My brain: nope. Blurbs only.

Me: but what if that isn’t good enough? What if it doesn’t feel good enough?

My brain: get done. 300 words, accomplished. next thing!!

#TattooTale: Crossed the Line

“I am twenty two years old. I got this tattoo when I was seventeen at a tattoo shop in Tucson, Arizona that did not require any id. As cool as I thought it was back then, my perspectives have changed. The tattoo is a two inch cross on my lower back. I need this tattoo removed because everyone these days are calling it a tramp stamp. I have began a healthier lifestyle within this past year, of eating better and exercising. So far I have lost forty-five pounds. I love my new body and continue to progress but I am so embarrassed by this tattoo that I still do not feel comfortable in my skin. I am afraid to even bend over to expose this tattoo. To make matters worse, I recently became engaged to a wonderful man. He is very conservative and he and his family are religious and do not approve of tattoos. I want to put this tattoo behind me and move on with my life. I want to feel comfortable in my skin for the first time that I can remember.”
