So.. I've been taking this non-fiction writing class online. It's great for me. I never thought I could write (can you believe I almost spelled that right?) non-fiction, due to not really being that much of an expert on one thing, but I am trying. So, when I was generating ideas, I thought of writing one on the idea of tattooing in Oklahoma. It's really viewed by everyone as being illegal, but technically, it is legal. I think tomorrow, since I have the day off, I am going to go to the library and do some research. I'm not really sure about which direction to go with it. The idea of interviewing anyone scares the shit out of me, so I've got to have it all together before I even attempt that. I think I have sort of an advantage with my brother, because if I run into any walls he will be able to offer some good suggestions about where to look. He just left here and suggested that I look up bills or health codes. Sounds like exciting research, right? I've been talking about this idea so much in class and our writing assignments for this week that it would be lethal to not write it.

So, I guess I'm going to write it. It will probably suck, but any sort of writing I can do is healthy.
