These are the Inks of Our Lives ...

ok, this was my first one .. got it no sooner then i turned 18 .. which explains why it's colorless now and as faded as it is .. maybe one day i'll have it touched up ..
he used to be all grey, white belly and other white details .. pink nose & in the ears, red tongue, blah blah blah ..
my friends had nicknamed me "thumper" at the time cuz they knew i liked to ... well, do what rabbits do .. i'll let ya imagination run wild w/that one <G> ..


.. this one i got in my early 20's .. originally, it was nothing but the deadybears .. then a few years later i went to have it touched up a bit, and the guy talked me into having the whole flower heart thing done up ..

.. the guy who did the original bears said the orange bibs were made w/a glow in the dark ink .. claimed he made it himself and it would glow under a black light .. ya, well, i tried it one day and i really didnt' see it .. i still don't really see it .. i mean ya, you can see 'em a little bit under a black light, but not to the extent i would have imagined from what he said ..

.. the reason i had one giving the rose to the other was becuz at the time i had made amends with myself .. i had reached the point where i quit beating myself up for bullshit beyond my control and went about my life ..

this is my kanji .. it means insane, or insanity ..

.. i think this one explains itself .. i've been locked up so many times i've lost track .. enough to be considered "legally insane" .. whatever the hell that's supposed to mean, made up by god only knows who ..

my sister was getting her first tattoo and didnt' want to go it alone .. i told her it's no big whoop, won't hurt, blah blah blah ..  but she still insisted i get one with her ..
.. ok, sure, why not ? i'm about due for something new anyway ( these things are sooooo addicting ! and of course, i have an addictive personality to match ) ..
it was really spur of the moment, i had no intention of getting ink when i went w/her to get hers done, but again, hey, why not ? only live once right ?

.. besides, it was late december, so i called it an xmas pressie to myself ..



these two coming up are 2 that i think i would like to have done one day .. not sure where or when, but who knows .. could be tomorrow for all ya know w/me ..

this last one, this is what i'm saving my back for .. if/when i get anything on my back, i want it to be my entire back, none of this here & there crap .. not for my back anyway ..

currently i'm trying to think of something original to get, i'm about due for another .. this one i want to be musically orientated .. notes are so common & blah .. i need something music based that 's more personal, more meaningful ..
.. suggestions ?
