b's tattoos. sorry about all the tattoo posts....



I probably should've asked B to explain his tattoos since they're you know, his. He got the celtic knot done on his back when he was 18, with his mom's permission. Lucky. In the middle is his our last name, which I blacked out because there are some weird people out there and you just never know (not you guys, just the other weirdos).

The one on his side he got 5 or so years ago and it was done in stages since it's so gigantic. The tree is a money tree, and yes, that's actually a real plant. Although a tree with money on it would be really awesome as well.

The ones on his arm are a very long process. He got them both last year, a few months apart. Because he works in produce, and has for over 14 years, he has a minor bee obsession. Because bees pollinate one out of every three mouthfuls we eat, they're pretty damn important. Without them, it would be much harder to eat the foods we love. Also, B goes by the name B to his friends (not just on this blog because he wants to be anonymous). His plan is to get the bees wrapped around his arm and ending on his back near his celtic knot. Because he is a math major, he is going to have the bees in the Fibonacci sequence (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, .....) I think he also has some plans to turn the celtic knot into a sort of beehive, but he hasn't finalized the design yet.

So there you have it. Our tattoos. I'm thinking of incorporating a (much smaller) bee onto me somewhere to match his without being too gag me matching. Or maybe a really cool flower. I haven't decided. Obviously.

  2. The money tree totally blew my mind. I love it!! I'm not so sure about the bugs though - or 'bees' as you call them - but they're all bugs to me, sorry.

    You guys are suddenly very bad*** to me now that you've shown us all your tattoos :)

  3. Math majors. Figures. ;) Btw, Bee is my first initial, but I didn't want to just use B. And come on, you know you want matching tattoos.

    1. Oh cool! Well I should have been calling him Bee all along then :)

      I really don't want like dorky matching tattoos! Plus, his bees are HUGE and I would want like a really small one or something.

  4. Bad. Ass. My husband hates tattoos, so I'm totally jealous. The bees are one of the most interesting ones I've ever seen - and you should totally get one.

    1. Thanks! I want to, but not a gigantic one like that. I mean, I LOVE them on him. But I would want mine to be more subtle...
