My mother always told me...

...if you had nothing nice good to say, don't say anything at all.  Well, it's not that I don't have anything nice to say, just nothing good or important to announce.  Really life has been fairy boring for me.  Who wants to hear about that crap? 


But....in case you were wondering...I've been just fine.  I've been getting used to eating very differently.  I've lost 11 pounds since Wednesday, March 23rd and am still loosing.  Must be the bread and sugar and all the other unhealthy shit I was eating that I'm not now...I don't know. 

I've been working a lot the last week.  My desk was a disaster and now it's clean.  Yay!

I've also been working on my next tattoo.  I want a 1/2 sleeve and would like to start it sometime after August this next year.  The tattoo artist told me to find some pictures that I like and they can piece it together.  Wanna see what I've been working on?  Of course you do....

It will go something like this....

I'm really into fantasy stuff; fairies, cool looking trees, stars, moons, dragons, blah, blah, blah...you get it.  But I want to start with a tree and it's roots at my elbow going up and end with a star & moon type of thing on my shoulder with starts trailing off away from it onto my shoulder blade.  These are my ideas...

One of these two dragons.  I'm leaning toward the second one of the two
because I like it's detail better. 

One of these two fairies.  I am leaning toward the 1st one but instead of daisies
put stars trailing down instead.

I just liked this idea of the stars.  Kind of disorderly but not too messy.

I love this fairy.  Pretty and simple...and naked but not porn-like.

I like this for one reason.  I like the swirly type vines.
I thought I'd incorporate that in the tattoo.

So I like the top of this tree, with....(see below)

...the roots of this tree.  I used a piece of tracing paper and sketched the roots of this tree
with the top of the one above this and it looked pretty cool.

Or I'd just use this tree.  But I don't like how "plain" it is.

I thought this was pretty neat (yes I said neat) that I found this.  The initials of my 3 girls are
A, S and A...just like in this.  Not sure if I like the weed type wisps though.  But I like the stars...

This on my shoulder.  Kind of right on top.  I love this and the colors too.

...and, finally, I love the way these stars trail off.  This is what I'd love to have on my shoulder blade and back.
