Tattoo #14
So, somewhere in December while I was busy being astonishingly depressed, I got my fourteenth tattoo.
I was feeling particularly lonely, down, very uneasy about pretty much everything, kind of just staying “okay” as best I could from one day to another. The worst part was that I didn’t see many reasons why “tomorrow” would be any better. That is a really horrible sensation. I felt exactly like this tattoo and the song from which it came…
It’s my third Nirvana related tattoo, it’s my least happy tattoo, but it’s honest.

I quite sad to you continue to choose to wallow in your vat of self-pity. I feel dejected, miserable, bored, and anxious, BUT I fight it with whatever little might I have every day! It is not easy. I do look long and hard at what is good and I can always find at least one thing. Mike you can too.
Trevor, I’m really glad you know so much about me and the lack of fight in me. Your daily battle is a personal inspiration. Thank you.
Sarcasm, self-pity, seasoned with salty smarminess…Go mike go!
It is weird to me that people keep selectively choosing your “melancholic” posts to tell you how 100% negative you are. As if there aren’t other posts.
Look, Trevor, I’m personally going through a rather dark period, lots of changes and losses. It’s been difficult, I’m not perfect, and I KNOW that, really. I cope by writing whatever’s in my head, happy, melancholy, astonishingly dark, whatever, so long as it’s honest. I don’t ask for pity or sympathy, I don’t ask for anything. We all cope differently. I definitely don’t go around telling people how to live or feel.
Jennifer, you understand, I appreciate that.
Sad to see that you don’t want help or to learn anything from anybody that may have gone through or is still going through a dark period themselves. Just trying to let you know what I do to snap the F out it! I too have very dark, painfully sad, woefully melancholy thoughts, but when they keep dragging me to the depths of the gutter I do try to fight them and put them aside, so I can come out the other side. Oops sorry! I did it again. Just ignore my insight.
Trevor, you’re talking under the assumption that I don’t do anything positive, that I simply sit at home with my 27 cats, gently sobbing. That is totally wrong.
Second, your “insight” seems to involve you telling me that I pity myself and what-not.

I know that horrible sensation, I’m feeling it right you.. I know what you mean by saying you couldn’t find reasons why tomorrow would be better, and it particularly sucks..I just feel sooo lonely and down, and I honestly don’t know why, but I just can’t find anything good about this life in this shallow world we’re living in… So anyway, I know THAT feeling, and it’s great that you found such a cool way to express the way you felt 🙂 you know, sometimes is better to be a bit negative than being a positive douche..So you rock man
