My tattoos represent things that are signifigant to me..and I designed all of them myself.
(the rabbit is because I was born in the year of the rabbit...and I had cooincidentally just finished reading Watership Down...which I really liked....
The other two, of which there are photographs go without saying.
I can say that i am glad I have not gotten any frivolous tattoos thus far.
I don't know if I will ever get another one..it iwll all be dependant on whether or not I have a tattoo artist for a friend....as that was the case with the others...I will not shell out big bucks to be worked on by some stranger...

I've always wanted a Third Eye tattooed on my forehead, but I've been told it would make me unemployable. Shame, really.
No actual tats yet.
Still toying with the idea of getting my webname barcoded onto my upper back...... or getting a page of the Tao Te Ching in original Chinese tatted all the way down my back BIG style. Both would only involve black ink... so less fade, though my skin is rather stretchy so I'm not sure what effect that would have. |

It made me feel sorta brave.
My first one was done by a tattoo artist as payment for my nannying their kid.
It is a bunny on my leg, which I designed and then the guy redesigned it to make it look more cool and punkrock....
I had lived in their house..and I was the only person in their peer group who was not inked from head to toe.
Among those folk...there is some crazy life-style status-symbol stuff going on that is hard to understand.
My other two, I got years later on the same night, for my birthday. We happened to have a tattoo artist who was living with us at the time. I designed them myself...the ukulele tattoo on my arm, I had done about an hour after I designed it...it hardly hurt at all.
The winged sock monkey on my back was signifigantly more painful. |
Sorry to be off-topic, but YOU HAVE A UKULELE TATTOO?!?!?! I want to see pictures! |
ok...if you insist.....do you play the ukulele?...or just have a thing for ukulele tattoos?
Here is the winged sock monkey on my back.....which was alot more painful than the one on the fat outer part of my arm....
Both these pictures were taken while the tattoos were very fresh. |
Haha, thanks! I do play the uke, and I've been thinking of getting a music-related tattoo for awhile now. And as to placement, I heard someone say, "get a butterfly on your breast today, and in 20 years you have Mothra."

Another classic Willardism. Funny because it is true.
I have about 10 tattoos, the ones on my arms and back just turned into a numb burning sensation, the two on my chest hurt noticeably more especially the first one that I ever got. I kind of like how I can feel the texture of a relatively new tattoo that is freshly healed , under my skin. I am not a pain afficianado but pain is part of life so putting up with a little is worth it sometimes.  |
