I got a tattoo!!!!

I've been talking about it for years. I could never find anyone to do it, because of where I wanted it~ on the palm of my right hand. Many artists had their reasons, some were ~ the palm is to hard to retain color, I didn't have any other tattoos and they wouldn't put it in plain view, it would hurt too bad. Well, I finally found someone who understood me. Imagine that...lol. Anyhow, my original idea was to get the globe and have the words "she's got the whole world in her hands." Well, my hand just wasn't' that big...so I settled for just the globe. The saying is so universal everyone knows its meaning. It is kinda hard to see the blue and the green because the picture was taken about 2 hrs. after I got it done. Today the colors are setting more and you can see a distinction. He said I would have to come back and get it touched up from now and then...which is cool.

I was very nervous. I even wore Depends "underwear for the incontinent". I thought it was going to hurt like a B**ch!!! I thought I would cry. Funny thing, he thought I would too. To my surprise, and his, it didn't hurt at all...not even a little. In fact, it kinda felt good. I know, my mom said I was sick and twisted. For now this is all I want...but people say they are addicting...so we'll see. I'll keep you updated. I'll post another picture when it heals up.

Cristi,
They are addicting. Kenny and I got tattoos for our anniversary this year and we are already planning what we are getting next. Where did you get yours done and who did, it looks great for being just having been done.
