My first tattoo

Nov 11, 2008 20:42

We reached San Francisco last Tuesday, the 4th. My dad met us at SFO. We stayed with him and my step-mother Patricia at their house in Daly City for four days. On Wednesday, Dad took me to DC Tattoo.




Pascale, under my skin

Dad and I both have it on the inside of the left calf.

Dad got his tattoo almost as soon as he knew Pascale's final name. He sent me a photo of it in August, 10 weeks after she was born. It seemed fitting to celebrate the birth of my daughter by getting my first tattoo, for her, with my dad.

I am extremely happy with it, and I love looking at it. I've worn shorts all week to let it heal, so I've had plenty of time to admire it. Jason Harless, the owner of DC Tattoo, is awesome. The photo doesn't do justice to his skill with shading. Thanks, Dad!

OK, so the music is cliché. I couldn't resist.
