Please explain why the people you love have to deal with....

Okay, so most of you by now know that I am involved with/living with/dating/what-have-you ciryatureseaelf (I know, she never updates. She claims she has nothing to say. Even though she can RP like a scary mofo ninja. I think she's letting her shyness get the better of her). And that both of our mothers have some issues with things.

Wanna hear something funny?

I still cover my tattoo with makeup when I go to visit my parents.

Which is a way of saying, *hugs* to both you guys. The sorts of things parents will inflict on their children never cease to amaze me.

My mom may not want me to get another tattoo, but at least she got one with me the first time. So she can't say anything about that. And now I think my dad wants one just because we both have one. Which is just cute.

*hugs* Thanks. It's really true; I have other friends who are undergoing other fun parent drama too, as I type. I guess I sort of assumed that once you were out of the house it might lighten up a little. It was very silly of me. >.<

Someday (preferably with a drink at hand), allow me to tell you the exact extent of parental drama that I dealt with during my twenties. It was amazing. I don't think family drama ever really goes away; I think you just get more practiced at dealing with it.

And yeah, deliberate use of Donna family icon is deliberate. ^_^

My cousin got a tattoo a few years back and, after showing it to his mom (and after she'd settled down), decided to inform his dad thus: "Dad, I've got a tattoo." *starts to pull down pants* *dad freaks* *pulls up pants" "Okay, no, actually, it's here." *shows tattoo on ankle* *dad does not spaz after all* I'd try that on mine, except I'm pretty sure they'd still lose their shit anyway.

Aaaahhhhhhhh. This is the problem with the interwebs. We should all be meeting in bars most of the time. X_X Yet another reason why I must make ComicCon next year.

Hoo boy. Noble-esque drama is not something that anyone should ever have to endure.

...I think that may be the best way to tell your parents about a tattoo ever. Are you sure they wouldn't see the humor in it?

Oh God. How fucking ridiculous. *hugs to both of you*

[use_theforce_em]

It really is. Thank you, though. *hugs*

[use_theforce_em]

Thanks. *hugs* This too shall pass. I think.
