Synesthesia Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I guess this is awesome, but I can't help but feel a little shitty about it. My parents are moving into a bigger house and renting out part of it to my fiance and I. Basically about 1/3 of the house is an addition that's its own apartment-like area, and we have shared spaces like a basement and family room. It's good in the sense that we're saving tons of money and I'll be close to my parents (my mom has back problems and needs some help whenever it's acting up). It's bad in the sense that I guess I feel like a failure, like we couldn't cut it out on our own and so we're moving back in with my parents. I guess it's not quite as bad as the stereotypical "living in my parents' basement" scenario, but I still feel kind of down about the whole thing.

SStu Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 @pidjones lol, I had to look at that 1st picture twice. At 1st I thought that green chair in the background was a child seat attached to the back of the bike. Whew. Then I had to look at the 2nd picture twice. 🙂 pidjones 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/2521-post-awesome-things-you-have-been-doing-recently/?page=76#findComment-139669 Share on other sites More sharing options...

tcgjake Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Took my second trip to India a couple weeks back. A truly amazing country. Any must visit tattooers in India? Specifically in Tamil Nadu?

pidjones Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 I've not noticed that tattoos are that popular there. My hosts were amazed by mine, wanted to know if they would rub off, what the ment, etc. Very accepting, though. Now, they are rural Indians, though fairly well educated. I would think Northern India would have more tattoo shops. Tamil Nadu and Andre Pradesh are beautiful areas. I used to visit friends up near the border between the two. Could see Andre from their roof. Tried to stay out of Madras as much as possible. That's probably where you'd find them. Plenty of good artists there, just don't know how many have adopted the medium.

tcgjake Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 (edited) Interesting. I didn’t think so but noticed a couple tattoo stalls on the beach which got me curious. Didn’t see any physical shops though. Edited December 2, 2018 by tcgjake Fixed a typo.

Gingerninja Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 @SStu @pidjones Yes, yes, YES! It's going to be interesting, no doubt. I will say that the whole hearing aid thing is such a racket. No way to get real pricing up front, insurance doesn't cover them and it's a real PITA to get setup but I am crossing my fingers it will be worth it. 🙂 SStu and scottyg 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/2521-post-awesome-things-you-have-been-doing-recently/?page=76#findComment-141025 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pidjones Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Combination awesome and shitty things this weekend. Shitty that we had the funeral for my 1st cousin that has had a huge part in my life. Awesome that so many cousins from all over gathered to say goodbye. Shitty that it's about the only time that I see them - Jones reunions always seem to have one of us horizontal in a box. Awesome that it was in our home town and the church that I grew up in - hadn't seen many of these folks in years, either. Also awesome that my winter motorcycle project - a '79 CB750F rat bike - is finally on the road. Took it out for a short ride yesterday and it ran, handled, braked, etc. great! Now to find a buyer for it so that I can get next winter's project bike.
