Yep I like some of  the designs, but actually cutting the skin to do it, OWWW!!!!    I think the raised profile gives me goosebumps , if I get any more tattoos done it will be with good old fashioned  ink. Quote The Caveman   Posted on May 19 2008, 13:40 The Queen crest would be cool but since it's made up of their starsigns pick your own sign and  of your favourite people and make your own up. I said about the Queen Crest as I'm nuts on Queen, I also share a Cancer star sign with Brian May, as my birthday falls eight days before his (I incidentally share my birthday with Tubular Belle who I "met" and first "spoke" to  on here, weird that as  she's in Southern Austrailia and I'm in England, all that distance out of 365 days a year to find we have the same birthday). I could also use the lions in the Queen Crest ,  as My Dad and my Grandad (Father and son in Law both share the same birthday in August), my Nan is also a Virgo   , so yep when I get some money together that's one I will get a tattoo of.   I was thinking about maybe doing my own based on my starsigns and my boyfriends star signs       , the only thing is if it goes wrong, (but I doubt it will as unlike my previous long term  relationship/marriage  , we feel able to discuss things), I'll have to find another Saggitarian. If I had any doubts about it I wouldn't be planning on upping sticks and moving.     Who says that Cancer and Saggitarius can't get on together, whoever wrote that about astrology was talking a load of old balls   -------------- I'm going slightly mad, It finally happened, I'm slightly mad , just very slightly mad If you feel a little glum to Hergest Ridge you should come.

I only got my ears pierced (once in each) in my thirties, and that was because friends had given me earrings as gifts. Now that I've got 'em, I do enjoy wearing earrings on occasion. But I often forget to put them on. As for tattoos, I don't usually find them attractive. I once considered the possibility of a small one, but - like you - I'd rather spend my money on other things. Oh, my. Can I be in love with you? By the way, someone mentioned giving blood. I've only given blood once so far, but I was quite impressed with how little it hurt. Maybe it's because my arteries absolutely jump out of my arms, so getting the needle in is pretty much effortless. -------------- Check out http://ferniecanto.com.br for all my music, including my latest albums: Don't Stay in the City, Making Amends and Builders of Worlds.

They have a hard enough time getting my blood simply for exams, so I'm not that eager to play pincushion if I don't have to. -------------- "I'm no physicist, but technically couldn't Mike both be with the horse and be flying through space at the same time?

Inkanta Group: Admins Posts: 1453 Joined: Feb. 2000 Posted: June 04 2008, 23:03 Wish I could donate. My former workplace organized blood drives, and one was right outside my office. I attempted to donate. I workout, have good veins, and I don't know if it was the person drawing the blood or me, but after the longest, most agonizing experience I've ever been through involving that process, she only netted a half a bag. It was so discouraging and the needlestick hurt for days. I guess the blood, meager as it was, wouldn't be wasted--according to the nurse it might have gone on to be used in activities like police training, where they might throw it against the wall or some such thing. I try to find other ways to make myself useful, like helping out during local disasters (the tornado, for instance and floods) , food banks, community organizations, etc. But still not the same as giving blood.   -------------- "No such thing as destiny; only choices exist."
