No tattoos. I'm toying with designs of a great-tailed grackle. They're smurfing everywhere in my town during the cooler months. Once I was standing at the end of an empty parking lot at like five in the morning with a friend, and I yelled her name like way loud and suddenly the parking lot became a shade lighter and this big black cloud of bird flies away from us. I like the idea of it because nobody in my home town is born here. Just like the birds they come here because we don't have winter. Some of them are just winter Texans (or Snowbirds as the Floridians call them) and some of them are here because they're navy or family of navy. My family moved here because my grandmother became ill and needed to be somewhere warmer than the midwest. Also they're kind of ratty looking and I like that.
And I don't have to explain the symbolism because it'll look like just another bird tattoo and no one will bother asking what it means. Not that I wouldn't want to ever, but working in a retail environment I'd have to like eight times a day.

I thought about getting bread-and-butterflies on my other foot, but I'm saving it for an assortment of a toadstool with the Hatter's 10/6 hat and a watch sitting on it and a teapot and teacup on the ground, I think. It is going to hurt like a biiiiiitch, though.
