I gotta google this now, I've never heard of Tom of Finland.

K, I pinterested it and I think my husband would totally not be down w/looking at a guy w/a big package on my arm or leg, I'm betting he'd like the girl better.

This is wonderful and I'm glad for you.

I don't know if this is tmi, but I went on a semi-blind date last night.
It went really well, and I had a blast, but since neither of us were looking for anything serious, we just kept it casual.
We ended up making out, which is terrible I know on the first date, but after it was all said and done, he told me I was more beautiful than I realized.
Which just about melted my heart, since some of you may know I've had serious problems with dudes in the past and my self image.
So, even though I won't end up dating him, I finally feel like I can go out and start seriously dating, without worrying and doubting my looks and self image.
I realized that I can be more than I think I am, and that I can be liked for just being myself.

That looks like the worst case of ringworm I've ever seen.

I've got to stop reading this thread for a little while. I've got a ridiculous stack of e-reads piling up on my kindle.

I got married yesterday. Does that count?

On Friday I got my oldest daughter a tattoo for her 34th birthday. She already had 2-3 smalls, but now she has a very nicely done side piece.

The family and I have been keeping an eye on mastiff rescues in Washington. We baby sat one for 2 months and we fell in love.

Seeing all the dogs (and ohhh those faces) made me start really missing ours again and looking them up on the internet, checking out rescues and such. That dog and I were at odds from day one and I still call her "that f-ing dog" but she was a good girl.

There's something about her hair...

Well...pissnshit I liked Dan and I liked hearing about his wife and dang dog. The other forum I belong too, the jewelry one, there's like...4 guys that post there on any sort of regular basis (as can be expected ha), and two of them are the most prolific posters, especially in the off-topic board. There is one thread that has about 400 pages (random thoughts), but mostly it's about as random as random can be. Pictures of the one guys little baby shrimps, then a thread of that guys dogs in costumes, then a thread asking if we women carry our purses all the time, then a thread of screen shots of the main off topic board for when the topic titles as you read down the screen are in a funny order...all from the same guy, and maybe in one day even. Now granted, there's a jillion people on that forum but still. I'm friends w/some of them off the board, and we have a G14 classified FB group, and I do consider some of them "real" friends--we even have another group just for our animals.
I think Dan is kinda like me. I'm a sharer, once I'm comfortable w/a group. Sharing doesn't bother me, it encourages camaraderie and helps a person feel like they belong. I have a hard time remembering that the internet is made of people I don't know.
And plus, I came back to the thread to specifically ask him about his dang dog dangit.

On a scale between 1 and Bear Mauling, how bad is your pain?

Tee hee.

Well just a quick update, I have sent my rough draft off to two different tat artists, one in Chicago which is supposed to be really good, and the other Joe Shit recommended to me in my area. I have to admit, the artist Joe recommended looks to be an absolutely fantastic artist.... So, I will see what these two gentlemen have to offer and I will pass along the input and hopefully a more refined rendition of my sketch. A big thanks goes out to Joe for all of his research and recommendations!!!! Thanks Bud!!!! And Semper Fi....

Wow, that is amazing! What a good girl to do that! And smart too, holy Hannah. She is cuter than cute, I can't get over how dang cute she is. My daughter is loving the pictures right now. Is wifey ok?

Hey now people, let's all calm down. There is nooooooo reason to use harsh language like "Bieber" in here.
We're all friends. Sheesh.

How big will it be/where is it going?

I googled the song, have never heard it. Would be nice to be able to fit a name on the tags, for sure. Or on the helmet-don't you guys put your first initial/last name on the front? Tried googling fallen soldier tattoo, but I just get all emotional sooo I clicked out.

I think it's a wonderful way to memorialize those you lost. Do you have an artist in mind? Maybe whoever could help finish it out for you?
My dad was a Marine in Vietnam, so I have a particular affinity for that branch of service.

If I drew this, I swear I would frame it.

Actually, I think this should be entered into the next contest. Despite @Pugilist's commandments, I'm bringing this image to my next appointment.
