I have been thinking a lot about getting another tattoo. I do want *something* more, but I'm not sure what quite yet. So I thought I would out a kind of informal pole here...

I might get something like a little skull and crossbones, but I'm not sure where. Good idea/bad idea?

Is there anything you might suggest that you might think of as being very 'me' that I might not have thought of?

If you are, say, my sister, would you make me something for me that you would think of as me?

If you are one of my girl-friends, would you get a bee tattoo with me? ;)

Now, don't worry. I wouldn't evver get a tattoo of something I wasn't sure of. But if I can find something that I like now, I'll have a month or so to think about it,. And when I am in F'ton, I'll be near a place that I trust for tattoos (unless Red Lion's reputation has gone all to hell in recent years), which is why I am thinking about it more.

I do kind of wish i still had that cool page of alchemical/occult seals and stuff that julie found ages ago. Maybe I'll hunt back through LJ and see if I can find the link, when I get back from Campus.

Any other tattoo related suggestions for you folks?

We should do it when we're in Fredericton! We'll figure something out and then bee it up!!

Maybe an occult seal WITH A BEE on it!!!

I concur, we should all get bees when you are in Fredericton!! We should plan it out so that we all like it and then DO IT!!

Yeah!! Maybe personalize each person's bee... so they are all the same bee, but with a detail specific to the person... We'll sketch it out!!

I would be down with that - I wish I could be in F'ton when you all will be...

I was almost thinking of suggesting of gettign somethign like your icon, though... do we want bees or bee killahs?

That is an awesome idea!! Only I am not sure how I would personalise mine...

Your bee should have a fedora/pimp hat. Or maybe a zom-Bee?

I would have a bee. It should be in a "no bees" sign and somewhere on the lower abdomen. Only I'm scared of tatoos and worry about what they'll look like when I'm 50. But that's a very very cool idea.

Bee sisterhood :]

bees forever!

I was considering the placement... I don't really want to put something on my lower abdpomen/belly, because that is the place where it is *most* likely to get stretched out of shape :o Maybe on my lower back would be better? Hmmm...

When I went in they told me that the upper back, neck and shoulders are good, as are ankles and so on as far as stretching or warping goes.

I was thinking ankle, myself...

I might have a bee :)- but only in conjunction with my ...err... ninth tattoo which will have poppies and perhaps strand of White and Black Bryony...

Wrist I found hurts\more, also anywhere near bones / tendons

Upper arms, thighs lower back are easy to cover up - elbows, wrists, ankles not so easy (if you are worried about that) - I'm getting less worried, but still haven't shown off my collection at work!!!

I am soooo glad I didn't go for stomach - anythying there would have looked like roadkill after B was born!

Skull and crossbones - sounds like a plan - but could you find some obscure pirate-related symbol which was unique to you - that IMHO would be cooler!!! :)

Bee-and-crossbones!

Hmmm. Guess it's pretty much settled from the above, but I do wonder what you have already tattoo-wise.
