tattoo

following #BlackMetal instas

i can't get enough

also following more #tattoo-related instas as well (obvs. always have)

but let me talk about my tattoos

i don't think i am getting anymore. if there were ever a chance for me to get whateverthefuck i wanted, it would have been in this past week, and i didn't get anything. I sort of always wanted just the koi fish (+ all the shit i got before it) and i wanted to toss in a bicep piece so my upper-arm didn't look too empty. I got both of those pieces, proud of ALL my tattoos, and don't think i need to get anymore.

The thing is: they are an addiction. Addictive as far as the endorphins go, addictive as far as the adrenaline rush goes, addictive as far as “space” on the body goes (there is almost always room to fill-up), etc. And I simply cannot AFFORD to get the amt of ink that i really want to get. I would LOVE to be covered head-to-toe, but i am not gonna go crazy thinking abt it. No longer.

I am happy w/ what i have and maybe on some one-off impulse i will get another piece of work, but i am not going to go out of my way to get more work done. Aside from getting my ears pierced (which i would like to do v soon), i am not v concerned w/ body mods anymore. I have plenty o' ink, and i am satisfied with that :)

So anyway, that's it for now.

Be back in a bit!

Construction Hell

The apartment complex that i live at decided to hire an outside crew of people to tear up the floors in the apartment above me and i go ZERO notice that they were going to do this. They have been slamming away with a sledgehammer for the past three hours and now the sun has gone down and they are still at it. So, tomorrow i am going to walk into the office and TELL them I am NOT going to pay the rent this month. This is insane. If they had given me notice, i might have considered overlooking it, but they didn't, so I won't.

This just means more $$$ for a #tattoo when rent is due and I will get something bigger than i had already planned on. #WorksForMe
