I once thought of getting a tattoo but I could never find one that I would love for the rest of eternityI am sad.
Son #2 has gone to get a tattoo.
I asked him not to. I told him not to. I begged him not to.
I refused to drive him. Likewise, I refused to pick him up.
I know it's his skin, but seriously, he has put minimal thought into this. And it's so permanent. (I've seen @sweetpee_1993's pics; he's never going to go through that.)
Hubby is going to flip.
And me, I am sad.
I am sad.

Girl, my mother went with me when I got that old tattoo inked. She tried everything and anything to get me to not do it. She said to her husband at the time "Tell her she can't do this!" He told her that'd be a waste of breath and that was true. He told her I had made up my mind and it was going to happen. Her fighting only strengthened my resolve so he recommended she go with me. And she DID! So at 19 my momma went with me shaking her head and sighing the whole way. You know what? It's the first time she ever really let go and let me be me. Was the tattoo a mistake? That one was, yes. But I don't regret it in any way because for the first time she let me be my own person. And she supported THAT. At the time she kept saying "you'll regret this". My response was "I saved to get the tattoo...if I change my mind I'll save to have it removed." That's exactly what happened. Of course, years later when I went for the laser removal Mom had the ultimate satisfaction of me calling to tell her she was right. We had such a good laugh over it. On both ends it was something we shared in our way and I have no regrets. Not one.I am sad.

I recommend telling your son to have a "dry run" of the needle before the ink starts flowing. Just to be sure he can deal. Not sure what he wants or where. I can tell you different locations feel very different. Needles on the shoulders are aggravating. Needles across the spine and stretch marks is work, hours of Lamaze breathing techniques, to control myself.
I told my boys if they wanted tattoos it'd be best to wait until their bodies are finished growing. I told them we'd be objective, support them, find a skilled artist with references to do it right, and we'd like to be part of the experience. So far, at 16 & 18, neither have any interest.
Well I never poked my nose in because I wasn't looking for Bob Saget. LOL! Didn't wanna crash the party, so to speak. So are y'all still desperately seeking the Big Bob or what? I think I'm confused now. I was summoned to the Sageteers re: tattoo removal. Is the tattoo of Bob Saget, maybe? A map to the stars???? LOL! J/K! Regardless, I do feel for a fellow mom and shall lend my support any way that I can. Is there anything I can do to help find Bob???Welcome to the thraed!! @JenniferS was summoned here around 30,000 posts ago and has stuck around ever since. Hope you check in more often!

I dont drink coffee, so cant have an opinion on that, I just collect the mugs as mementos.Thanks, me too and a good sized cup that keeps coffee warmer longer. I also like the black and white one with tiny clips of Mickey cartoons on left and in the middle, the one with Mickey's feet near the wooden bar, that is a Mickey-Chicago mug. He is blowing sideways holding on in the Windy City. Minnie is cute too. Next up I want the new Magic Kingdom mugs. There is one for each land.
And I am a fan of the Animal Kingdom Tree cup too
falling branches not included
Oh God yes! You'll all hunt down @JenniferS and smack her for opening this Pandora's box. I never shut up! LOLOLOL!!! God help all of you lovely Sageteers! Bwahahahahaaaaa!!!!!We gave up looking for him. Now we just basically post stream of consciousness ramblings to pass the time. You'll fit right in!
can I get adopted too? lolOkay, that's it. You and @PUSH need to let your parents know that I am trading them one of mine for each of you two.
I promise to let you use my car, take you to Disney at least once/year, lend you money on the seemingly never-repayment-plan (oh wait, that's my brothers), pay your cell phone bill, and I'll still keep the cleaning lady for those icky jobs we don't want to do.

Geez, and here I was thinking there was some really powerful Bob Saget love to be so desperately seeking him for so long. Hahaha!!!!
So, all of you please cross your fingers, legs, eyeballs, eeeeeverything that Mr. SweetPee can score the spot on a project in the great white north so we can set off on a year long ultimate adventure!!!! It's not the best of chances....the spot was offered to his uncle, actually, but he is turning it down and telling them to call my hubby who is itching to go. Because we are! But, they'd have to not already have someone else in mind AND be willing to pull the old man off the project he's currently working. So many things would have to happen just so. But we WANT it and I'm afraid because we want it so bad it's surely not gonna work out. I'm a ball of nerves here!!!!!! Aaaaaargh!!!!
Bruce willis was a barman.And what some people did in their previous life......
Johnny Depp worked as Sold pens on the phone
Sean Connery was a milkman
Eva Mendes sold hot dogs at the mall
Whoopi Goldberg put makeup on corpses at mortuary
Us old folks have ink, too. I'm 40. I had 3 but down to 2. Definitely would get more. Plan to at some point. Tattoos are definitely more prevalent than they used to be. The stigma is quite different from when I got my first tattoo. My mom when I got my first at 19 it was totally a different thing than when my mom was 19....or when her mom was 19.... LOL!Tattoos are so common these days. I'm not a fan of them, and I don't ever plan on getting one, but it's amazing how many young people get them.
