Hex in the city: STUFF!

Sunday 24 June 2012

STUFF!

So today I got my first tattoo in a over a year and a half, couldn't get tattooed cause of all that cancer garbage and skin garbage and what not.

My buddy and incredible artist Casper Mugridge drew me up a Goat's head I fell in love with, and he then put it on my body.

My Goat.

The Goat represents many things, but a few things I feel the goat represents for me is:

INDEPENDANCE

CURIOSITY

RESILIENCE

INDIVIDUALITY

I had a lot of people telling me it was going to hurt- you know what I said-

It couldn't hurt more than cancer.

Plus, I wanted to feel the pain, man.

I just went through a whole year and a half of painful surgeries, needle pricks, more needle pricks, pain coursing through my bones up to the top of my head.

That was pain I didn't want. That was pain I didn't ask for.

With a tattoo, you can chose where you are gonna get the pain and I am very good at choosing "painful spots", but you get to choose it, you ask for it, you have the control.

Plus interferon needles don't leave nice images behind.

I feel great after my 2 hour sit today.

I had a natural buzz going after and thought I would go find myself a jean jacket, walked into Buffalo and there it was- the jacket I've been looking for!

$128... But 50% off!

SCORE! I yell and the whole store looks my way, I realized then not a single woman worked there and all the employees were gay, gay gay, so they smiled.

Then I went and got a few cool summer tops for picnics and hot days, most are full of holes, nice venting holes. I am developing a distaste for really hot weather, and all the sweating and stickiness that comes with it.

I had a sudden urge to go to 7 Eleven and get sour blue raspberry Tangy Zangy sticks, chewy chocolate chips ahoy, a pack of cigs and then to Wendy's for a 1/4 with cheese, overall a very unhealthy food day, but I get cravings and they must be satisfied!
