On This Day one year ago, I got my first ever tattoo.
And then completely unintentionally, on this today....
Given our financial situation, it's not super responsible to get a tattoo right now. But I've decided that I have nothing to be ashamed of. There are so many things that it's socially acceptable to spend money on, especially as a white heterosexual cis-gendered woman, things that most people won't notice or bat an eye about. Makeup, hair dye, hair cuts/styles, hairspray/gel, whatever, manicures, pedicures, waxing, shaving, lotions, I don't even know what else.
There's nothing wrong with any of those things. I just don't have any interest in them. I don't spend money that way. I guarantee I've spent less money on these two tattoos, than I could have spent on all those other things in the same time frame. So I'm going to wear my tattoos without the shame.
And as soon as possible, I'm going to get some colors added to this new one.
