So... I'm thinking about getting another tattoo. People are right when they say it's addicting.

But not yet. This one... I want to wait awhile for this one, and figure out something special. I'm thinking just text this time, and I've already picked out a couple of sections I Really Really Like.

Eloisa to Abelard by Alexander Pope

How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd;
Labour and rest, that equal periods keep;
"Obedient slumbers that can wake and weep;"
Desires compos'd, affections ever ev'n,
Tears that delight, and sighs that waft to Heav'n.



OR

Hamlet, by Shakespeare

The undiscovered country from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will



[or possibly just "the undiscovered country", not sure.]

Now I'm just seeing my body as a canvas to draw on. Great.
