Life of a Blogger #2 ~ Tattoos


Life of a Blogger is a weekly feature where Jessi from Novel Heartbeat chooses a non-bookish topic and gives us a chance to get to know each other better on a more personal level. She posts every Thursday, but you can post another day as long as it's not before 12AM EST on a Thursday.  

Rules from Jessi: "Please stick to the topic order on the list. If you want to catch up on old topics, that's fine, but the point is to link up to the same topic all around the blogosphere, so please do not move ahead or change it to your own topic." 


~ This Week's Topic ~
Tattoos
Topic suggested by Christy 

@ Christy’s Book Addiction


I'm working on 3/4 sleeves for both arms. My left arm is my "Arm of Destruction" ;) where so far I have a heart grenade and a bottle of poison. I'm planning on a Day of the Dead skull, maybe something Doctor Who related like a Weeping Angel, and Michonne's katana.

American Idiot album
On My "Arm of Destruction"




Bottle of Poison with the filler started
My "Arm of Destruction"



Every piece on my right arm will have a connection to my loved ones. I'm getting a record player for my dad, something zombie related for my husband, and something Transformers or Star Wars or something else for my son. I need more time to think about what I can strongly connect my son with. 

Hello Kitty as a Punk Rocker
for my daughter
Got this one in Vegas three years ago




Cameo in memory of my mom
Unfinished - it'll end up having a frame and the silhouette will be redone to look a bit skeletal (think the cover of Pride & Prejudice & Zombies)




And I thought I'd share my husband's tattoo also :D

Back in December 2012, I was interviewed by author Sydney Aaliyah Michelle about my tattoos for her blog. Click here to read my answers to her questions! 

 I also signed up for the Writer's Ink Feature at Ren Reidy's blog, A Little Bit of R&R. Authors, bloggers, and editors will be showing off their tattoos, and it's gonna be awesome! Click here to see the first post. 

Do you have tattoos? Are you addicted to getting them like me?

  1. Oh my gosh, I am not addicted. I got my first tattoo when I was 18 and on my way to college, two dolphins wrapped around a yin-yang symbol, black and white and small. I love it because I can't see it. I never even remember what shoulder blade it's on. Next I got a butterfly behind my ear. Then I got my stupid one, a turtle on the top of my foot. I know, you've lost all respect for my silly girly tats. I'm sorry.

    I think my favorite is the Hello Kitty punk rocker. I spent my allowance on Hello Kitty all the time when I was a kid and I was cheap even then so it was a big deal. " The Cameo is real neat, Jennifer. "Arm of destruction" rocks!

    Happy tatting! hehe

    1. Nope, I still have respect for ya, lol. I couldn't find Hello Kitty stuff when I was little, then when Janie was born, it was everywhere! I have so much Hello Kitty stuff to make up for my childhood. I'm so excited for the cameo to be completed - it's gonna look so awesome! Think the cover of Pride & Prejudice & Zombies. :)

    1. Hey, you can't be older than me. I bet I'm older, lol. I think their album Dookie came out when I was in junior high! So awesome to meet a fellow Green Day fan! Do you have an idea of what you'd want? 'Cause that's important, to be totally and completely sure of what you want. So you don't wake up the next morning and immediately regret it. :)
