"" just like a tattoo, i'll always have you ""

doing: getting caught up on my shows. right now, The Gates.
feeling: sore but really good!


as you all know i've been pining over my tattoo for months now. and last night was THE night! i was nervous and scared and excited.

Ben came with, he got his first tattoo on his wrist. his name in binary code - which is a combination of 1's and 0's. and while it sounds a little on the nerdy side, if you know Ben you know that it fits him just right! it looks really cool and i think he's really happy with it!

then it was my turn! it took about 3 hours to do what i have done. we didn't leave the tattoo shop until about 10:30. the only reason i didn't want to finish was because i was getting antsy..... and, well, it hurt! now i didn't go into this thinking a rib tattoo wouldn't hurt.. but i don't think i was quite prepared. it hurts. just let me tell you, unless you are really truly set on a rib tattoo then don't do it!! haha! i'm 100% set on mine, otherwise i'd have made him quit after the outline was done!!

either way, i loved it even when he only had the outline done! i'm just in love with this tattoo! it makes it even better that i designed it myself and that it truly means something to me personally! so the coloring and the bottom part of the cross is all done, in about 3 weeks i'll go back and get the rest finished.
