Louisiana Journey (Part IV)

By
My journey to Louisiana is finally over. I’m home in Maryland now, where I’ve longed to be since the day my grandmother died… I feel a relief. However, I am missing Louisiana a great deal… the comfort and freedom you experience down there far outdoes Maryland.

I still think about my grandparents often as well… being back here and away from Louisiana makes me miss them a little bit more, but it was nice to finally get whatever closure we could, and spreading their ashes brought an incredible relief that they both promised would come when it happened.

I think I also have greater opportunity to refocus my life on what I want to do and where I want/need to be. The time I spent with my grandparents, I learned how to focus on my dreams and goals, and shove my way through respectfully to grab ‘em and take sole possession of it all.

So I’m officially closing the Louisiana chapter in my life, and focusing on this next chapter, wherever it may begin to lead me.

Tattoos And The Idiots Who Have Them

By
More and more in recent weeks, I’ve found myself entirely too devoted to bashing tattoos. I’ve got no problems with people getting tattoos, so long as they actually have some kind of meaning to the person other than “I paid for it” or “it’s on me now so that’s what it means to me” or “it looked awesome”. More and more I see people tattooing the most random things to their body, most people covering their body with the nonsense… and more and more, I’ve found myself entirely too devoted to bashing tattoos. Thank a friend via Twitter recently for showing me a picture of some idiot tattooing stars up and down the side of his face. This began my rant against face tattoos. If you’re in a profession or religion where it’s deemed appropriate, fine… tribal tattoos don’t necessarily cause this reaction for me. I also would never have the balls to call Mike Tyson a fool for tattooing his face. But if you’re just a run-of-the-mill Joe… you shouldn’t be tattooing your face with anything.
