There's already some seriously stiff competition, but here's my entry for this month. Done yesterday by El Monga.

I'd planned to start working on ideas to connect my arms across my back and then be done for a while and now after looking at pics in the gallery and shop websites I'm trying to think of something to go around my ankles, around the other stuff I have there.
Bad influences, the lot 'a'ya.

I don't get it either. It's too much like "I can do it and it's ok, but you can't do it b/c I say so" and that irritates me.
Of course, I was just showing my husband pictures on flowers I like (traditional/English roses) and there was much wrinkling of the nose and "I'll be married to an old sailor, AYE matey, ahoy" butthead. It makes me give the pictures an eyebrow raise, wondering if there's something wrong w/my taste but dangit, they're pretty so he can stick it.

Woo hoo for girls in the gym! I like looking at my tattoos when I'm working arms...they look so sexaaaay.

I got my first a couple days after I turned 18. I told my mom I was getting it-she didn't believe me. I told her I would be late coming home b/c it was an hour drive and my friend and I were the last appts of the night. She "uh huh, yeah, ok" 'd me, still not believing me. Came home later, she said "where have you been? It's past curfew" Um..have I not been telling you all week I was getting a tattoo, hello? She was so stunned she didn't say much after that. Dad did the whole "ohhh GAWWWD you're going to regreeeeet this foreeeeeeever" drama speech.

My brother has a few tattoos and has talked about getting more, however he doesn't like when women have several, or big pieces. My husband has several, plans for more, and likes them on women, lucky for him, since I'd get them regardless. Some of what I am tossing around in my head for my next things he doesn't care for, so it's hard for him to discuss them w/me, but he'll still have to look at them when they're on me so ha!

What I had on my feet before was done in 2005 and they didn't turn out anything like I'd planned. I was up getting some other work done and asked the artist about my feet. He said he could cover them and that a modified peony would work well, in glowy colors. I had it done a week ago yesterday. The picture is from right after it was done, so there's some nice swelling...not near as super duper nice as by the time I got home. Big ole Bam Bam feet by then! It took 4 hours. Sucked. My husband insists I'm the tattoo beast tho for sitting thru it, reading my book and playing on the internet, so that makes me feel tough haha!
