I like monkeys. here's my first tattoo.
took me forever to grow the balls to go through with it, but i finally did it this morning. this little guy has been my IM avatar for quite a while and has seen a lot happen in the past year. he's kind of like an old friend at this point.
i had it done by Erick Lynch at Redemption Tattoo in Cambridge MA. He was great - totally cool guy, very professional, charged me less than he originally quoted, and just made the whole thing a pretty fun experience. It didn't hurt as much as i thought, but i did nearly pass out about 3/4 of the way through. what can i say? apparently i'm a pussy.
i love that it still has the look of the spraypainted graffiti stencil it's based on. i'm very happy with it despite the fact that i was tossing and turning all night, unable to sleep with anticipation/irrational fear. so, tattoo is done, my downstairs apartment is rented, my work situation has finally gone the way I want it to go. now i just need a kick ass girlfriend!

Yeah, it's a full size Prevost bus that's been turned into a rolling castle. It very well may be a band's old bus because it has a mirror on the ceiling. hahaha.
