Weekend Re-Cap and TATOO pic!

So, I know I've kept you waiting a day longer than I had said. Yesterday was a crap day and I just did NOT feel like blogging. I have to be in somewhat of a good mood before I'll even start a post. I prefer my blog to have a happy vibe, rather than an emo-cutter-kinda-vibe. The weekend was eventful. Melissa and Michelle came to Oklahoma and Renee made her way up to Tulsa. Friday night we acted like wild and crazy girls like any good girls would who hadn't seen each other in a while or ever...and we celebrated...



...by getting tattoos...


I know you'll be in shock to find out that my tattoo is Twilight related...I'll give you a minute to compose yourself...I didn't go completely crazy and get Edward's profile or RobPattz signature, which some have done. I kept it simple. I had went through sooooooo many pictures of "Twilight tattoos", apples, fonts, "sparkles"...it got so confusing, but one thing I knew I wanted from the get-go was "frequently dazzled" in Edward's font. The phrase comes from one of my favorite parts in the first book. Bella tells Edward "you shouldn't do that to people." Edwards says " do what". Bella responds "dazzle them the way you do." Edward asks "do I dazzle you"? Bella responds "frequently". Ahhhhhh. Don't you just love that?! The apple came next, it just made sense. It has such meaning in the book, but can also have other meaning outside of Twilight. Inside the realms of Twilight it mostly refers to Bella being Edward's forbidden fruit...and how we often "crave" the things we can not have. Outside of Twilight it often reflects fertility, love, sensuality and sexuality, temptation and sin. The last thing I added was the "sparkles". Anybody who knows Twilight gets that. If you don't know...Edward sparkles...plus, it's "dazzling". PLUS, I needed something to fill out the tattoo.

The tattoo... (it's on my left side...think rib area)...I'll post a better one after it heals.



I've got a few more pics to share from the weekend, but I'll save them for another post. (Edward appears in a few of them...☺)

I know you're thinking I'm totally crazy right about now, so I won't throw any more at you today...I'll let the whole Twilight tattoo thing sink in first.

Hope everyone is have a great week so far!

Yes, Robin...everyone else got tattoos. They weren't Twilight tattoos though. However, the other three girls got equally fabulous tattoos! They all turned out really great. Michelle got her husbands name on her lower back, Melissa got a cross on the back of her neck, and Renee got "Believe" on her shoulder.

Becca @ The Texas Darlings said...

SO, I'm not a fan of tattoos for myself- anyone else- fine. But I must say that you have a pretty cool tattoo- I love how much thought you put into it. And it turned out GREAT!!'

Lemon Annie said...

This is exactly why I love you so much! You do things that I couldn't in my wildest dreams. You are a riot.

I suddenly feel a lot better about myself and my unhealthy obsession with Twilight. I love that fact that you are so comfortable with who you are and you don't care what anyone else thinks. I love the tattoo by the way. I am actually kind of jealous.

Interesting...

Cherrie said...

Kelli said...

What a fun time getting tattoos with girlfriends. You do really love Twilight, we all have our passions. If I was brave enough to get a tatoo it would be of a dolphin because I love them that much...see, we all have passions! Glad you had a great time!

Alicia said...

Oh My Gosh! That is... GREAT! I thought I was was pretty hard-core, but girl! You take the whole freaking Cake! :) Getting tat with girlfriends would be fun - but I'm only daring enough for the stick-on kind! Now if they had Twilight STICK ONS... I would feel a whole lot cooler!! Have a Great One!
