I got a tattoo

Let me first explain. I had a tattoo before, still have it. However, it was made with a homemade tattoo gun made from a pen with a needle and a tiny motor from something or other. It hurt like hell and I sat on frozen bags of peas to numb my ass for it. Yes, it's a star on my ass and it hurt really bad. I'm a real wimp when it comes to pain... You'd think after having 4 kids, I'd be a bit stronger.

Now, after 18 years, I've did it. I got a real tattoo by a real tattoo artist. I thought it would have hurt as much as the first one but it didn't. The only time it hurt enough to make me grind my teeth together and grab the chair's Oh Shit Bar was when he was doing the tiny details near a spot he'd done before. I found the design using Google Images and it was from someone on Deviantart.net. I was going to have it colored but I think it looks really nice the way it is.
