You may not be believe me but I found the tattooing experience actually rather pleasent and enjoyable. It hurt in the way a deep massage hurts and was quite easy to lay there and joke around with my friends, tattoo artist and owner despite that I was doing a four hour sitting. I had a really long session yesterday and tried a new technique. I wasn't sure how it would work -- see, usually, I have my music going and just drift with a specially selected playlist that I've prepared for body-mod events. Yesterday, however, I had a book that I'd been itching to read but hadn't had time to sit down with -- and I knew I was going to be sitting for at least 3 hours (it ended up being 5, because after we were done for the day with all the work we could do on my Optic Lotus for the day, my daughter decided that some of the custom ink colors she'd mixed up would be PERFECT for some of the fire-scape and dragon work on my collarbone/left front shoulder/chest piece, and rather than waste them or have to try to re-make them, we went ahead and worked on that one, too). AAAAAAAaaanyway... I found that I got very consumed in the story I was reading, and it made the time just wizz by, even with heavy color work directly over my spine! I will -definitely- be using reading as a tool for future tat work. Calla
