In an attempt not to feel stagnant

[Pridefest, Milwaukee, June 2006]

Tattoos are common now, but for some reason, people were shocked that I just got one. Whatever the "tattoo type" is, people have been telling me that I'm not that type.

Hmm.

I suppose that's why I did it. I needed to shake things up. I needed to do something I thought I'd never do.

I needed to surprise people.

I needed to surprise myself.

Type, schmype! Your tattoo is great, and I agree that it's good to shake things up! I really want one eventually, and yours just reignited that. Maybe this summer!

I have to say I wasn't the least bit surprised that you got a tattoo. And truthfully, I really don't think there is a "type' anymore.

I've always enjoyed your photography and am looking forward to seeing it on a regular basis again. You have a unique "eye" for things.

I agree, there isn't a type of people anymore that gets a tatoo. It is a personal decision, and as long as it has meaning to you it's fine... or heck, just get one for fun, it's all good to me.

Where's the tattoo and what is it of?
