can I get an inkless tattoo? do they do that?
I guess that's called acupuncture, eh?

I've never had acupuncture, but understand it is pretty painless.

Tats, not so much. It (the pain) is part of the overall appeal and transition. imho.

Yes, that's my point too. I've never had acupuncture either, though I am interested.
I would get a tat only for the sake of the pain. I don't want an image.

Though I might consider something just for the sake of weirdness.
A hollow square around my belly button.
or on the back of my neck.
or a spoon on the back of my neck.
A spoon inside a square?
I like spoons, they're pretty.

I wouldn't want it to be representative of something I "believe in." Such things are too fickle.
But I doubt I'll ever really get a tat.
There, I considered it. Done.

Yep, just Midol. At least that I know of.

Spoons!

Ha! London. They gave us these really huge spoons (forks too) in our hotel's dining room. It was a running joke that they considered us (Americans) neanderthal and so they gave us the fist grip utensils. Ah, but I digress. Spoons. Gotta love em. Made split pea soup today and used one. What a coincidence!!

Yeah. In my 30's I never considered getting a tat. Wait till you get into your 40's. Whether it's to be a rebel (nostalgically) or something that just seems right, it could happen. It's definately not something to be done frivilously.

Hi Laurie - I enjoyed this. You've used some very clever imagery.
I really enjoy tattoo's - not little ones though, big bold ones.
I don't have any on my own body, but I love them on someone else's.

Thanks Cate!
I enjoy little ones (total of 2) on me and big ones on others
Glad you liked it.

cheers,
Laurie
