I love wearing my boots with dresses! These black one's are so soft and cozy on the inside, like slippers. I could live in them!

One Day I Came Home and I Found This.

And if that's not a first born, I don't know what is. He told me he was getting all ready for school for the next day.

Me and My Tattoo.

So last night I had a nightmare the tattoo became alive and grew and took over my entire back. It was horrible and I woke up with a dull, aching headache. I thought getting the tattoo would let me sleep peacefully again, but obviously not. However, this morning when I checked her out in the mirror, there she was, and she even seemed smaller than yesterday, which is good. I was having some serious buyers remorse. I needed about ten shoulders to sob into (really, I haven't cried, but I still kinda want to).
As I write this, I keep looking at it, and it is pretty. Just a little edgy and unpredictable, like I said (hmmmm, sounds like ME!)
We will just have to get used to each other, me and this tattoo.
See the circle at the bottom of the flower/peacock thing? My original plan was to pierce that with a pretty little blue jewel. However, seeing as how I have freaked out about the tattoo, I think I might just slow my unpredictable, impulsive ass down and wait a while.
I really tried my hardest not to be impulsive about this. I looked at thousands of tattoos. I looked at designs on my clothes and on my throw pillows. I brought in some ideas. But then when the guy showed me this, sketched in black and white, I was just like, Yes! DO it!
And that's just me.
So in a way we are perfect for each other, me and my tattoo--even if she is keeping me up at night.

The Tattoo!

It's feeling a little better today. It's a little edgy and unpredictable, (like, what is that thing?) and now that the adrenaline has worn off, I am freaking out. It's so BIG! But I am letting myself get to know it, warm up to it, grow into it. I swear to God the stencil did not look that big. I am so freak'en crazy.
Also, I just realized today is Friday the 22cnd and not Monday the 25th! Silly! So anyway I guess I just got a little practice in for the Fall Fashion week! And thank you Jill for helping me out with the picture issue, duh!
