The Chicken, Er Rather the Flamingo, Has Flown the Coup!

I am going downtown for my last tattoo removal procedure today. My badass flamingo tattoo is now a faded memory. As I sat on the floor of my closet this morning thinking about what shorts to wear since it is going to be 78 glorious degrees in Colorado (what? You don’t do that too?), I had to laugh about something. Someone should tell kids that all the fun things you spend money on as a teenager you will someday spend money to undo. Vicious when that comes back to bite ya I tell ya!

Ooooh! Does that hurt as much as it sounds like it?

Does a laser removal hurt? Also, does it leave a scar? I'm curious... I don't have a tattoo, because I may regret it and I'm so indecisive that I wouldn't know what to get...

If anyone should get a tattoo it should say "I'm dumb." That way when you're older you'll ask, "why'd I get that tattoo?" Then look at it and go, "Ooooh, that's why."

Just thought I throw in some Daniel Tosh humor^^ He's funny as hell.

Daniel Tosh's homeschool joke cracks me up. I totally love his style of humor!

Does it hurt? Simply put...yes, but it's brief and as soon as the laser stops it is numb.

So what you're saying is that
1)I shouldn't get a tattoo
or
2)I shouldn't get a tattoo of a badass flamingo
:)

Jen
I would recommend not getting either unless Kat Von D or Ami James is doing it....oh my goodness! I forgot to bring Ami to my Island! Quick, I have to go add him.

I am glad it's your last visit for the tatoo removal. And during this entire process I am sure you noticed that I never said those
three little words that mother's always tend to fall back on. I hope you appreciate it, because it
wasn't easy. Love, Mom

oh crap! I guess it's four little words! Oh well, Love Mom

Yes folks, my mom just said "crap"...I know, I know, you are thinking the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Michelle Hix said...

Ahhh...don't let the innocent little Kat fool you...she was a teenager not that long ago and I am here to tell you that she gave her mother plenty of grief! ha ha

A flamingo? What were you thinking? I mean to each his/her own but a flamingo? I don't know anyone who's particularly fond of flamingo's. Much less someone who'd tattoo one on their body.

I have two tattoo's one is patriotic and I got it when my hubby got an American flag with a soldier in front of it and we were 25 and 26 at the time. I have one other on my foot. Both are easily covered so I wonder if I'll ever regret it? I don't think so....
