    I have 3....my first is marvin the martian in forefront with "thumb up", a cannon right behind him and the earth finally blowing up behind him on my lower back (tramp stamp area)...my second is a floating castle, with 3 dragons (one for each of my kids) flying around it and at the base of the castle is my husband and my names est 1993 (year we were married) on the outer right calf...my third is a hummingbird with vinework and flowers on the top of my left foot. The third is not finished yet...when I get to my goal weight I will have it finished. I am addicted and want more...hubby says I have enough...we'll see who wins this one =) LOL

    Never have, never will. Everytime I'm remotely tempted I think about what they will look like when I'm 80 and that turns me off.


    Think about what everything else will look like when you're 80. I doubt the appearance of your tattoos will be your biggest worry. ;) lol

    I used to have some but now I have scars instead. The scars are less ugly than the tattoos were. I have 2 that I want.


    What made you get rid of them? And what were they?

    They were ugly and horrible. Luckily, they were very small. A hangover from my misspent youth.

    I'm not really into tattoos. But I saw a burlesque show where a woman had a black line straight down the back of her legs, reminiscent of the seam in vintage stockings. I thought that was most elegant and understated. But I'm probably too chicken to get it done...


    Oh, that's hot!

    Don't have them. Don't want them. Don't understand people who have them (other than military or fraternal organizations - those I get). Not a hate thing- your body, your business. Seemed at first like a lot of folks were getting them to be non-conformist, but now that everyone has them, I realize that can't be be the case anymore 'cause that's the norm.

    There's a great theatrical monologue called the Tatoo lady - or something similar. I get that, too. If you have Tatoos and have never read it, I highly recommend it.

    Got 2, ankle and upper back. They both have specific personal meanings.

    Want more in various areas including lower back, neck, behind ear, forearm, side/s and or hips.

    I like piercings too but not sure what I can get away with yet at work beyond my nose ring....

    No sleeve, but a shoulder cap on one arm. I remind you of Kat Von D?! Well, she's pretty, but she's a total ***** in real life...but then again...so am I....so I guess that's a compliment?? I'll take it as one!

    I understand that some people don't get why people get them, but basically easiest way to think about it, Its art, you hang your paintings on your walls, I wear them on my body.

    Also all my piece have a reason and story behind them as do most people who are ink'd :)

    I did mean it as a compliment, I think she is gorgeous, although I dont know what is up with that bad wig(s) she had during her show lately....I don't know much else about her except that she was born in Mexico :) (i.m Mexican! lol)

    You have pics of your shoulder cap?
    I have one, a butterfly (how original, I know!) between my shoulder blades.....but I want more!! I would love a side piece, from below the armpit down to.....I dont know yet....hip, knee, ankle, maybe around my back!? It would all depend how far I can go with MFP lol
