my verson: cincinnati ink

i ventured over to covington this evening to check out Mothers Tattoo... and i think i'm finally ready to do it. Everything about getting a tattoo is so 'not like me'-- it's permanent, what if i need a job that doesn't allow tattoos, it hurts, tattoo parlors always seem so dark and dreary inside... and yet, that's why i find this adventure so enlightening. it's purely an act of the here and now (minus the years i've wanted a tattoo but always talked myself out of one and the months i've spent working on exactly what i want and where to put it)... i used to worry if the in-laws would disapprove, or someone else wouldn't like the design i created... and i just don't care anymore. :D
that's the image i quickly sketched to take with me when i went. We adjusted a couple things and i like it even more!

side note: watched 'greenberg' with jon tonight-- personally, i thought it was awful! glad i only spent $1 at Redbox for it, but hopefully i'll spare someone else the misery, maybe?
