Anticipation for Hallucination

I'm up early today, mostly because I'm getting ready to go out.
Not anytime soon, more around noon.
Either way I'm going to my tattoo artists friends house, and we're going to sit down and draw up a tattoo for myself.

I'm getting one on each wrist, and stil debating the knuckles.
If not my knuckles, my right inner forearm, because I already have something on my left.
Just to even things out, you know?

Today I'm writing in my blogspot, because on Livejournal, I have stalkers.
Yes, stalkers.
It's creepy.

Although I did post something there last night, which you should all go read by clicking here.

First off, I know for sure I'm getting 3 X's on each of my wrist.
The irony behind it all, is whilst talking to my friend, he compared it to the X's on Molson Beer bottles, which you can see here.

The irony comes into play with that fact that....well...they're going to represent
Straightedge-ness. (click the link)

They're going to be outlined in black, with a red center.
On the inside of my wrists.

Damn, it's going to be a weird sensation.

Alas, I want it, I'll deal.

Fortunately, Rob is a good friend of mine, and is going to do them for me, for free.
He's a well known tattoo artist in Charlotte,NC.
But he's on vacation.
Yay for me!

It's not what you know, it's who you know.

During, and after my tattoos, I'll be posting pictures, and etc.
I'll also give you guys a picture of his business card, as he's an excellent artist, and travels by word of mouth.

He comes to you.
Seriously.
Anywhere.


I've been having thoughts lately, and it just recently hit me.
(I'm a late bloomer)
I don't care what people think of me.
I'm going to start loving my own body.
Which will be hard, because I'm one insecure guy.

But I'll try.

Sorry for rambling.
Carry on.


Plural Moose, is mooses,

  1. I like the way you write. Well said. Good luck with the tattoos. Wrist tats are beautiful. I, too, have tattoos on each of my wrists: on my right, I have a rose bud to symbolize the beginning of life, and on my left, a rose pas full bloom, dying (there's a stray petal and some purple to show its final stages), to symbolize, well, quite obviously, death. I think your idea is great, and congratulations on being a straight-edge dude. That's very admirable. Are you vegan as well? I was just wondering because when you write about food (on Twitter), it tends to be veg :). Keep on writing, and be well. tragedia
