Today's adventure had me drive my friend to the tattoo shop. Exciting times as I was looking forward to smelling that sweet aroma of disinfectants, to hear the tantalizing buzz, and the masterpieces permanently inked on skin. Oh how I missed that place.
The last time I witnessed the pain of being stabbed 3000 times a minute for 3 hours by a little hollowed stainless steel needle(s) was a few months ago. Feels like such a long time ago. Still working on my back piece, oh how expensive you are!
The last bit of work done on my back piece. Don't mind the ripped shirt, I wear bad clothes incase it gets stained.
The sweet, sweet titillating sensation of a tattoo is what makes us succumb to the enslavement. Always wanting more, needing more. At least for some of us. 😝
It was nothing less of a tease to bring my friend to the shop. I was happy to go back.
Ok, ok. I'm gonna stop this charade of funny talk.
My friend went back to get some more work done on her tattoo. Some small floral work on her shoulder area only had outlining done the first time. This time was for filling in the details and adding some more flowers and leaves.
As beautiful as this ink is, there is still at least one more hour of work to make it complete. Tattoos take time and lots of money...and also pain management. Honestly though, it's the healing part that's worse.
After wanting to write a post about bringing my friend to get some ink done, it made me realize a contest I did a while back and I thought it could be time to do another round of it.
I love seeing what people have for tattoos and learning what the stories behind them are. And as I have stated before, quite frankly, we love to tell about them and show them off too! I have yet to meet someone who doesn't want to say/show a bit of it.
So how about it?
I would love for you to show me one of your tattoos. Write a post about it and tell us the story behind it. Simple. I would say, share it in the comments section but then you wouldn't get as much as you would if it were a post.
You can also write about all of your tattoos, that would be awesome, but please pick just one that you would like entered in the contest.
Deadline for this contest is after the 7 day mark. Leave the link to your post in the comment section please to make it easier for me to see.
For a prize, I was thinking about 2 steem to the first place. 2nd place will receive 1.75 steem.
**Edited: @paintingangels added 2 Steem towards the prize pool for this contest! Thank you my friend for being so generous and so cool!
