Happy Cinco de Mayo!!!

Ah, Cinco de Mayo, a wonderful day to celebrate and eat all sorts of yummy food. If there is one thing that Cinco de Mayo brings to my mind other than food, its sugar skulls. Here's a few super cool ones I've found around the way

This beauty is by lolaboyd33. I absolutely love it. It makes me wish even more that I could actually draw.

I am also enthralled by this sugar skull by jaymeist. I especially like her "Bride of Frankenstein" hair.

I only recently learned that these type of skulls are called sugar skulls, never in a million years would I think that they had a name. Yep, its true, you can learn stuff from watching L.A. Ink. Also if I were

a.) brave
b.) not deathly frightened of needles and would pass out
c.) and family and friends be sorely disappointed

I would totally get some sort of small tattoo. Girls, do you remember heading to Vegas for Spring Break 2000 (oh yeah that's high school) and talking about getting toe ring tattoos that said "Spring Break 2000"? I must say, I am very glad that I was not 18 yet, I don't think that my toes are big enough to wrap that long of a tattoo around my toe and I'm 100% sure I would regret that now.

Next post, the nose piercing I'm getting this weekend....ha ha just kidding.
