Oh...I don't need to change. His parents love me. My parents love him too. I just really want our parents to love each other. Life can get difficult when in-laws don't get along.
I'm sorry to hear about your friend. :( My artist is Greg James at Sunset Strip Tattoo in Hollywood, CA. He is amazing. I had to wait a long time for an appointment, but it was worth it.
The koi are actually colored in right now. Got some more work done on Friday. I'll post pics up when it heals. Right now, my skin is in that stage where it hates me. They both have black and gray scales, but one has blue spots and the other has orange-red spots. It's looking gorgeous. I'm very happy with it so far.
