Like the way I'm not using complete sentences tonight!?!

How does your arm feel today? Healing nicely?

travel safely and return quickly...i'll miss ya while you're gone

and you're right about Anatolians, they are used to guard flocks of sheep. They are very loyal and territorial. My guy is just a big 'ol teddy bear!

glad you are feeling better

i can't wait to see the finished product. you mentioned the rest of your tattoos have true significance, what else do you have and what do they mean to you? I guess I am the one being nosey now

i was just thinking about you and wondering how the tattoo looks! Can't wait to see it!!!

you expressed yourself perfectly. i understand completely!

do tell, what is so shameful about a celtic knot? is there a shameful story behind it?! the wave is going to look so amazing when it is done. Can't wait for pics! and oh my, your nipple is pierced *swoon*

what type of creature is Leonard? Is he a Gecko? Excuse my ignorance, I don't mean to offend Leonard.

still laughing about your first tattoo experience story! good stuff!!

ahhh, you ask about Katydids (you are neither dumb nor nosey)
sweet little creatures and you are correct, they are related to grasshoppers


I posted this to my page once, seemed to fit the way I often feel:

Katydids get their name from the way their songs sound. Some katydids have been called long-horned grasshoppers because of their long and slender shape. However, all katydids are more similar and related to crickets than grasshoppers. One of the things that makes them different from their relatives is their antennae which may be two or three times the length of their body. These antennae are covered with sensory receptors that allow katydids to find their way around in the dark, when most of them are active.
Being discovered often means death for insects. Katydids are eagerly sought by sharp-eyed and hungry predators, from bats and birds to snakes and shrews. To avoid becoming another creature's meal, katydids have had to evolve cunning and devious ways to hide. Few other groups in the insect world have as wide a range of survival tactics as katydids. Katydids do everything from posing as remarkably life-like leaves to mimicking other insects in their attempts to make it through the day without being eaten.

I love their song and they seem to pop up where you'd least expect to see them. Not sure why I became so fascinated by the little creatures, but that is how I got my name Catiedid, a play on my name and my love of the sweet little creatures.



And that ends my lesson on the Katydids!

i do love my dogs, even as i watch them destroy my house. the big dog is just turning 1 so i figure 2 more years and my house will be safe from destruction and I can start repairing and replacing!

naughty in braces...really...you think?!

i hope you have another great weekend!!

"Why would anyone want to make fun of your voice, I think you sound perfectly lovely! are you sure that's a cat though? Sounded like the exhaust system of a mighty powerful engine to me, unless of course you're housing Siberian tigers as opposed to fluffy house cats!"

Thanks for the compliment.

Are you inquiring about the horsepower of my pussy?

If a cautery pen is used for branding , you can get some rather intricate patterns. My branding is a multi-strike, but is still great. I looked at your tat- you could definitely get branding work done in the negative spaces.Nice piece BTW. I dont think that branding would necessarily destroy a tattoo- it would depend on the tattoo and I think whether the scabs from the brand healed cleanly-and thats all a matter of taking care not to pull the scabs off etc. Really, though, Im not a pro- just a satisfied customer. I would think you'd have to find a brander in the U.K. and talk to them. Have you checked BMEzine? There has to be some directory of piercers and branders in the U.K. Ask your tattooist. Hope I'm helping some.

Hey hey hey,

you know you can beat glass eyed pikey couples! As long as everything is nailed to the floor your fine. Just need to make sure your shoes are on tight, cos seriously they'll have anything!

As for exotic meat, if you every get a chance try springbok 10 out 0f 10, its delicious and nutricious (so i've heard), wildebeast comes in close at 9.75 out of 10.

What ever you do don't bother with zebra, it mings (which isn't nice).

American Idol is a guilty pleasure for sure...but wait...didn't the whole idea come out of England?! You whacky Brits and your crazy show ideas!

hey, tomorrow is pay day! enjoy a hot meal!! and make sure you have a great weekend.

i will share some of my hope with you. not only does no hope= no fear but no hope=unhappiness. this world is full of people who will hurt you, but it is also full of people who will love you. hang in there and i hope you feel better.

please don't apologize and feel free to rant whenever you need to. sometimes just expressing yourself and getting it all out makes you feel better. and sometimes it's easier to let it all out to a stranger than someone you know. i'm glad the date went well. i hope you have many more good ones!

1. What is the fastest land animal?
Cheeta

2. How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? (to the nearest square foot)
Half a cord a day

3. What is the general opinion Americans have of us brits?
I don't think most Americans really have much of an oppinion about Brits. Personally I would rather hang out with a Brit than an American any day of the week. Most of the Brits I've met know how to have a good time.
