I had a tattoo dream last night…

… that I finally got my long-sought after tattoo, but it was on this odd front part of my calf. Somehow I decided to get a lady with a big heart at her center, holding the world over her head. OKay, so I’m thinking I was going for a Mother Atlas sort of thing. Gaia or something.

I noticed it was incomplete, and I had to go back to the artist to get the Earth all-tattooed in. So basically it was an outline of this lady with her arms in the air.

Except when I looked at it, the lady looked like a cross between those droopy-eyed Precious Moments dolls and a bad female anime drawing. I was horrified.

How was going to live with this thing FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE, let alone explain it to my husband? WTF? I calmed myself thinking, Well, at least it was only slightly inked in.

But wait.

Because next thing I notice is not only is the Earth still missing, but the girl suddenly changed again. Now she was a cheerleader/can-can dancer and there were sparkles and glitter and rhinestones all embedded in my leg.

The best part: She was wearing a big fruit and feather hat, that was actually sticking out of my leg like a fluffy pencil.
