hate when people can't see past them...

And yeah, I think it's pretty odd too haha. I think that's why the guy I ran into from work the other day went into some kind of shock lol
