Wild Side

i want a tattoo... fo sho. i've wanted one for quite a long time now and about ten or eleven months from now, i will have one. my parents might flip you-know-what but honestly i have no idea how they would react. but, i'll be 18 so i guess they won't really have much of a say in it really. might be grounded or something for quite a while but at this point, who knows? then again there's always the possibility of them being cool with it. i think there is a pretty decent chance that they will be. my dad has a couple tattoos so he can't really bad-mouth it at all and i told my mom i was getting one and she didn't seem to care much. she probably thinks i'm going to change my mind about it sometime before i'm old enough to get one though.

hee, my grandma always said that when each grandkid turned 16 she was going to take them to get a tattoo. the parents didn't approve, but we all thought it was cool. unfortunately she died when i was 15 so i guess i never even got the chance to see what would happen.

as far as what i'm going to get and where, i really don't know. i'm not stupid, i realize that tattoos are a permanent thing that i'm going to have to live with forever so i better like it. i've been thinking about it quite a bit and the one thing i know for sure is that it has to relate to horses somehow. i thought that maybe i want to do something like a horseshoe on my upper back, maybe with a rose wrapped around it, i don't know we will see.

the other day i found out that amanda wants one too which is totally sweet. :) luckily we turn 18 the same month so i told her we HAVE to go get one together. pretty sure her parents are going to disown her, but at least it will be fun... right? i think i want to make sure they think i had nothing to do with it as well because if they found out i was involved, good-bye to us hanging out i think. they already know that i tend to be sort of a bad influence on her so i can only imagine what they would think if they knew i went out and got a tattoo with her. nevertheless, i'm crazy and i like it so i think it's going to stay that way.
