I had it done by Jess @ Revolver Tattoo. She does some amazing work and it was a pleasure sitting with her. She was very honest, and voiced some of her opinions as well when we started.

The design is of Scylla from Homer's Odyssey. In a nutshell, it symbolizes the hard choices I made in life, sometimes having to choose between the better of the worst.

I'm too lazy to take a photo right now but I have the word 'Hope' on my ankle and it looks similar to this:

At 63 I'm a bit to old to start getting a tattoo. The older you are the less you should show your body.:D

I saw this and thought this is the most dedicated Buffy fan ever.:eek:

Yo dawg, we heard you like fishing, so we tattoo'd you a fish so you can fish while you fish.

I had that tattoo done after landing three of these giants from 4am one morning till 11am.
A feat I never thought "I" would do in this life!

This one I got yesterday, my first tattoo ^-^

1181989095_6_ZwR8.jpeg


Wasn't nearly as painful as I was expecting, my kid sister used my own tattoo kit to do some lines on my leg (without ink off course) and it hurt like hell! But fortunately the guy who did this one KNEW what he was doing so the pain was minimal, it was like dragging one of those toothpicks across my skin, not too bad ^-^

Btw, this is just the start of my left arm sleeve, 3rd of February I have another appointment to start on the background and move down my forearm :>

Here's some of mine. Bear with me as I am a bad photographer in general and having to take pics of yourself isn't helping my cause.

Images left to right starting at the top left:
1) Couple of my fav piercings-Industrial, Daith (have on other side too...really unusual piercing type), and normal lobe. I have an Orbital that the Industrial goes through but I don't wear it much as taking it off and getting it in is a PITA and I take these things out 5 days a week
2) Aztec (supposedly) predatory fish
3) The White Rabbit in color
4) Griffin-my first tat and still my largest
5) Griffin shot 2

6) Yin and Yang and a design with the LEO insignia although apparently I am no longer a Leo...gr. It didn't heal right anyway so I need to get something done with it
7) An explanation as to why I had a White Rabbit inked on me

All have symbolic meaning but that's rather private. I have a few more which I really shouldn't post on here :eek:

I've been a member of this site since 2008 and I have never posted a message here. But I feel it is important to point out that I love this site. I've learned a lot. I've figured a lot out. And I've even come to appreciate my mac even more so because of this forum. I've just never been much poster. But I enjoy looking at pictures. Of other peoples computers, cars ect... and then I saw this thread!!!! So here are some of my tattoos! :D
