I’m inside the internets, y’all!
Hello! I'm TJ and this is my blog. The picture is a joke, get it? Because I'm INSIDE the INTERNET?I'm 30 years old and I live in Arizona with my husband and our two big dogs. I've been married for just over a year, and we have a 7 month old daughter named Penelope. You can do the math. It's okay. We don't mind.
Read my stuff. You'll like it.
I know that at some point, this section of my site will be out of date. I promise you in advance, I'm aware of that.
LOOK AT THIS.
I got your Penny right here.

Judging by the pictuer BRK threw up on his sight you don’t look like a mean person at all. Maybe one of those people that are refferenced as “Cute” until people get to know you and suddenly decide that you are much like the attack rabit from Monty Python’s Quest for the Holy Grail. You know, the one everyone thinks is just a small, cute, fuzzy and harmless bunny rabit until it leaps for their throat. And who thinks having tattoos makes you mean? Or even that each one over the first obviously makes you that much worse. Don’t people realize that size DOES matter? I have three; two about 4 inches in diameter, and one that’s about 12 x 16. Does this make me the personification of evil? No. Did it freak the hell out of my kndergarten teacher of a mother the first time she saw them? Oh My God, YES!! But I’m not mean because I have tattoos, nor do I have tattoos because I am mean. I have tattoos because I wanted them. Every just thinks I’m mean till they get to know me, then they realize that the tattoos are just a pointless distraction. Kinda like finding out the guy that’s about to carve your heart out with a spoon is going to kick you in the knee afterwards.
Whoops, hijacked your comments for a little soap-boxing, sorry.

Yes, having tattoos makes you mean, it’s in the ink they use, 100% pure mean and red dye #3.
Look at the bones man, look at the bones!
And yes, your coworker, is a wuss.

“Momma says that tattoos are the devil”. I really wish I could do my stellar Bobby Boucher impression. Apparently your co-worker has been raised by Mrs. Boucher. I have seen some wicked tattoos that I could see giving a wrong impression, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that the person is evil. Tell your co-worker that you voodoo too :) That’ll really freak them out!
“Well, that’s no ordinary rabbit. That’s the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on.”
“You tit! I soiled my armor I was so scared!”
hehe, classic movie!
Oh, and watch out for Holy Hand Grenades!

Damn, tats will give the vibe that you are mean? I need to get a tat so that people will stop comming up to me thinking I am the helpful person that I come off to be, but in reality I hate everyone. Im getting a tattoo this weekend.

Would it be worth it to go all biker-chick on her and come to work wearing leather with too many buckles and whatnot? And a do-rag. Maybe on the arm of some big fellow with a handlebar mustache.

I have to laugh at that reaction. I mean, really, what is this, 1987 or 2007? My cousin the accountant has two tattoos and a navel ring, and is only frightening when she’s studying for midterms and finals. Tattoos may be reflections of your personality, but their mere existence does not denote a negative one.
