After work today, I hopped a bus for Lake County. I met up with my friend Annie, and we went into downtown Willoughby to find a place on Vine that had a good reputation. I gave the artist Joe my design and some dollars. We picked out a spot on my lower calf and the fun began.It didn't hurt at first, but then it did. And then some more pain. We took a break as I felt a bit hypoglycemic. I had water and some candy, and we started up again. I tried to imagine a more pleasant pain like pounding out mile 16 of the IM marathon.
Finally we were done.
Here it is....
Sorry mom and dad.
The design is mine, and should be obvious. The rook represents Sherborne Castle, the main feature of IMUK

Very nice tattoo! I like it.
The Manny tattoo probably would've hurt less :-)
Ironically, My ex and I were almost tattooed by a Ramirez foul ball back in 'o4. Fortunately we were out indulging in bad habits. From what other fans said, the ball hit the seat with an enormous force.
That thing would have hurt for sure.
Awesome! Cool design! Joe did Matt's tattoo last month also. Quiet guy, huh? Skilled though!
nice! I like when IM peeps make their tat original like this.
Very nice! Maybe you'd like to sport the tat @ the Red Flannel 100K out in Oberlin on Sunday?? Or, a backpacking trip to Athens Co. soon??
Jen, John kept the the conversation up for everyone. Joe had some good wit, especially when I felt faint.." The Ironman fainting was awfully amusing to Joe.
If you don't have one, and ever decide to get one, eat a good meal prior to the process.
charlie
great tat.
I especially like your graphic tribute to Herve!!!!!
"If manny got bonked in the head, would he feel it??
Isn't Kona all of our Fantasy Island.
Herve was only chanting what stewardess's chant.
"De Plane, De Plane..
