so back in april i got my nose pierced...
well this weekend...
i got a tattoo. :)
yes. it's large. i know.Trish and I took a trip back to Nashville to hear the band, Josh Garrett and the Bottomline.
While we were there we decided to get tattoos... it was totally a spur of the moment thing. I have been talking about possibly getting one for a while and I already had a few ideas of what I wanted. I showed Jay (my tattoo artist) a picture of what I had found online and he said, "can I draw you something better?"
:)
so, he did...
on my back...
with a marker...
lol

me excited... thinking "getting a tattoo isn't so bad"
the finished drawing
me gripping that chair for dear life
it hurt! i'm not gonna lie to you!thinking, "wow... maybe it's not as easy as i thought it would be!"
it hurt so much that i cried!AND i told Jay it was worse than child birth. lol
ok, looking back on it... just based on the pain factor... it rivals child birth because you can't get an epidural for a tattoo! :)
(it's not red like that anymore...)i wanted a tattoo. the opportunity presented itself. i did it. :)
and...
I LOVE IT!
and...
I LOVE IT!

Wow!! It's really pretty!! Sorry you had to endure all the pain... but your tattoo person did a good job!!!
Oh My Word! You are brave, woman. I want to cry just looking at you getting it :) I'm such a wuss...
WOW! The tatt it AWESOME! I have one on my low back, and that area is MUCh less sensative than right there by your neck (on your spine?). I guess mine was on my "tickle spot" because I laughed the entire time - except when he was doing the shadow....That was a little like scratching a sunburn.
It looks really great (dare I say, sexy) on you! Congrats! :o)
I can't imagine getting a tattoo that size as a first tattoo. The ONLY reason I didn't get a tattoo when I turned 18 is because I didn't want to be a little old lady with a faded, stretched-out tattoo. But I bet the upper back stays pretty firm, so you should be good to go! ;)
It's beautiful! But it looks very painful. You are brave.
Man you're BRAVE! I cried getting my ears pierced, then the second set I cried before they even did it because i knew it was going to hurt... I was 17 the first time and 18 the second... do you think I should get a tatt?
It's a pretty design!
i like that design - very cool!
i could never get one because of the pain factor - you are VERY brave!
I have to admit, even though I like your design, I would never get a tatt. I thought you might be consoled to know that when one of my brothers got a tattoo - just "Comanche" on his wrist, he passed out and came to when it was all over. That's a wuss for you.
