sharon's tattoo in progress. if i could relate sound through words you would hear the buzzing of the machine: now.

i promise one day i will update our myspace with new tattoos that we've done. we have gotten a lot better at tattooing and the ones we are doing now are kick-ass. for realz.

i still have no new tattoos cuz we are so busy doing everyone else's..boo.

when will it happen? i'm a little hesitant to let weiz do my unicorn. i really want it but, shit, i want it to be perfect. i want him to be an artist with it, not just a tracer. cuz there's a big difference between when i tattoo and when he does. he does the lines exactly as he sees them on the stencil and fills it in like a coloring book. when i tattoo i use the stencil as a guide and fill it like i'm coloring with crayons, blending and mixing and feeling. its a much different approach and our tattoos come out not how i want them sometimes. he wont tattoo unless he knows exactly where colors are going and where which piece is going where. it has to be perfect. technically he's a good tattooist, but he hasn't let himself go with it. i doubt he ever will. it's just the way he is about things. but thats the reason i haven't started on my unicorn even though its all i can think about.

well, and him.

well, and leaving.

well, and grains falling through the hour glass, desperately digging in nails to hold on for just a second longer...
