Have I told this story before?
My BFF when I was fifteen had wanted a tattoo forever. Since we were going to BFF, we decided to get matching tats, on our feet. We went to a local shady place since we were underage. My friend didn't have enough money, so I went first. Then when we went back the following week to get hers, the place had been busted for doing underage tattoos.
So I, the one who never wanted a tat, have one, and she doesn't. Needless to say, we haven't spoken in years.
It's completely meaningless to me - it's a chinese dragon I picked off the wall. And because it's on my foot which gets a lot of chaffing and sun, it looks terrible. I asked someone if they could cover it maybe ten years ago, and he said it was too blurry.
I keep sort of meaning to get it redone. I think the dragon, which was mostly blue, could be redrawn as ocean waves, and I love dolphins, so I can imagine an anklet with dolphins above the water. I don't really know how to get started finding a good artist here, and getting the initial drawing done. So hey, if you guys know anyone who could help me out in SF, let me know!
