Well, I survived it! AND I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't lie, it was painful at first, especially the lines. The coloring wasn't bad at all. But I just kept thinking about the end result! My friend went with me, and she, I and the tattoo artist talked about travels, politics, his daughter, and about his experiences as a tattoo artist! This guy was awesome!

He made a drawing from 3 different pics that I took in, and he got it dead on with what I wanted. We just really had to discuss colors, and that was it.

I was nervous as I waited, and I realized that I was pacing! Once we got in the room, I realized that my hands were practically wringing wet! But once he started, I was better and soon relaxed.

We got some pictures, but they are on my friends camera and once she gets them downloaded, I will post on here. Hopefully that can happen yet today.
