A New Inkling
Tattoo change. Rachel and I are no longer going with the grapes design. We have each chosen different designs, but they share a common element: the infinity symbol. Here’s what I decided on for my tattoo:
I like this better than the grapes. I love trees. Trees have a lot of symbolism and traits that I like.
They are green and full of life
They go through seasons
They bring joy
They protect
They are grounded
They produce fruit
They enhance the lives of others
They are host to other forms of life
I think a tree is a pretty good symbol of friendship. Besides that, my favorite color is green. And a tree isn’t something you’d have huge regrets about later (unlike a fiery skull and caption that says “Head on, apply directly to the forehead”.)
You can go here to see the tattoo design that Rachel’s getting.
Hopefully Rachel and I will be able to get our tattoos tomorrow. I’ll definitely post pictures!

Were you able to find anyone with a twenty year old green tattoo?
Are you still going to put this on your ankle?

The good thing about getting a tattoo where we are going is that they will re-color it for free if it fades.

What about the words from the original design? They were kind of cool. Are those definitely out?

Um, that sorta looks like Dolly Parton hiding her face behind a tree branch.
Which reminds me of a joke.
A psychiatrist is doing a Rorshach test with a new referral.
Of the 1st ink blot, the patient says “that’s a man and a woman making love.”
Of the 2nd, he says “that’s a Roman orgy.”
Of the 3rd he says “that’s a disgusting act of bestiality.”
The pshrink says “You have the worst case of sexual obsession I’ve ever encountered.”
The patient replies, indignantly, “Me?! You’re the one with all the dirty pictures!”
