I've got about seven different tattoos planned; they all have particular meanings, they symbolise something in my past or present that's part of me and that I want to have under my skin -- in a way I kind of view it as remaking my body to make sure it reflects me.

I do worry about concealability -- it's a factor in my choices of where to put tattoos. It can matter in the career(s) I'm interested in pursuing. But I've known I'd be wearing a lot of ink since I was 16 or so, I think.

I just can't afford ink right now. Or anytime soon, I imagine. Tattoos are spendy!
