Keep it seram wrapped as long as possible. Peeling will lift some of the colors.
My tat is black as possible, but only because I kept it wrapped up for two weeks. (except when I showered.)

But--
there is ton of tat lore out there, soooo... you know.

I had the same issue when I started dating my present girlfriend. We started a few months before V=day and everything I read was for people desperately over the top, which just wasn't right. I ended up picking an underwhelming card and then writing a personal message that upped its value a little more. Turned out to be fine.

In general, its better when you put the time in yourself anyway. It means more later.

Anyhow, this year we went for getting each other bowling balls. We decided we liked bowling together enough it made sense, and now it gives us something additional to do regularly when we're both noncommittal on what to do. I have to say a 4 year relationship is much more relaxed and enjoyable than first awkward crazy days.

Peeling is totally normal at this stage and doesn't harm the tattoo. At this point I would only be worried if there was scabbing.

This was done on Sunday, it's out of the danger zone now. All I have to do from here out is try not to scratch at it.

Seven, darling, you would save some money if you sent things in small Priority Mail boxes instead of the giant ones you're using. Although, admittedly, I get more excited about a big box.

I'll get back to you about those pictures you requested. And maybe some video. :*

politically incorrect things
valentines mushey or over the top sayings

Keep it simple if she asks if you love her....like
" Does ya luv's me george ?"-reply
" I fucks ya, don't I " ~;p

Went in and rigged a Guns & Roses show yesterday, statred at 9am, finished this morning a 5am.
Makes for a long day

Seriously on the Valentines subject.
I hate cards for just the reasons you guy's are saying.
Which is why I always go & make it personal.
First I bring or send flowers to her work...because you KNOW the flowers for her, are more about her showing friends & coworkers what you'll do for her.
Then I make a date with her for dinner,either on Valentines or the first available date we can both fit it in (work & family stuff often clashes with my life) and what she would like to do after, be it a movie, go to the casino, a live show or theatre, I've even sprung for a weekend at a spa hotel/resort. Sure it costs a few bucks...but isn't the one you care about worth something special, for just the 2 of you ?

why is a simple "I love you" not good enough anymore.

I've never bought cards. Always some event planned around that day so the day itself (and thus the card) seemed less relevant. Opera, DSO concert, ballet or something not done very often. They don't always fall right ON Valentine's Day, but I've never heard complaints.

Then again, I hang with a weird crowd, haven't had many relationships......and even those didn't last very long.....

So maybe I'm just thick. ;)

Technical definition; Romantically challenged?

If the local news teams are to be believed, this snowstorm is the end of the world.

I drew a velociraptor inside of stafff's to awesome it up, and politically incorrect things on avie's envelope on his.

I never even knew what valentines was missing was dinosaurs until you showed me. And also candy. Candy rocks.

Because of the overcast there's a lot of trapped light - it's almost daylight-bright outside. Thus we were able to have an 11:30 pm snowball fight.

It was awesome.

You mean we're about to witness the apocalypse and total annihilation of the south through ice and snow again? Everybody run to wal-mart and buy milk, bread, eggs, and cat food! WE MAY NOT MAKE IT THROUGH UNTIL MONDAY!!!!

I don't normally buy valentines day cards, but I'm half tempted to buy one for this girl at work. She's built like Seven (curvy where it counts), she's single and looking, and her roommate came in today and bought hardware to set up a stripper pole in their apartment.

But I'm kind of leery of her, because she's a bit of an airhead who's only goal in life is to be someone's trophy wife, and there's a rumor going around that she likes to sleep around. So I'm weighing the pro's and cons of getting involved with her at any level beyond simply being friends.

Go for it Proteas. Worst thing is she'll say no.
Don't be stuck on the Ducky-Level.

In the best case scenario...
Chlamydia can be cured.

i'd sacrifice a small animal for more snow right now. at least a meter's worth.

common winter; you old cranky bastard.

my wife's birthday is valentines day...

I havent been around this week because the spring semester started this week and I went to my sisters school last night for some honor society ceremony she got into.

