Have you ever had an experience where your body and your brain just don't agree?
I've been wanting a tattoo for a long, long time. I've been deciding what I want forever and I have a whole Pinterest board devoted to it. I finally decided and picked the size and coloring. I had talked to that part of my conscience that thinks it is wrong and had told her to shove it. I even warned my BFF so it wouldn't come as a surprise.
Yesterday was the day. I got up and got ready and was really excited for it. The husband and I drove out to a very reputable place where we had seen some good work come out of. I was getting a little anxious on the drive but was mostly excited.
We pulled up to the place and parked right in front. All of a sudden, I was terrified. Tears started pouring out of my eyes and I couldn't get out of the car. I couldn't explain why. I want a tattoo. I don't think the pain will be too excruciating. I just couldn't make myself do it. I feel like the girl who cried wolf. I will get one. I just have to figure out what is making me such a baby.
it's ok! i almost got a tattoo once too. in fact they had it all drawn out and everything. We had my rib cage all exposed discussing the best spot to place my tattoo. When suddenly I said... "I don't think I can do this".

And I never went back.
