Le tattoo

Finally healed and ready to be photographed. I've been patiently waiting, it's hard to enjoy something that you never see. I find myself backwards in mirrors several times a day just to get a glimpse of it. I love it! I am completely and whole-heartedly smitten. If you're near Kansas City and tattoo craving, Roman from Timeless did a fantastic job. One hundred times recommended.Untitled Now onto my tiny rant because every post has one of those. Now that a tattoo has found its way on my body, everyone with a mouth became an expert on What you should and shouldn't put on your body. Everything from You should add... to That looks like shit. And I feel like there is a chorus of tattooed folk saying "Welcome to the world". I don't mind opinions, and the criticism doesn't bother me, but when did people get the nerve to think their opinion matters on a topic that has nothing to do with them? I've had people confront me with reasons why I should get the camera colored, which is tolerable until I hear it several times a week. I feel like I'm yelling, ignore that. My tongue gets sharper in frustrating situations. I'm not turning this tattoo revealing into an angry post, I'm not angry at all. :) Smiley face proves it.
That being said, who knows what I'll add to it in the future. Maybe nothing at all, although I have ideas. I blame that on my immediate desire for another.

  2. oh my goodness, that is just a beautiful tattoo right there. I think I'm too much of a baby and indecisive to get something permanent on my body, but I think that this is just beautiful!
