Sore!

Man, I miss the days in which going to the gym used to be an energizing, feel-good activity. Now I "feel the burn", or more accurately put, "feel insane aches and cramping" exactly where the surgical incisions were made. Its hard enough to get back into a gym regimen, and when work outs end with surgery-related aches and pains that linger long

I'm leaning towards Stephanie at NY Adorned, but I'm still exploring my options.

That's who I was gonna suggest.

Ooo, have you gone to her or heard a ton of positive testimonials? The work on her site is amazing, though I'm a little put off by her "my waiting list is AT LEAST 4 months long". Ha, I scheduled surgery in less time!

yeah, everyone I know recommended her to me, but when I called, the people at NY adorned said "uh, she's not taking new clients right now." so i think you might have to know someone to get a slot with her.

My sister and I went to Alex at East Side Ink to get our seahorse tattoos done-

hmm, I tried to embed an image of our tattoos, but it isn't working. Here's a link to a large version. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4CeVro2R-r8/SM7dK3r8FHI/AAAAAAAAAl0/WK4D47Cq2uQ/s1600-h/IMG_3579.JPG

Anyway, he did a great job, and I'd really recommend him and the staff at East Side Ink. http://www.eastsideinktattoo.com/ There were other artists there who looked great, too, including one doing a huge, very detailed arm sleeve of what looked like St. George and the Dragon.

Ahh crap. I've skipped out on the gym for quite some time now...I feel awful. You are too disciplined!

Ugh, I wish I was more disciplined about the gym. This cold weather makes me cranky and crampy, so I find I keep cutting workouts short. I should just get a roll of medical tape and 20 packets of hot hands and paste them all over myself like I did when I'd unload trucks in ice storms. Human space heater!
