What does that mean?

I am still toying with the exact design of my next Tat.. BUt it will include this only a different color.

my buddy Ryan made some great designs for my new softball team and incorporated the chinese character for "dragons"... it's so cool... it and my astrological sign may be my next two tats...then, after that, my beluga/infinity *and* my JRT tats will follow...

That, my dear, is the chinese symbol for Chi.

I'm thinking on my shoulder.

*sigh* Hmm-hmm from at the hmm-hmm on Monday night was going to get a Chinese dragon fighting a Western dragon on his back. *sigh*

I've never really wanted to get a tatoo before because I couldn't think of anything that meant so much to me that I'd want it permanently on my body; plus I'm terrified of needles; plus I'd be worried that with my constant weight fluctuation, it would look ridiculous.

But I always vowed if I won an Oscar, Tony or Emmy, I would get a tatoo of the drama masks somewhere.

bro (DD).. yes... but that isn't the pic of our tats that I was thinking you knew the photog of.. remember you, I and Fahrvegnuegel all had pics taken of the three tats side by side (with no faces)?

who took that pic (and I take it, it's YOURs, eh?)

it's not as vivid (ahem) as mine :)

dance on!

Tiff oddly enough I am terrified of needles.. How I manage to besmirch my body with so many piercings and soon to be several tattoos.. It's crazy really

How ARE you able to? If I thought I could get past the needles, I would probably be more receptive to the whole idea.

that's the weird part I really dont know.. Well my tattoo is very symbolic to me and has great meaning as would the second one I intend to get.. It was funny cuz when I got it the artist kept asking me if I was alright. I kept saying yeah and finally asked why he kept asking.. I guess I was so freaking still that it was odd.. I may as well have been a statue or soemthing. part of the reason I dont have the second one yet is I'm scared to death of it and I know it's gonna hurt like a MoFo. A band around my ankle with the faerie I posted sitting on it. Can we say ouch? Also unlike my first one I would actually be able to see the artist doing it.. **cries**

As for the piercings..... yeah I'm not sure.. I think I have the moments of being an alternate personality or something.. Trust me I'm scared to death when I do it, and always close my eyes.. When I did my nose the piercer kind of laughed when I told her how deathly afraid of needles I am.

There was this one time when I was in high school and I was having some medical problems (imagine that). And they wanted to do bloodwork on me.. I turned into the biggest screaming little girl known to man.. I actually tried to bite my dad, because they had to hold me down..

I'm so ashamed.

LOL! I'm the same way - I had to get blood tests for allergies a couple of years ago, and even those shallow pokes on my forearm had me tearing up and hyperventilating.

Hmm...maybe I'd get a Tinkerbell tatoo. I do love Tinkerbell (and not in a shallow Paris Hilton sort of way).

Who am I kidding, I'm all talk. I'd dissolve into tears at the sign of the needles.

me too Tiff.. and I scream and flail then I usually pass out..

Needles and me is NEVER pretty..

ETA: Last time I went to the doctor he wanted to do some blood work, lets just say that the slip is still in my car and that appointment was over a year ago..

Tiff... I always felt the same way you did. I always figured there was nothing that meant enough for me that I'd want it on my body for the rest of my life.

Then came the brothers, and it just seemed so right to get it. It's truly a meaningful tat for me (not only because he's here) but the three of us, even though one is semi-estranged, truly have a strong bond, and that tat is a reminder of our friendship, and that great first summer we all knew each other.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, don't push it. When you REALLY want a tat, you will know. And then you won't care about the needles.

*wipes tear* That was beautiful, DD! And you're probably right. It's not something I'm planning on rushing - I'm in no hurry to be under a series of needles anytime soon, so I'd REALLY need to find an event so meaningful that I'd be willing to go through that horror!

Cam, I'm not in that much of a position to get on your case - I've got the last of my triple-helix-whatchamacallit preventative Hep shots coming up next month and I've been holding off from making my appointment for weeks now! (Then again, I have until the end of March to do it, and your lungs are hurting NOW, so...)

From someone who gets poked every 3 months, and has been for the past 13 years, and is still squeamish (sp) about it, I feel no sympathy for putting off going to the dr.

[Type_A_Tiff]

Posted: 2/17/06 at 2:00pm

Yeah, Cam. That was aimed at you.

[DayDreamer]

Posted: 2/17/06 at 2:09pm

And you miss is afraid to make the appt to get her last hep vac shot...

[FidoRock]

Posted: 2/17/06 at 7:57pm

yea, nothing like a skilled phlebotomist to gain my respect :)

[DayDreamer]

Posted: 2/17/06 at 8:38pm

Amen to that!

[Type_A_Tiff]

Posted: 2/17/06 at 8:41pm

'kay, but I've got 6 weeks to get it done. And I work...(sometimes).

So I'm not TOTALLY a weenie.

[DayDreamer]

Posted: 2/17/06 at 8:45pm

So am I forgiven?

[DayDreamer]

Posted: 2/17/06 at 8:47pm

An Undi visit! Yay!

LOL! Out of context, it sounds kind'a sad, actually. :-p

"From someone who gets poked every 3 months" why did that just make me giggle?

Dammit, Undi. I was seriously thinking that, and went, ohh...would that sound insensitive?

But since you said it, I'll admit. I giggled a lot too.

And DD - NO! Why would you be? *hmph*
