Lil Red Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 but first, i have to pick a design, and where to put it. i'm thinking a small celtic cross or rosary on the inside of my wrist. then, once i have the design, i'll sit on it for a few months, to make sure i still like it. so it'll be awhile yet before i get it.
theculturewarrior Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 I've always wanted a tatoo. In old english characters... "Nigra sum, sed formosa." :wub:
theculturewarrior Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 It's from the Song of Songs. "I am black but beautiful."
toledo_jesus Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 whatever you do, don't get a zodiac symbol on you...Catholicism's not down with the astrology.
Lil Red Posted August 2, 2004 Author Posted August 2, 2004 of course i wouldn't! i stay away from that carp. (and no, i don't mean the fish! )
toledo_jesus Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 wish I had been orthodox back when I got ink...
Lil Red Posted August 2, 2004 Author Posted August 2, 2004 what do you have? would it be possible to cover it up? that's how a lot of people switch/get rid of ink that they aren't happy with.
Carrie Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 go for it red. I have one and would love another but I need more time to think about it.
Lil Red Posted August 2, 2004 Author Posted August 2, 2004 thanks, carrie. no, i don't like any fish, tony!

Lil Red Posted August 2, 2004 Author Posted August 2, 2004 i'd like to get something religious, like a celtic cross, a rosary, or something like that.
DancesforLove Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 Thats a good idea to sit on the idea for a little. It sounds like a pretty cool tatoo
Lil Red Posted August 2, 2004 Author Posted August 2, 2004 thanks! and, yeah, all my tattoos i have waited to get them. that way, if you don't like it in 3 months, how are you gonna stand it for the rest of your life?
toledo_jesus Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 I have the symbol for Capricorn on my shoulderblade. It's kind of medieval looking. I wish I hadn't gotten it, and here's why. A friend of mine once made the point to me that the body is a temple. So I kind of view a tattoo as grafitti. Interestingly, I believe there are some Rites that still practice ceremonial tattooing...don't ask me who they are though If I was gonna get one now, I would get a Latin motto somewhere. Probably, "If it's not broke, don't fix it"
Lil Red Posted August 2, 2004 Author Posted August 2, 2004 have you tried checking with any tattoo artist to see if there is anyway of getting it covered over?
DancesforLove Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 very true! thats so much better than going and getting one on some spur of the moment thing because then you end up sobering up and not wanting it lol
Lil Red Posted August 2, 2004 Author Posted August 2, 2004 actually, if you go to a reputable artist, they will kick you to the curb if you come to get a tattoo high or drunk
