tattuesday

remember tattoomorrow? well, today was tattuesday. after letting months pass since i had worked on my design, i suddenly got inspired last week. i finished it, e-mailed it to the joint, and made my appointment with gunnar when he called. it took almost 2 hours, but it's beautiful. if i had a host, i'd post it...but it's a capricorn glyph in a circle of red-fading-to-orange-fading-to-yellow--nestled in one side of a black design that reminds me of the way that the smoke from a clove cigarette rose into the tree-filtered sunlight as i twirled it around in my fingers, one lazy saturday afternoon in my backyard.

now, i have to plan for tattoo-tres. because--like flowers in a vase, gifts that i give, and the little charms on my silver necklace--i don't like stuff in even numbers.

by the way, check out mention of gunnar's recent "winter project" on
mtv.com and a shot of it on the nfg web site. he's famous. :)
