There's nothing to fear but fear itself. There's nothing to fear but fear itself. There's nothing to fear but fear itself. There's nothing to fear but fear itself. There's nothing to fear but fear itself. There's nothing to fear but fear itself. There's nothing to fear but fear itself. There's nothing to fear but fear itself. There's nothing to fear but fear itself. Right?

Well, one of them.


say good-bye to to all those plans

Watch as they all get turned upside down. "The more we suspect that we are headed nowhere, the faster we need to run."

My brain's latest photo shoot.


say good-bye to comfort and hello to security

The things a good friend and a length of rope can lead to...

It's incredible how much I look like my father with this thing on.


say hello to my demise

say hello to my demise

In the same year I was in two movies. In one I was a stripper and the other a corpse. I am not sure what that says about me.


say hello to Lola

I never thought I would be able to say this, but I actually miss living with that damn dog.

say good-bye to sleep.

say good-bye to sleep.

This is my before picture. Before... Before I got tattooed. Before my dad cooked my grilled cheeses over a kerosene heater. Before my mom had to bolt my windows shut. Before I got that scar from that time.

Awesome awesome awesome. I think my next tattoo project might include some text. It will be amazing. How many other tatts do you have?

Thank you!

Counting each of them individually except for the pair of stars on my neck, fourteen. Five besides the one pictured involve text. Some of my inspiration comes from a friend of mine who has his whole right calf covered in phrases, numbers and words from books, poems, songs and wherever else he finds something meaningful.

Sooo…

Just to clarify…
You don't want forever just today… but rather… you want forever forever right?

lol. I realized there was some danger in electing not to use punctuation.

posted by miss understanding on October 23rd, 2007 11:04 PM

I don't want forever. Just today. I think I might have been able to use a semi-colon instead of a period after "forever", but proper punctuation is not my strong suit these days.

So you want… Just today; forever.

You are certainly a good person for devil's advocate, as well as semi-colon use.

Aww, thank you very much! I'll get around to posting more tattoo pictures one of these days...

So, when's the next tattoo project going to surface? Maybe we could share some ideas. I've had one brewing for almost a year now...

Actually I've been thinking that I want to get the move on with making an appointment for some ink sometime soon. I still need to settle on what I want to have done-I've come up with a few things as of late. I don't have many friends with much ink and would love to share ideas!

Yay! Message me with your idea!

Thank you. I like your script. So what is behind what you chose? (If I may inquire).

Kinda lengthy but a worthwhile read
posted by miss understanding on December 21st, 2007 2:54 PM

That's beautiful and rather moving. I always enjoy learning what is behind people's choices to modify their body in some way, just as I like earning the trust of someone enough for them to show me their scars.
