I can only type this here because no one knows me in RL and this train of thought is so childish it really embarrasses me. Allow me to vent.
So I made another thread a while back about wanting to get largish tattoos on both of my biceps for my birthday. Well, today is my birthday and I'm going to get it done this weekend but I have an issue I just need to say to someone.
The design itself, and this is the pathetic part. it has 2 common elements with the tattoos of a person i dont like at all. i made a thread about a girl who tried to steal my boyfriend early in our relationship (that still secretly causes tension for me).
yeah, her tattoos.
one element is a skull - which i realize isnt original at all. i want to get it because my brothers first tattoo (when I was in 4th grade) was of a skull and it made me love tattoos and count the years until I could get one of my own. I wanted to get a skull tattoo tribute to my brother years ago - but she beat me to it and it is also placed on her bicep were my brothers is/i want to get mine.
the second is one of the skulls having an eye patch - because my father is blind in one eye and wears an eye patch. she has tacky/trendy new school pirate pin-up girl on her leg. I feel like it might be misconstrued as a pirate tattoo instead of a tattoo of my father.
and this is were i feel even more psycho - i had a burlesque pin-up on my leg which i know she had seen at least 6 months before her pin-up tattoo. I felt that she was "copying" me slightly, so maybe thats why I'm so concerned with NOT copying her (because I really dont want anything to do with her) but I also dont want some dumb slut to make my tattoo experience less special. because those things - though common elements - are very personal to me.
i dont know what im saying anymore.
its my birthday, im 25. But I have the social skills and experience of a 10 year old.
i also had margaritas for breakfast
yay.
