Has anyone seen that reality show called INKED? I think they do a fantastic job at tattoo work. Does anyone have a tattoo, always wanted to get one, or is on the fence about getting one?
I've always wanted a tattoo of a ship crashing into the waves during a storm or a ship with an anchor. After watching the show, I want an anchor in the ocean and a boat in a star filled sky depicting Astral projection. The anchor would depict what's keeping me here on earth.
I want the tattoo to be on my lower back, but I don't want the anchor to end up to close to my butt--I don't want it to get lost, so the ship may have to either be a tiny ship in the heavens and maybe the anchor would just touch one buttock. I'm not sure yet. I also want to lose 10 lbs. I'd hate for the boat and anchor to shrink.

Yeah I've seen it. That's down the road from where I work. My uncle and I were talking about going down there to get tatoos one day. I think we'll probably do that. I was thinking an oriental dragon on my back with a taoist symbol (that yin yang circle thing is a taoist symbol) and the word "believe" in chinese writing. Maybe the dragon would be clitching a yin yang orb in it's claws or mouth or something. I need to get on some acne medication first because I have acne on my back. I don't want anything on my lower back I don't think. I'm thinking the right side for that, mid and upper.
I'm not into bold colors... I like it to kinda blend in.
A strictly astral projection theme would be cool but that's hard to draw. The only thing I could think of would be like an angel, but then it'd just look christian.

Yeah I agree that something Astral would be difficult to draw, but these guys look like they can put anything on you, but maybe I'm wrong. I'm always doing things behind the scenes. Like for example, I like to write plays, not be in them, even though you may think when meeting me that I would be some sort of actor, but my looks are deceiving.
I love the taoist symbol. I've been reading up on this religion. I heard it's the second largest religion in China and they believe in a lot of concepts that I believe in. They believe in chakra meditation. So all that we believe here is some major religions on this planet.
A dragon sounds super cool, especially the way you explain it Blake. I can see you in my minds eye. I think I've seen a pic of you, but I can feel your personality through this thread. No, I'm not into bold colors. I would want a night sky, so the colors would probably be shades of blueish purple and white, and just the color purple may turn to black.
I wonder when we're visiting other planets if we have fun throwing all these orbs around each other.
As for the channel, I have to find out because I live in NY and my Mom lives in NJ and we have different channels. She's been talking all night about wedding dresses and how someone's going to be a princess in England, that's the last thing I want to put on television so I didn't care what channel it was on.

Oo, yeah did you hear that from me? I meant to correct myself in that post. I heard that that wasn't right and that taoists were astually kicked out of china and some practice in secret there but most moved to taiwan.
I don't really know... I'm gonna have to finish reading the original texts to be sure I like it as much as I think I do before I get that symbol put on me. I was really excited about it the first time I read about it though. I guess you heard if you read my post in the OBE world called "death and taoism" or something.
Well I'm actually supposed to be working lol. Better go
