New ink

As I watched Martine get her new tattoo, my itch to get inked again only got stronger. Today I have in to that pull. I had asked Matt to design something tribal for my shoulder. I wanted something all black this time. The first drawing didn't resonate with me and I asked him to change it. I was happy and relieved when I saw the second drawing. I loved it immediately! I was afraid he was going to ask me to reschedule, but he said he still had time to do it. Yay!!! I love the way it looks on my skin. Is it bad that I already want more? :) Some of the pain is actually relaxing in a Zen kind of way. I wanted to fall asleep a couple of times. Then there was the annoying pain, the kind that made me want to punch Matt in the face to make him stop. (Of course I would never do that...at least not to him) He does a great job! If you live near Indianapolis and want to get a tattoo, go see Matt at
Metamorphosis in Broad Ripple.

Ok, back to lounging with my new ink. Might be time for some ice cream too. It helps the healing process, ya know.

Peace on ya, peeps.
