Daily writing prompt

What tattoo do you want and where would you put it?

I guess this is round two of answering this prompt. I just got a notification that someone liked my post “what tattoo do you want and where would you put it?” and I was thinking wait, I didn’t answer today’s prompt yet…oh my gosh, maybe I’ve been hacked…but no, it’s from one year ago.

At that time I hadn’t yet gotten a real tattoo. I had only a stick ‘n poke tattoo on my finger. Clint’s initials. CJNB.

On a whim last summer I booked an actual tattoo, my first, at the age of 47. It’s giving midlife crisis I know. But that’s okay. We’ll regret more the things we did not do than the things we did right?

I’m not sure I want more tattoos to be honest. For some reason my newsfeed on Instagram has been full of posts about how they’re seeing a correlation between getting inked and cancer. Especially with the larger tattoos. And I know that every second day someone is relating something to cancer but just the same, it does kind of scare me.

I love tattoos, I really do. I think they’re very attractive. They’re also very cliche.

If I were to get another one it would be teensy weensy.
