Thunder + Tattoos.

There's a storm going on right now, but I unplugged my laptop so I'm okay. My shoulder is pretty sore right now because I got my first tattoo yesterday. Yay for body mods!!! I'm pretty excited to get my second tat already, which is going to be on my lower back. It's a treble clef + bass clef coming together in a heart, and it's going to say "Mon Premier Amour", which is "My First Love" in French. Music is such a huge part of my life, so to have a tat dedicated to that will be pretty damn amazing. The tat that I have now is a butterfly and two purple flowers. My BFF Amanda drew the original design, then Bob @ Stormi Steel redrew it, did the stencil, and all was said and done within two hours [EDIT: Butterflies also have huge personal meaning to me, always kind of have. And now moreso, ever since I read "The Patron Saint of Butterflies". Just for the record]. I absolutely love it, and I swear I'll never go anywhere else besides Stormi Steel for mods. I got my lip pierced there + it's beyond all expectations, and this tattoo has given me even more faith in the guys there. Plus, the prices are really reasonable [ex: my tat is about 3 inches x 3 inches, with a lot of shading + detail, and it only costed me 120 bucks, plus tip. My mom got hers @ Marc's, + it's tiny without a ton of detail, and it costed her 85. Hers is really nice, but I've got a special place in my heart for Stormi] and for a girl on a budget, that's good.

So yay for tattoos! I can't wait for number 2.

Bye,
Ker
