I finally got my 3rd tattoo inked!

the DC artist was suggested to me by the artist of the tattoo that i got whom was suggested by the Armenian-Lebanese artist who inked my first tattoo.

Behold:

i recently celebrated my 29th birthday, and while it was unlike past festivities in the comraderie of good friends and appetites, it felt a bit different. Liberating would be a good word.

i have finally allowed myself to open the locked vaults of my past selves and reconcile feelings of despair and loneliness with my current self. I am stronger today and look forward to a wonderful year filled with new possibilities and ideas, new challenges and obstacles, and yes, new romances and connections.
