Dear...
told you......
Jimmy has this one tat on his right side of a castle that wraps around to his back and if you look carefull it is filled with hidden pictures.He won a national contest with it not bad for being done with a toothbrush,guitar string,tape deck motor,some glue and ink from magazine pages and smoke butts.

Dear Michelle, thank you for being an amazing tattoo artist and drawing this up by yourself when I came to you and said I wanted a tattoo that represented where I grew up and that home is where the heart is, and thank you for being an awesome friend too, oh and for having the most relaxing and nicest tattoo shop I've been in, ever.
Dear skin, thank you for taking the ink so well that it looks like this without a single touch up.

it also stands for triumph, according to traditional japanese legend. A koi fish swam up a waterfall (hence the water) and upon reaching the top turned into a dragon. Which we all know the importance of in japanese culture.
within the water, i plan on including the names of my family (parents, sisters, and grand parents), where the love and passion come into play. =) but thats for stage 2
this is also drawn by hand, i feel honored to have him do it for me. Will Bodnar from Cicada tattoo in aurora. I highly suggest him! For three weeks straight he studied the koi tattoo and its tradition, when i showed up monday the place was covered in pictures, novels and books. he truly goes the extra step.
2 hours of drawing on me, and 1 hour of tattoo... only cost me 1 hour of work. he is truly passionate about it.

That is a nice tat and nice meaning........
When I was younger I tattoo'd a heart below the waist line.....it was great pick up line as I would tell girls my heart was in my pants........got slapped a lot but then again got......you know a lot too........
Now I am old and fat and my heart has stretched out over my waist line.......

WOOOW Brian...When I was 16 I had a heart with flames tatted on my hip...not going into the meaning...BUUUT upon having my first child that little heart turned into a streached out heart...still able to tell what it was....but then I had goblin #2 and it now is a black red and orange blob of ink on my hip....rather embarassing now...and it has a strech mark right in the middle of it...NOT cute lol
Dear Security guards-
I know the policy to park in the office garage is to have a sticker put on the back your car. But what part of 'I will not put a metal sticker on my bumper' do you not get? I realize you have told me to tape it to the back window, remember I told you they are tinted so you couldn't see it anyway and I'm not taping anything to the tint.. So I told you I'd comprise and stick it in the A-pillar on the inside so you can still see and yet you still give me tickets.. I tried to calmly explain to the "lovely" supervisor (and by lovely I be UBER _____) why I won't do it and where the sticker is located, who informed me 'well then you will keep getting tickets'..
Then when I go outside to take my ticket off the car and what do I see.. your security guards pant prints on my car in the dust (yes the car is dirty, haven't bothered washing it cause its raining) where he put the ticket on my car.. so if you continue to hire stupid people who can't see the copper sticker on my window and then lean on the car to put the ticket under the wiper I will be giving you the bill for a new paint job if I find scratches there from the keys and mase you carry on your cool rent-a-cop belts...

Dear Economy:
I know people are saying a lot of bad things about you right now, but I want you to know that I believe in you. I know that things are a little tougher right now because you are not doing well but could you lay off (<--bad word to use right now) my work? Because you are throwing a little tantrum my work has "eliminted" over-time, required us to take our 1/2 hour lunches, and has re-institued a buch of old rules inorder to have one of us slip up, so the boss dosen't have any guilt in getting rid of one or more of us. Now, I know you have been "having a case of the Mondays" for a while now Economy, but its time to buck up and get back on your feet! After all an old Chinese proverb says:
"Failure is not falling down, but refusing to get back up!"
So come on Economy, lets get back on track and help me actually have a retirement, and a future at my job! Come on whadya say, huh? Well get back to me and let me know ASAP 'k? We miss ya!

I know how you feel Eric.........imagine working for a major retailer that is not making any money this year,but spending it like it is growing on trees.......
Now imagine how in January how they are gonna cut a position from every team to pay for their overspending foolishness.
My team is already 2 people short and I am picking up the load to get the work done with help from the other lead on our team.........in January they better fire the guy who has not completed a work order correctly since hired cause the guy they fired last year was a very competant person who was gettign the job done.
