Bobby & Linda


I Imagine Most Of My Readers Have Met Me Or Seen Me. The Reason I Mention This Is Because Anyone Who Has Spent Time With Me Know My Tattoo's.
When I Was 16 Years Old, I Decided To Have My Then Girlfriends Name Tattoo'd(Linda) On My Forearm. That's Alot Of Years Of Having Another Woman's Name On Your Arm. Mrs Mac Has Been A Real Trooper About It Over The Years. I Believe By Having Her Name On My Arm Only Bothered Her When Someone Would Forget Her Name. They Would Look At My Arm And Call Her Linda. I Believe It Sent Chills Down Her Spine. Once She Realized They Meant No Harm She Learned To Live With It. She Never Felt Threatened By Her.
Why I Waited So Many Years To Have It Covered Up Is A Mystery To Me. The Time Had Finally Arrived That A Friend Of Beckie's Was Doing Tat's For A Reasonable Price. I Decided To Finally Have Linda's Name Covered Up With My Son'e Name. He Explained To Me That It Would Be A Two Phased Project. One For The Lettering And Another To Shade In The Background With A Solid Color. It Was Getting Very Late So I Decided To Help Him Out By Telling Him He Can Put Bobby's Birthdate On A Different Day. So After He Cleaned His Supplies I Then Told Him I Could Not Do It Tuesday Night Because I Bowled. I Can't Do It On Wednesday Night Because I Play Euchre. I Can't Do It On Thursday Because I Plan To Attend The Last Mayoral Debates Before Election.
So For The Next Few Days As I Go Through All The Events Of My Week I Will Be Sporting The Names Of Bobby & Linda On My Forearm. Of Course For The Curious, Someone May Ask Why I Have Two Peoples Names On My Arm? To The Not So Curious People Will Not Even Care. I Look At It This Way. I Will Soon Be 56 Years Old. I Reached A Point In My Life Where I Just Do Whatever Pleases Me.
My Son's Name And Date Of Birth Will Be Completed On My Arm Soon. This Is What I Decided To Do.
In The Meantime For The Next Few Days I Will Bear The Names Of Bobby And Linda On My Arm.
After This Tattoo I Plan To Have A Naked Woman Put On My Back, Then Numbers Tattoo'd On My Forehead.
I Thought Maybe I Would The Get Into Body Piercings. Of Course I Would Have My Ear Pierced, Then Possibly My Nose. Call It My Mid Life Crisis Or Call It A Bunch Of Malarkey. I Guess It Leans More In Line With The Malarkey As Far As The Other Tattoo's And Piercings.
For Now I Will Just Stick With Bobby And Linda On My Arm. When It's All Said And Done I Finally Decided My Arm Will Read, Bobby 7-13-81.
