Behr Pick: Tattoo Tuesday

Behr Pick: Tuesday Bear

There's nothing better than cuddling a bear. And this one is very cuddly looking. I'd love to lay my head on his belly and just drift away.

Have you ever had one of those moments where a smell triggers a memory? I had that yesterday afternoon as I was walking through the Red Line station. That's our Los Angeles subway, BTW. Two young Latin men walked passed me; they both had on jeans, plaid shirts, and trendy haircuts. At first sight I thought "gay." And as I passed them I could smell their cologne overlaid with cigarette smoke and with a hint of sex. I'm almost positive it was Drakkar Noir. It totally took me back to my 20's when I used to wear cologne and smoke too much at the clubs while dancing the night away.

Monday is over and it turned out to be not that bad. Let's hope today flies by too.

BEHR HUGS

Behr Pick: Tattoo Tuesday

Did you enjoy your Martin Luther King, Jr. Day? I did...I slept in, played on the computer, worked in the flowerbeds, saw the doctor, and burned popcorn.

Okay maybe that last one was unnecessary but I did and the house still stinks of it. And yes, I microwaved a lemon. But I think that only helped the microwave not the house. Thankfully I have scented candles like every good gay.

It's back to work. I originally was going to take today off as my New Year's float day but something came up at the end of last week so I cancelled it. I'll probably take it in a week to make another short week.

May the rest of the week be quick and painless. BEHR HUGS!

Behr Pick: Tuesday Tattoo

A while back I started waffling back and forth as to whether I found tattoos sexy or not. I started thinking that ink has become commonplace and uninteresting; tattoos are becoming commonplace and uninteresting, especially among male gay porn stars. Take a look: those who are getting the black tats in designs that cover their shoulders, chests, arms, backs, etc look like every one else's. The uniqueness and fascination is waning.

Then I see someone like this guy who has color designs covering major guns. THIS tattooed guy is hot and sexy. His ink is unique, beautiful...it's art. It's possible that his tats tell a story or represent something symbolic to him. THAT is what body art is supposed to be about.

And so my final conclusion is: if the tattoos are unique, in color, tell a story, and/or are artfully rendered, then they tend to make the wearer sexy and hot and woofy. But if the tat designs are commonplace and boring, for example, blocks of black ink, then they just becomes banal and the sexiness and allure dissipate.

Just my opinion on this tattoo Tuesday. BEHR HUGS

Thank goodness Monday is over...and it was just as horrible as I anticipated.

My morning train was late.
My iPod died; I forgot to charge it.
My boss changed our meeting to a working lunch meeting.
I had to buy my own lunch.
My email program at work crashed.

I didn't get a chance to prepare for the 3-day class that starts tomorrow.
I ended up staying late.
The evening subway was late.
The evening train was late.
There was nothing on TV when I finally got home.

So I'm happy it's Tuesday.

And Tattoo Tuesday at that! Isn't this a great pic? When I first saw it, this adorable man's eyes totally caught my attention; then I started examining the rest of him...and the colorful tats are just incredible. I can only imagine the patience and dedication the sessions took.

So here's to a terrific Tattoo Tuesday! It's got to be better than yesterday, right? BEHR HUGS

Behr Pick: Tattoo Tuesday

Today is my first day back to work in a little over a week. I'm not looking forward to it. I shouldn't complain since my time off falls under the "sick pay" category and so I receive full pay and benefits for the time off. And I don't have to go in right away; I have another follow-up appointment with the doctor. But I know what's waiting for me and I just have no desire to deal with it. (What do you think of my petulant child imitation? LOL)

I suspect I found today's picture on Male Tattoo and Piercing (NSFW). The time involved must have been quite the commitment, for both the inker and the inkee. I think it's incredible. I'd like to see the front of this guy. I'm thinking pierced nipples and chest tats. Grrrr.

Here's hoping the week flies by! BEHR HUGS

Behr Pick: Tattoo Tuesday

This is Andrew McLaren, a minor actor who has incredible tattoos and a fantastic body. I just hope he keeps up with his fitness routine to maintain the inked design, especially over his guns and chest. I've not seen any of his films and I'm not sure I remember how I came across him. Check out his IMDB profile here, where there are more pictures.

I like the second picture best although it's not HD sharp...it looks like he's let his facial hair and body fur grow out a little. I like. I like a lot.

Last night I stopped by Lens Crafters and dropped my glasses off so the new lenses could be put in. I went back over and picked them up; the prescription didn't change a lot, I don't think, but things do seem a bit sharper. The bifocal part is way sharper. I anticipate a headache later today.

I can't wait for my new glasses to get in, which I ordered as a backup pair. They pretty much like the ones I have but that was the point. I don't understand why they didn't come in at the same time as the lenses for my current frames but whatever.

That's about all I have for now. BEHR HUGS!!

Tattoo Tuesday: Atlas

Tattoos are very personal and for many people the design has a special or personal meaning. I'm sure are those who just get a tattoo (barbed wire bicep band) just to fit in with the crowd and those folks probably get tattoo remorse.

I like this tattoo: a bearish Atlas holding up the world, which is surrounded by the words Trust, Respect, Compassion, Integrity. Definitely words to live by. The tat is different and meaningful. And the detail is incredible. Click it to see it in a bit more detail.

Oh and this tattoo adorns Jon, who, although scowling a bit, is rather cute!

Hope everyone has a terrific Tuesday! BEHR HUGS!!

Behr Pick: Tattoo Tuesday

Since it's summer, I thought this gentleman was the perfect selection for Tattoo Tuesday. He's tattooed, muscular, furry, handsome....and at the beach! Now I admit I'm not crazy about the side tattoo and chest tattoo...but I can easily overlook those for the sheer fact that the rest of him looks so good.

Monday went well. For some reason I felt good and my mood was lighter than it has been. I'm hoping it's a continuing trend.

Here's to a terrific Tuesday full of BEHR HUGS!!

Moody Tuesday

I'm in the mood for love.

Okay, maybe just sex.

I think if I looked like either of these two, accomplishing that would be easy-peasy. Not that I don't have my admirers, I do, believe it or not. But they all live in another state. Or country.

So what's on YOUR mind on this Tuesday? Leave a comment and let us know.

BEHR HUGS!!

Tuesday Daddies

Each is unique in his own way. And I wouldn't kick a single one out of bed.

I've been trying to make better food choices and control my portion size. I really need to lose weight and I'm starting out slow. I'm gearing up to start being more active: walking along the Greenway Trail or perhaps going back to the gym. I blew it last night though; I ate a whole Tombstone pizza. It wouldn't have been so bad had I not added another layer of pepperoni. Ugh. I just love food.

Blue Tuesday

I've been spending my morning going through some junk in my spare bedroom and tossing a lot of crap out. Although it's a beautiful day out and I am being productive, I'm feeling a bit blue. I think it's a combination of feeling overwhelmed with stuff I need/want/should do, feeling a tad lonely, frustration over my PC/laptop situation, and coming across photos of my ex. *sigh*

I remembered a little while ago that Glee comes out on DVD today so in a short while I'm showering and heading off to Target. BEHR HUGS!!

Tuesday Fur

Since most of the country is experiencing cold temperatures, here are ten furry bears to keep you warm. Cuddling with a furball is definitely a favorite pastime of mine.

BEHR HUGS!!

Tuesday Tattoos

Pick your favorite and if - and only if - you've been good, perhaps Santa will leave him under your tree. Be sure to explain just how you've been good and be prepared to provide references.

BEHR HUGS!!
