the harmless (age 18). the original plan when i got this was to get a heart on each side. but after the guy finished i looked in the mirror and thought, hmmm this is a tattoo on my chest. maybe i should just go for the one and see how i like it. thank god cause otherwise i would look like a playing card.
the pretty bad (age 19). i've pretty much come to terms with the fact that this is an oakland a's tattoo. i pretty much just tell people that now. because i got tired of them asking if it was. i got an a for ashley, which might actually be more embarrassing than an oakland a's tattoo. so, goooo team! big fan.
the cute and tiny (age 25). i got this for my badass nephew, julian river. it's from one of his books called the little fur family. this little guy is going places. he's on the move. he even has a tiny bearclaw.
the bad (age 17). girls first tattoo. can't you tell? the first tattoo could really only be one of two things: a star, or a butterfly on my lower back. still hate this, but i think i made away with the better of the two.
age 22. this one is from a painting by one of my favorite artists, mark ryden. he's rad. and this is blurry.
(age 25) crazy dog lady taken to a whole new level. for my dog, coco. i didn't name her. not that i think coco is a bad name, it's just a little common. she's cooler than a coco. i like the name coco for a person, but in the dog world, it doesn't have as much street cred.
and there you have it---you asked! my not so cool walk down tattoo memory lane. hopefully you didn't think they were deep and meaningful. no regrets.

hehehehe you tramp stamp tramp! Don't worry I'm right there behind ya sister, although that sounds a bit weird, maybe I mean beside you, yeah that sounds way better,( like an ink wing man or a "wink man" get it just made that bad boy up, and bad as wrong) with similar small tattoos that I'm not so sure I love as much as the day I committed but hell, you know they say life is like a tapestry and who wants to leave behind some stingy old faded boring tapesty behind when you can leave behind a crazy colourful technicolour inked, fringey, feathery, triangle loving tapesty! And in the words of my last tattoo, we should all live a bit in "reckless abandon" p.s this tattoo is crooked,hmmm well at least i got this tattoo in the spirit of it's message! hahahh. xxxx
ReplyDeleteI love your Julian River tat! to me that is the sweetest of them all!

i love your tats, many yet simple...i want like 7 tats and i dont even have one yet! am hoping to get at least 2 this year!
ReplyDelete:)
a little butch and a lot sexy. big crush.
ReplyDeleteWell, you're tats are pretty anyways :) I love the little heart by the way, it's really pretty on you (maybe it's your skintone and the matching new haircolor that does that, dunno).
ReplyDeleteJust a question; how bad did the one on your ribs hurt? Planning to get a tattoo there as well, and your the first person I come across who has one as well :)
Love,
Shanah.
omg that reminds me... i know of someone who actually has a tramp stamp with her daughters name. wtf? had some good laughs over that one. i like the heart, good decision with that. and i do like the coco as well. i think it's about time i get another tattoo. thanks for the post. rockin' the red btw.

Oh! what a great post! Like your "aurum" atom! and blurry I like it more, heheh. (I didn't knew "blurry" and I also like this word! "borroso" in spanish!)
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to tattoo... but I confess, I'm afraid. My boyfriend says that when we get married we should tattoo a japanese dragon in our backs, each one. Sounds romantic??? Love japanese tattos... but... there's always a "but"!!

Très sympa ces tatouages :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post, i was too shy for asking which they mean to you, and i thought they are your tattoos, so your privacy :)
ReplyDeletexx, yamina.

ReplyDeleteand the Coco looks cute thought!
:)
i love the furry for the nephew! so adorable!

i love the j.r. tattoo. that is one you will definitely never regret. i am going soon, at age 20, to get my first tattoo very soon. i'm getting a triquetra to pay homage to my celtic background, wish me luck!
ReplyDeletewoop woop woop!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for answering, and for answering so quick :) Oh, well, I don't care if it hurts, I want it, and I'll just do it! I feel like such a bad girl now rrr hahaa.
ReplyDeletei actually did ask in the last post. it sounds like you regret some of them. my fav is the heart one. i love that!!! so simple and unique at the same time!

Hahah, they're just bits and parts of your life you will always remember. That's a great thing about tattoos, they're little memory marks aren't they?

great tattoos!
ReplyDeletehahah i have a tattoo similar to the Oakland A's one, it says Ohana in cursive, and everyone looks at me like i'm a fuckin crazy person and says "oh...you have an obama tattoo?" i mean it's not like i'm not a fan of our prez, i just def got it before we all knew who he even was! great post :) i love the coco one especially
ReplyDeleteLOVE the cosmic one, the star and the cuddly bear!!
ReplyDeleteGod I'm so sad. I have none. Just lots of freckles. Maybe I should do a 'connect the dots' tatt of all of them. Damn what a web that would look like.
GYPSTERRRRRRRRR xxx
I love tattoos and hey some are better than others, but at least they tell a story. Even if it's funny
ReplyDeleteDespite the slight tat remorse on some of them they all end up lookin good once your ensemble-d up. That's all that matters in the end. I like em!
ReplyDeletegirl. you just inspired me to do a post like this. not right now though... maybe later.... malo tacos are calling my name soon!!
ReplyDeleteomgooshhh the little furry guy is ADORABLE!
ReplyDeletepeople get really confused about one of my tattoos too-my mom and i got matching ones with our names a few year back so i have a very delicate little heart with mom in it-although if i go to high 5 someone, it looks like it says WOW. least to say i get made fun of all the time for it. but i still love it!
Ha! Love this post. My first and only tat was gotten at age 23 and it's a lil bat on my hip bone (love vampires and since I was forced to get something by a friend who was getting inked, I went for the bat). I do want another one (a broken heart on my wrist) and will prob get it when my kitty dies (I've had her for forever!)

I've been thinking about doing a post like this myself. There doesn't need to be deep meaning behind your tats. I'm up to 13 and only 3 have a meaning behind them. The rest are just things I really like and will be okay with in 70 years. As long as you like them, keep on going.

I love the little fur family tat, so cute! I still love my first tattoo on my foot but someone once told me the black lines look like a prision tat. eek! Maybe it's time for a touch up?
ReplyDeletefur family one is adorable! love the last one tooX
ReplyDeleteLove them all! they're small and simple but stylish!! That's how successful tattoos should be for me so they can be seen easily. I'm thinking of doing some myself. not quite sure yet :/
