I got my first tattoo :)

Finally!!! Ive waited two years to get my tattoo. My plan was when I turned 18 I would go get my first tattoo, but two weeks before my birthday my dad had a family meeting and said no tattoos or peircings.. I was livid. After that Chris and I made a promise that we would get our first tattoos together. After I turned 19 when my parents went out of town I peirced my lip, and my dad got upset and made me pay for my own car insurence which I didn't think was a big deal. And there was a huge thing that happened with that but Id rather not go into that at the moment. I was getting married anyways so I really didn't care about paying for my own car insurence. Anyways Chris and I got our tattoos right before we left. Chris got a Celtic cross with wings. It took about three hours and he took about three breaks to smoke of course. But he was having issues with his back so he needed to move a little bit. His is healing up real well and he didn't even bleed when it was getting done. Which I'm jealous cuz mine bled... and it hurt since it was open. But its kay it was so worth it. I got a lamb with a crown of thorns sitting in a rose.
So it looks bad ass and I completely love it. But on our way home to cali, it started peeling. And not peeling how its suppose too... it was peeling off in big chungs and most of the color.. so now its super faded and needs to be touched up really bad. And I'm really upset about it cuz its my fault because I moisterized it way too much. I just didn't want it to dry up and crack.. And since my skin is alreay dry I thought that the tattoo would be worse than my skin.. but in the end i screwed it up and I'm upset.. Here's a picture, its not the best so Ill take another one in better lighting later.

We ended up bringing lexi, my moms dog, home with us to cali. Shes a border collie and super smart. She did really well in the car but for the first stops she would eat drink of pee, she would poop sometimes but I have no idea why she needed to poop when she wasnt eating anything. But finally I got her to drink some water and go pee so that was good. We got home and the first night she chewed up and extension cord, a nintendo controller to the oldschool nintendo, chewed up some paper and i can't remember what else she chewed up the first night. The second night she didn't chew anything which was really really good! and then Chris and I fell asleep on the couch and she chewed up chris' sandles.. She got a Butt woopin that time but then she also started chewing up her frisby which she can chew up I don't care. So then we went to Ikea :D :D :D :D I love that store, and we got us a TV stand for our TV that comes in tomorrow, its going to be HUGEEEEE im so excited lol. We get home... and lexi has chewed through my new sandles that Becky JUST gave me and I didn't even get a chance to wear them at all and then my red flip flops that Ive had for almost a year now and had them for super summer last year so now I dont have flip flops that I actually like.. and she chewed through the cord to our brand new fan that we got a couple days ago and a couple of socks. She didn't even touch her bone. Which is retarted, she use to eat bones all the time but since she got here she wont touch it. So last night she didn't chew anything which is good. So hopefully this chewing will continue to stop, its getting quite expensive.

So close But so far

Today wasn't too bad. I had a short circuit tho, really short. But I studied for my College success course and cleaned a little bit so my apartment doesn't look horrible.
Its more organized and less messy. So it helped my stress a little bit. Chris gets home in a little more than 24 hours and I am STOKED. I miss him so much, and I don't think anyone quite understands.
Tomorrow I'm getting a mani and pedi with Christina. I must say that I love her, she is such an amazing person and am so glad that she is my friend. She has helped me so much and its so nice that she is here and she knows what I'm going through and can help as much as she can and vice versa. It's nice just to know that what I'm going through is what is "suppose" to happen, or rather projected to happen when a husband goes on deployment. I started reading books at the beginning but I just didn't want to think about it so I stopped. I can't wait for my love to be home and in my arms once again. I can't wait to be held by him.

I still have baby fever.
