How Many?

To get this group started, how many tattoos does everybody have? I have eight, my last one added on October 6th. Everytime I get one, I think "this is the last one" but before I know it, another idea pops into my head and my thoughts are all a buzzin' with what/where. I know everybody says this (and unless you have one, you just don't know) but it's so damn addicting (and expensive)!

December 20th I have my first sitting with Justin at Fat Ram's Pumpkin Tattoo in Jamaica Plain, MA. I'm REALLY psyched. It's going to be a big back piece. I have plans for more that will be a 1/2 sleeve but first things first. :); ▶ Reply to This

The 2nd one I got three months later as a memorial for my nephew that passed away when he was 19 months old. I am constantly debating about whether to get another one. I LOVE MINE! My husband would rather I stop at the two I have, but I know if I want another one, he won't put his foot down about it.; ▶ Reply to This

I'm planning a small tattoo this summer, possibly, something I've wanted for a very long time.; ▶ Reply to This

I'm enforcing a strict six month waiting period to try and space out new tattoos, and to give me chance to think over ideas as they arise. But every time I walk past a tattoo shop and hear that buzzing, my skin starts itching for ink...; ▶ Reply to This

I have a vine on my lower back (tramp stamp) that I got when I was 18, a fox (fox racing) on my stomach (hubby has a matching one on his back), a ladybug on my left foot, and a breast cancer ribbon behind my ear (in honor of my Mom); ▶ Reply to This
