I don't have a one but I have what I think is a funny story. I was when I was a new grad and was working at my first job as an OT in an ortho rehab setting. I went into a male resident's room to help him get up as he was only a couple days out from having a total knee replacement done ( he was in his mid 70s). He had a thin sheet on and I saw a lot of lines on his legs, kind of like a lot of "X"s. Me being new and niave I thought maybe it was from the surgery. When I helped him take the sheet off I notice it was along his whole leg. When I asked him what it was he told me it was a tatoo of a fishnet stocking. It went along his whole leg, had the seam in the back and a garter belt!! I asked him why and he said years ago a girl he was dating used to wear them. I asked if he ended up marrying her and he said no. He said he regreted it because he could not wear light colored pants as it would show through and he was an algebra teacher. Sorry this was kind of long, but I still think it is kind of funny

When (if?) I get old, my phoenix will probably turn into a mash of colors. At that point, I'll just let my grandkids stare at it while they use mind-altering substances. I'll be the granny in the nursing home who always gets visits!

My tats are for me too! I want them as reminders of what I am doing with my life. They are all less than 2 years old and I'm already over 50. I'm hoping they will still look good when I really am an old fart. Which is only about 15 - 20 years away!
