whoa...

wow, I just read an older post that I had written about getting a tattoo...the foresight! Who knew.

To the pain!


I have been thinking a lot lately about a new tattoo. I know, I know, people say they're addicting (they are) but I have been doing a lot of soul searching and debating and I've finally decided to get another. Anyone who knows me, like, REALLY knows me, is aware of how much I love english, reading, literature, poetry, etc. I sometimes wonder why I wasted all that time and money on my "degree" in something different when I really just should have been a teacher. (NOW I figure that out) So, through all of this, I decided to get the last stanza of my favorite poem tattoed on myself. It was the first poem I ever remember reading/studying and it has stuck with me throughout the years. Also, I read a deeper meaning into it which I won't delve into right now. Anyway, the only spot on my body that I wanted another tattoo was my ribs. It's nicely discreet and no one knows it's there unless I personally show them, or I'm in a bathing suit. Which is fine. The only thing wrong with this logic is that the ribs are easily the MOST PAINFUL SPOT to get a tattoo. True. haha, but I did it and here's proof!
