Think I would like to have a tatoo, something ethnic or celtic...but I'm a bit afraid of growing tired of it in a few years. The definitive aspect of the thing makes me hesitate. And what happen when your muscles beguin to ....hum, how do you say that....trickle ? I've never seen an old lady with tatoos...

I have a number of tattoos including a ram's head, a celtic wrist band, a viking, the lion rampant and the Canadian maple leaf. There is much room left on this canvas and eventually, the collage will be continued.
My body is a temple too, Dundee. Now let's decorate!
I chose 'thinking about it', but I've actually decided on it. I'm getting the Reeves COA with the Dragons head crest above, a banner with 'Animum Rege' (our moto 'ruly thy mind') above that, and a banner with 'Reeves' below everything. The plan was for my brothers, cousing Jason, and I to get it done while we're down for the wedding. But the budget doesn't allow for it this time. I'll have to wait until we move home, I guess.

I'm going to get a tattoo of the Clan Maxwell crest and motto some day on my upper arm.

Nope, nope, nope. Though, that probably isn't surprising..

I have a unicorn head over a rainbow on my back over the left shoulder. I would like to get pegasis on the other shoulder with the rainbow connecting them across my back. But, the money is not there right now.
I love tattoos. They are a beautiful art piece that I can carry around with me that has a meaning to me. I only have four. A celtic knot star on my foot, the taurus sign on my leg, a wolf on my back, and a four leaf clover on my wrist. Hopefully I will be getting another one soon I just have to decide what and where.

Year before last, my owner went to California for a month to visit. The day I picked her up at the airport, I applied a "fake" tatoo of a dagger and skull to my right forearm. It was VERY realistic. I let her notice it. She was quiet for rather a long time before she commented on it. She asked: "how long have you had THAT?". My response: " I got drunk one night......" I waited for 3-4 hours before I 'fessed up.

how bad does it hurt when you have a tatoo put on?
depends on where you have it. The ones on my shoulder baldes didnt hurt too much but the one on my spine killed me. the ones on my arms were no big deal and niether were the ones on my calfs..well. the one on my right calf hurt when they passed the shin bone. the ones on my ankles didnt hurt much either
I guess,in a nut shell, the more muscle you have in an area the less it will hurt(typically)

I am not partial to tatoos. However, my husband has one, my son has one, and my daughter (being the free spirit she is) has 3. So... you can see how much my opinion counts around here!
Oh, well...I love them anyway
