tattoo

on sunday may 31st. i got a tattoo. my first tattoo. it's a fern on my left ribcage. i expected that it would hurt like hell. but it wasn't that bad. even on my ribcage which is practically just a thin layer of skin and all bone at this point. it still didn't hurt that bad. then again i also have a pretty high tolerance for pain. anyways. i absolutely LOVE it. i was glowing after it was done. Ferns can grow most anywhere...

"Fern species live in a wide variety of habitats, from remote mountain elevations, to dry desert rock faces, to bodies of water or in open fields. Ferns in general may be thought of as largely being specialists in marginal habitats, often succeeding in places where various environmental factors limit the success of flowering plants... There are four particular types of habitats that ferns are found in: moist, shady forests; crevices in rock faces, especially when sheltered from the full sun; acid wetlands including bogs and swamps; and tropical trees, where many species are epiphytes..."

and on my body.

thanks melissa! why are you too chicken? is it because you think it will be too painful? it wasn't that bad. i'd do it again. ;)
