Oh noes here I goes

[lathriel]

I am glad that I'm stubborn like a bull, because I made a rule for myself in high school that I must want a tattoo, unwaveringly, for at least 365 consecutive days before I am allowed to get it. And right now that rule is literally saving my skin. I'm going "tat" crazy.

-This year has been riddled with subconscious images of the silhouettes of birds, and also crows. Crows have been with me in one form or another for a long time (a white crow, specifically, came to me in a meditation once and blew my mind). And I think this image would make a nice tattoo. Or this one.

-I am hiring Laura to design my weird tattoo that's hard to describe.

-I can't decide if I want my "lotus mark" to be exactly like in my books, or slightly different. I don't want to claim the fictional birthright that goes with it, so that's why I'm thinking a variation would be better, more of an homage to My Books. Or is that waay to self-loving? Maybe I shouldn't even get the lotus mark. Hmm.

-And there is this stain on my ear on the cartilage from a cheap earring I wore in high school when it was healing, I was thinking about getting that covered with a little tattoo. Yeah, ouch.

Sigh. I has an addiction.

Your ideas for tattoos intrigue me. Right now I am deciding on a tattoo to cover up the mess my last artist made on the inside of my wrist. I really want to get a black cat with its tail twisted around a half moon. That really just resonates with me as I've shared a kinship with black cats and the moon. My birthday is on Halloween :-D

That sounds like an awesome tattoo! But I'm sorry there was a tattoo mess made :(

I still think it's the coolest thing ever that your birthday is Halloween...

I have a crow tattoo on my back. I got it done at Roadhouse Tattoos in Holland, NY.
