My Mother has this saying she loves to use when anyone mentions a tattoo around her! She always says, “when you were born I checked you head to toe to make sure there wasn’t a mark on you, so why would you then go and mark yourself up?” She has also said to my sister and I more times than I could count, “if you ever get a tattoo I will know then I’ve officially failed as a parent!” I know, she’s so dramatic! Either way she’s very passionate on her anti-tattoo stance!
I’m not sure where I fall in the whole, “to tattoo or not to tattoo,” dilemma! Doug has talked about getting tattoos for years, and even though I know it would look great, something in me always hesitates when he talks about it! I guess it’s the commitment level of a tattoo that freaks me out! I mean, this isn’t nail polish, it doesn’t just come off when you’re tired of it, this is for life! I have a ton of friends that have tattoos, and I love the way they look! I think it’s all about going to the right person, because if tattoos are done right, they look awesome! Doug can’t make up his mind, and I’m not much help, because I’m pretty much 50/50!
I guess I have no idea what I actually think about tattoos! Wait, I take that back, I know that at this moment, I’m not ready for the life commitment of a tattoo for myself, and for the mental health of my Mom, probably never should be! LOL! It should be interesting to see what Doug decides though! To tattoo or not to tattoo that is the question!!
Lots of Love,
