Billiards and Tattoos

by The Urban Cowboy on October 18, 2009 · 13 comments

The Urban Cowboy was enjoying a game of pool at one of his favorite spots when someone caught his attention. Meet Trinket, and her Tree of Life…I think, tattoo.

For some strange reason, whenever The Urban Cowboy shoots pool, women like nothing more than to interrupt the game by laying on the table.

I don’t know if this is an attempt to break my concentration, or my pool shooting skills are so off that they bore those who watch to sleep.

Do you have a tattoo, or have you always wanted one? Let us know what kind and where!

–>That tree looks a little lifeless if you ask me. haha…
Unlike every other Gen X’r I know, no tattoos for me. However, if I were to get one it would definitely be a shamrock.

I do!! I have a Longhorn Bull’s skull with the Texas flag on the skull, on my back! And I have a flower on the top of my foot by my toes, going to be changing that one a bit I don’t really like it being just a single big flower :)

Yes. I’ve got a sunflower on top of my foot that I got in my early twenties. A butterfly I got on my back in my late twenties and 4 stars on my stomach in my mid thirties. One star (the largest) representing myself, and then one for my husband, my son and my daughter. Each one in their favorite color. Can’t say I’ll be laying on a pool table anytime soon though- those days are LONG gone! ;)

Is having a woman laying on your pool table that bad? I mean really, it could be worse, they could be avoiding you right? You already know about my 2 little tats but I’m going to take a pic of my belly button ring soon, promise. It’s not looking pissed off and newly pierced any more so this is a better time for a photo.
BTW, if you’re really looking for a way to pick up women drive a Jeep. Preferably with the top down. Freaking chick magnet, they hit on me even and I don’t play on that team….

I love tattoos. I have one on my back. I can’t watch LA Ink ’cause it always makes me want to run out and get another. But the cost… yikes. I’m sure I will eventually. Of Stitch. (Yes, the Disney character.)

I am so NOT a tattoo person. I could go on and on about all the reasons why I’m not a tattoo person. Really good reasons. Lots of them.

A couple of weeks ago, I got one. On my wrist, no less. It’s out there for everyone to see. Although, I have to say, I’ve had only one person comment on it, so perhaps it’s only really obvious to me.

I got it because I wanted a constant reminder, a trigger, of something that has significance to me. It’s a bible reference “Psalm 46:10″. It’s been doing what I’d intended it to do, and more. Although, I confess, I suffered some serious regrets in the days following my decision to get inked. I’m growing into it and I like it more & more every day.

And you…? Do you have any tattoos, young man?

Women just drape themselves across the pool table? I don’t think you are boring them- thats for sure.

I don’t have any tattoos but I love them. I love good tattoos I should say. I have a weakness for old sailor type tattoos. Someday I’ll get one… I think.

I have a tatoo on my ankle. I would like to get another one on my back or shoulder someday. But my other half hates tatoo’s, so it might not happen. I got my first one without telling him, I suppose I could go that route again! LOL!
