Good Evening Folks,
Ever want to do something that you'll like now, maybe regret later, or not even regret it at all? Ever want to do something that you're family might hate, other people will like, and will probably tick off "authority" because they "recommend" that you don't? It's a nice thought isn't it... In fact, why don't we act upon these thoughts? Why can't we make ourselves happy for the moment, and divulge at that one thought that could possibly make a difference. What's mine? It's tattoos of course!
For years I've wanted to get ink. I have my own personal reasons why (and what I would want) but apparently, it's an issue when you've had a healthy kidney from a transplant. Well, what if that kidney stopped working and you're on dialysis? What if your doctor's want you to wait for a transplant since you're body is an asshole. It's hard to decide right? That's my issue right now. Allow me to explain:
My body produces the kidney disease I have called FSGS. So apparently, no matter what, my body would somehow destroy the transplanted kidney. Their goal for me, is to wait a couple years, see if any progress has been made concerning my disease, and then go for a transplant. It's a double edge sword. I say no, but then it might be couple of years later (or longer) till I get another shot at a transplant. I say yes, it could end up lasting months, or years. It's always a matter of luck. That's what sucks about having FSGS. Anyway, back to the subject at hand: Why not get tattoos? It's not going anywhere near my fistula arm, I will look for a place that can accommodate me and the needs for ink, and I honestly will be careful. It's almost like at times, they want to scare me into thinking that tattoo parlors are scary places full of bikers, junkies, criminals, etc etc.
"What kind of ink would you get" you're probably all asking yourself? Well, I have a few ideas what I would want. A shamrock is definitely one because of my Irish heritage among other things. A Sega logo (maybe the dreamcast logo as well if I'm feeling up too it.) Possibly something that shows my love for Culinary Arts? Maybe comic book mementos like Captain America's shield or Green Lantern's power ring? Again, I have a few ideas, but I'll decide on something once I A) Have a job! And B) Can afford it.
Random Thoughts: I would love to make some shrimp tacos or even shrimp scampi
~ I find it almost impossible to get awesome Mexican food that's somehow low in salt. If anyone knows a place in NJ to get it, please hook me up.
~ Trader Joe's is probably my favorite supermarket. It's small, but has just about everything I could want/need
~ To go with my previous comment, Westfield is my favorite small town to visit. It's so sexy, and has quite a few awesome stores. Coolvines, William and Sonoma, and so many fine restaurants that it's impossible to choose
~ How is it I get along better with people older than me most of the time than those who are my age
~ Except for my girlfriend
And with that, it's music time! To close this entry out, I present to you: NEW COLDPLAY!
