Well...that escalated quickly...
You know, this was only supposed to be a one time deal, but for some inexplicable reason, I find myself compelled to type more. Maybe it's the responses you guys have given, who knows?
Anyway, before I start off, let me get a few things straight. The reason this isn't in the forums is because...well I have a bit of a thing for forums...I just don't feel comfortable there...kinda hard to explain, so just think lactose intolerance...
As for some of those who feel I might be trying to steer people away from JackxArcee, and I should let people write whatever they want,
Week 4:
This week has been in turns, fun, thoughtful, full of computer dumbness, and boring.
To start off this week, just about everyone in the shop has been complaining about our computer lately and how god awful slow it is. Complaint after complaint lead me to investigate it, and it was chalk full of random crap that it didn't need. So I spent all day Wednesday, de-bugging, de-botting, de-virusing, and in general just performing maintenance that should have been done on the thing a while ago.
In a shop full of dudes, I am the only one that REALLY knows their way around computers. I have never had the tables so turned on me in my life, bu
Week 3:
This week has been a little bit interesting mostly due to the fact that I was gone two days, due to Aros (my husband) getting Lasik, and The boys tattooing at the Ray Price Harley Davidson Event all this weekend. However it has not been without it's learnings…. Oh no…. In fact! This week has been full of learnings and I think I made a couple of very big steps on my journey!
Taking apart, cleaning, learning all the parts, and properly reassembling tattooing machines! Tattooing machines (at least the older ones) Are finicky beasts that don't take shit from anyone and will happily not work right if you don't have them tuned right. Wel
Week 2: Of Sugar skulls and agony
This week has been another interesting week. It seems like right now the shop is either super busy, or super dead (both good for different reasons) Result of it being slow, is that I get to help design tattoos for people!
So the week started out with Sugar Skulls. For those of you that don't know I am going to give a little back history on what Sugar Skulls are! Sugar skulls or calaveras de azúcar for those of you more familiar with the Spanish term, are a candy that is created especially for the Day of the Dead Celebration, or Día de los Muertos. It's based around the Catholic holiday of All Saints, or All
**** AS A NOTE I AM FULLY OPEN FOR COMMISSIONS PM ME FOR DETAILS ****
First week of the apprenticeship has come and gone! I am still extremely excited to be doing what I am doing. For any of you that want to know what it's like to apprentice in a tattoo shop, I figure I will keep a running weekly log on all the sites I am a part of so you guys can keep up with me and my progress!
Week 1: A lesson in cleaning and pain.
The first thing anyone needs to know about a GOOD tattoo shop, is that everything is clean. The floors are mopped, and vacuumed, and everything is dusted, re-dusted, and dusted some more. Every Surface that comes into contact

Time Traveller's Engagement
Exactly ten years from tomorrow, we'll be married here. My wife doesn't know that, of course. In a certain sense, neither do I.
It's a beautiful spot, now. Now meaning today, when the sunlight is still pure, and the sky is still blue. The ivy still climbs in green snakes up the side of her father's chateau, the pennants of the House of Renard are snapping gaily over the towers.
I hear a lilting laugh that even now sends my heart into my throat. Euryale Renard. She is only a girl today, no older than my little sister is in the days I left behind. Even at twelve, my Ury's curls catch the sun like molten amber, with a flower basket flung wide
"So. You started exhibiting abilities…?"
"Um… three years ago? Yeah, three years, and it was May I think. Fourteenth or maybe sixteenth, I don't remember exactly – I just remember that it was my last semester. Yeah, three years ago, May."
"Fourteenth or sixteenth?"
"Yeah, one or the other. I remember that because I has these huge goddamn exams, you know, one was on fourteenth and other on sixteenth and it was during one of them I heard it for the first time. Can't remember which one though, just remember being a nervous wreck. I studied of course, I mean, hello, you know? But test's a test."
"Right. It started during a

MULLETITAN FACES HIS FINAL FOE - Pacific Rim
He'd done it.
He'd really done it!! Victory at last!!
After decades of fighting he stood as the last of his kind waist deep in the Pacific Ocean.
Mulletitan the orange-haired Kaiju couldn't help but do a little victory jiggle over the shattered remains of human civilization.
But his little jiggle was short lived because he suddenly heard a familiar voice sounding out from the cliffside. GLaDOS announced another Jäegar was being deployed to face him, but he knew there were none left (he'd been reading all the Pacific Rim 2 spoilers) so he watched in bewildered confusion as the Shatterdome opened up to reveal a 300 foot tall piece of t
