Years ago I used to say that I wanted a giant tattoo like
Vega from
Street Fighter. I didn’t want anything on my arm or nothing. Just a giant snake that went all around my body. Of course I didn’t get that…or
did I? No, I didn’t. Over time I figured that I was over 30 years old and if I got a tattoo it would be my form of a mid-life crisis. Then last year my friend who is a tattoo artist convinced me to finally get one. I decided upon
Skulduggery Pleasant,
The Skeleton Detective. I love the books and the design and one day while reading it I said to myself “
This is it.” I always tell my friend that there is a lot of stuff about tattoos they don't tell you are complete lies in films. It takes a long time to heal. Good places don't tattoo drunk people (
booze makes you bleed more). And not all tattoos are completed in one day.
