Speaking of Tinder dates, this women went on 150 of them and analyzed them giving pointers to men (although I am sure a video from the other side could also be useful)
I went to a “black tie” party last night! One of the tattoo parlors here hosts a black tie event with gambling, rock bands, etc to raise money for Toys 4 Tots. It was fun, but I was invited kind of last minute so I had to throw together my look.
tattoo parlor black tie?! that’s sounds awesome. I’ve been considering another tattoo over Christmas break. We’ll see if I pull the trigger
It was so much fun! And I met a well-known tattoo artist from my area. He’s a judge on Ink Master. It was definitely a nice way to break up the monotony of the week.
That black tie party sounds really cool, Kare!
Also, I may be going on a date with a professional trombone player.
@veritek…what’s the new tattoo? I’m trying to be responsible and not blow my bonus on a new tattoo, but to wait, like I planned, to get it around my birthday in July.
@ladyinpurple well, i have two on my back that are easily hidden by my hair and bra. One is a star in the center that can be covered by my hair and the other is the latin “ad astra per aspera” right on the bra line (a rough road leads to the stars) – so I’d like to break with my star theme and do something on my feet.
I’ve been debating on mumford and son’s lyrics (Keep the earth below my feet) because that’s the most played song on my iTunes and I just love it so much. ORRRRRR some Robert Frost “I’ve got promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep” because i love it, and I’m a runner so miles to go just seems appropriate on my feet.
I like those tattoo ideas! I have an idea for a tattoo that I’m hoping to get once I achieve a couple of my personal goals. (as a treat for myself- I gotta work for it!)
I got matched with the trombone player on Coffee Meets Bagel. I generally “like” the matches I get unless there is something in their profile I don’t like. Anyway, he messaged me asking if I had done theater in high school, (since my profile listed my HS and we’re the same age) since he is from the same area and was in the orchestra. Turns out he was thinking of a different school from mine that has the same name, but I did do some theater and we got to talking about that. Anyway, he’s pretty nice to talk to, we seem to have a few things in common, and he’s fairly cute. I’m actually curious to meet him, since I have never met a trombone player. So yeah!
Oh man, a tattoo parlor black tie party sounds awesome! And @Veritek all those ideas are great!
I have been lurking on here and not really contributing, cause I’ve been crazy busy but I really really want to gush about the date I had last night. I haven’t been this excited about a new person in two years, and there was just instant chemistry and great conversation and the excitement seems to be mutual. He is working on his PhD in physics and he sings and is super geeky (tabletop games and books yay!) and has a really nice body and was a great kisser.
I have gone on so many dates where even if I enjoyed it well enough, I didn’t really care if I saw them again and my general feeling was pretty ‘meh’. I totally forgot what it felt like to actually be into someone
Also re: tattoos – anyone else here a Star Trek: DS9 fan? I really want to get trill spots tattooed. I’ve been thinking about it for 11 years, but it would be such a long, expensive project that I haven’t ever actually gone for it.