Our wedding anniversary is the day before.

I'm getting a food processor and he's getting a new electric razor. Dizzyingly romantic, ain't it?

At 2/6/10 01:27 AM, RydiaLockheart wrote: Well, that depends Proteas. Are you a fan of chlamydia?

But it's so CUTE!!! Why would I want to get rid of it?

I wonder if I couldn't get that for her as a gag gift, so I can go around work saying I gave her the clap...

Also, this sums up the part of Ohio I lived in quite well during snowstorms.

My friends in Pittsburgh report "ass-raping snow."

All you need is a southern twang and it would probably sound like a few conversations down here. ;-D

And just so everyone knows, when I refer to southern twang, I am not talking Rogue from the X-Men cartoon back in the early 90's. I'm talking Henry Cho, which is typical for my area if someone has a twang at all.

But I wasn't kidding about southerner's rushing wal-mart when there is a chance of snow... I went there last night after work (right around 10 pm) to get a few things I needed, and I had to stand in line at the register for a good 10 minutes as the line backed up to the clothing department behind me.

;;;
Just because she sleeps around...I fail to see a problem.
After all if she invited you over to her house & you ended up staying over...wouldn't you have then 'slept around' yourself ?
Which makes you both the same...
The only problem is when you are in a relationship where you've agreed up front to monogamy, I'm in one of those right now & I respect that & expect the same, but I have been in open relationships in my past as well. Until you've tried 3 somes or tag team, you shouldn't knock it, just because it isn't your cup of tea.

So take a chance, the worst thing that can happen is she can murder you in your sleep.

If that doesn't happen...everything else, no matter how bad is still better IMO.
I have a good friend who's motto is "even bad sex is better than self abuse", & yes he's single .
So go for it Proteas
Best of luck, your pal More ~;p

I was brushing off Steve's truck while he shoveled and managed to step in a deep drift - it felt solid, then broke through when I put my weight down. I flailed a bit and thought I had managed to regain my balance, then sort of slowly slid down into the snow. I was pretty much buried instantly.

I think if he hadn't been there to give me a hand, I would not have been able to stand up. Maybe I could have floundered my way over to the clear part of the driveway, but I have my doubts.

So now I'm hanging out by the fireplace in sweatpants. We're not going anywhere for a while, the rest of the driveway can wait.

reminds me of when my friend and I went to Sugarbush to ski/board and we went on a back-country out-of-bounds part of the mountain. There were all these little tiny trees sticking out of the snow, but apparenlty those "little" trees were full grown adult trees and their branches were holding up pockets of snow, so when we fell, we'd break through these small pockets of snow and sink deeper and deeper. I wound up falling down about 8 or so feet into the snow and had to literally climb the trees holding the snow up to get back out. It was crazy but pretty cool.

We wound up spending the rest of the day on the marked trails.

The fact that Pokemon Gold and Silver came out over 10 years ago all of a sudden makes me feel old.

I can't even drink yet.

Sigh

Ok, I completely forgot the Superbowl was tomorrow......

......and that's a sign maybe I need to slow things down a bit, not have my life so full of hectic activities......

I have no idea what that is.

The undergrads were confused. I'm also apparently the only person in the class who read American Girl books.

Actually, I still have my Molly doll.

Been talking with my boyfriend and one of my friends from Pittsburgh. They got walloped.

Here it has been raining hard. The thunder sounded like gun fire =(
No more giant cockroaches, though.

The only thing I know about the superbowl is that it is like the world cup final for Americans. But I am completely ignorant of its structure and nature.

Gold and Silver are 10 years old already? What's that make Red and Blue......cause those are the only two I remember playing.

Christ, I'm so old, I still have my Atari and NES systems. The NES still works and I still play it.

......I'm 2 years away from yelling at kids playing on my lawn......

Red and Blue are like 16, 17 years old.

Hard to imagine it was that long ago when people could say the name Ash without other people snickering.

READY TO BATTLE ASS

IT'S ASH, DAMMIT, ASH
