Yesterday I woke up still drunk from the bff's birthday party the night before, and I had less than an hour to shower, get ready, get food, and get money before I went to see Henry at The Skull and Sword. I was hungover as shit, had bubble guts, and barely ate. I was scared that I'd either yack, shit on myself, or pass the fuck out under the needle. Luckily neither happened. Instead, I came out with this beauty of a tattoo which of course symbolizes my love for writing.I got this piece done as well as a touch up on another tat. Under the skillful hand of the Henn-dogs, I was finished in about an hour and a half at the most - although it felt like an eternity. I guess that's what happens when it feels like someone is dragging a knife clear across ur stomach. Whoever says tattoos don't hurt is a goddamn liar. This was probably my most painful one to date (next to my foot) but well worth it. I can't wait to see how it looks once it heals and the lines are cleaner and shading deepens.
For those of u who live in the Bay Area, that want quality work done, I highly suggest Henry at the Skull and Sword. Sure, I wanted to punch him in the face as he was working on me but he's a cool dude when he's not sticking needles in my ribs. And most of all he's an AMAZING artist!

aw damn! now i gotta think of another tattoo lmaooooo - been trying to get a quill on my forearm for the longest time, just no time and no money - WAH - looks GRRRRRREAT! (tony the TOIGAH!)
Dope.
Where is it located exactly?
And Abi, it is time to wife her (writing). You are wrong for keeping her as a side chick. Fate is telling you that that other chick should be relegated to the "mistress" role in your life (cannot call her the other word ;).
I have seriously been contemplating getting a tattoo lately but...
1. My mother would never approve. And even though I am *muffled sound* years old... I still respect her enough to listen to her.
2. Technically, I am not supposed to get one.
But hmmm...
(Check yo email yo!)
yosh - just get it! fuck it! i'm firm believer in getting something if u REALLY want it even if hella other people have it.
7 - it's on the right side of my ribs and goes a little bit towards my stomach toward the bottom.
