there's one woman at work that has tons of them but to be honest,she was in
the military, and that was followed by ten years of bipolar disability. 
impossible to tell what she has on her legs

it's all just ugly green

but when i was in another city, there was a judge female btw whose 18 year
old daughter bought her a xmas present of a tattoo

the judge got a blue kachina figure on her right shoulder

she was almost 60 and pretty fat it really was no big deal except this was
early 90s
