Half hour outside of College Station.

I spent 8 (miserable) weeks in Rockdale Texas. College Station was fun when I went there though.

I found the best. laundromat. ever. in College Station ;)

I haven't seen any of this season, but I was planning to watch the Tony Hundahl episode if I get a chance.

Howdy!! Whereabouts in Texas?

I get a lot of "I never would've guessed you have tattoos!" often followed by something along the lines of "but you look so nice!!"

Ah what, the hell, I'll give this a try this month. This was done by Thomas Hooper in five sessions between October 2012 and June 2013, mostly at Saved but with one session at the Rochester Convention:

OMG @Graeme !!

The bits and pieces I've seen so far don't do it justice!!!

Stunning!!

How can you stand to ever wear a shirt?!?!

Congratulations @Dennis !! Fantastic!!

I just go for whichever blank spot is making me the most crazy right then ;)

I'm in Oregon y'all!!! :D

I left Oklahoma a week ago, made it almost to the Colorado state line and ran into some car trouble...

I ended up stranded for 4 days waiting for parts to come in, but then managed to drive 24 hours over two days and made it into Oregon late last night.

I'm so thrilled to be back this way, it's been a long 3 years in the bible belt.

West Coast-Best Coast!!! :D

There's no way I could pick just one.

I've had such a great time with each of my tattoos... and I plan to continue that trend!! Seeing the way different people approach things, watching them figure it out, watching them apply it... that's part of the fun!!!

I'm with @hogg here, I just can't even try to play this game.

We have a new @else.

Hey!! And here I thought I would break the land-speed record without a fight!!

Got this Grimm tiger yesterday from Fergus Simms. Here is a pic of the three thigh tattoos I have off him so far taken after the appointment. Safe to say I am very happy with all of it.

That Grimm tiger is on my "want" list :)

Tattoos hurt though!

But it's only for a little while, and then you've got something AWESOME for the rest of your life!!

@Graeme and I are supposed to get impulsive tattoos this afternoon (from the shop around the corner from our old place, as a way of celebrating our time there!). I think he's going to wuss out. Peer pressure him here!

C'mon @Graeme !! All the cool kids are doing it!!!

Yea I'm silly I decided to fill my legs before anything.

I guess we're both silly! :p

hi gene ;)

I got married yesterday. Does that count?

Congratulations!!!!

Ha! Thanks, Hogg. It really was awesome. We are heading to Chicago this summer for a honeymoon just in time to stop by and see the new Great Lakes shop and hopefully get a new tattoo there to celebrate.

Now THAT's a honeymoon!!! ;)

For the average folk who don't have any I guess even one can toss you into that category. I know my last tattoo seems to have crossed some imaginary borders in the minds of people I know. As far as most of the people I know I am now considered 'heavily tattooed' which makes me laugh since I look at a ton of open room. Take it in stride.

getting my knees done is what put me over that line as far as I can tell.

Even people who knew ahead of time about my plans for leg tattoos seemed shocked when I got the knees done.

If it were me, I might leave the words off entirely and just go with the image.

*You* know what the image represents to you. It will hold the same meaning whether the words are written on you or not.

And that way you won't have to deal with strangers inches away from your skin reading it all the time... that would freak me out.

Here it is, my naked self on a cold winters night...finished and healed pics of my back by Dean Sacred.

I don't have words...

Hell yes. After all, this is all just tattoo porn. May as well have some ass in it, too. :cool:

May as well!!! ;)

I wonder if you wouldn't have better luck contacting the ink makers directly?

putting this here because there were all those "parent-child" tattoo days posts recently and I don't know where else this would fit.

My daughter's 18th birthday is coming up - we were having lunch the other day and I asked her what she wanted for her birthday and she hemmed and hawed a little bit but eventually says "well, since you're all into tattoos, I was kinda hoping you'd pay for a tattoo for me".

Awww! Kinda sweet right?

Honestly though, I'm a little bit on the fence about it. What she really needs is money. She's not working right now... she's flat broke and living on ramen noodles and canned green beans...

(when I asked her what she wanted I was sure "money" would be her answer)

Hmmm...

I'm thinking on it...

Not sure yet what I'll do.

My Sweet Pea decided to be responsible, so instead of buying her a tattoo I paid her rent for July and bought her a bunch of groceries (and a couple things to unwrap of course!!)

BUT!! Total win!! She decided that she wants to wait until she gets back to Denver to get her first tattoo so that she can have Marie Sena do it :D

Hooray!!
