ink...
Wed Jul 22 2009

so, i'm getting closer to 45....a milestone. one that kind of frightens me. so, i've been mulling over what to do about it. i've been mulling over getting something to mark the number, to mark the occasion...

tattoo.

i'm a chicken. but i've thought about it on and off for a while now. on the one hand, i really don't like the idea of marking my body permanently although i know there are ways to unmark now.

i thought about what it should be of...i've always loved the celtic designs. i also love the moon and stars (why else do you think i love my starry night background so much?!) but i've decided that it will be a literary tattoo because i love words, reading, books. i've been doing searches and found a decent site and i also saw a really cool back of neck tattoo of a Vonnegut quote from Slaughterhouse 5... so it goes (one of my favs) and it had a little butthole...you know what i'm talking about if you've read the book.

so. it'll be something from Salinger (maybe a franny & zooey quote or from a perfect day for bananafish)
or a quote from a Sylvia Plath poem or
EE Cummings

we'll see. i've got time.
