"Something inside me has opened up again."
I booked an appointment for my other palm a couple of weeks ago. The only reason that I bring it up is that I already have a scorpion on my right palm, and now (Feb 27) I will have a frog on the left palm. Where the problem in lies, is that virtually no one understands what I'm attempting to say.
You see, my right sleeve represents fire and death. And my left sleeve represents water and life. And although I got the scorpion done to represent my heavy handedness as an artist, the frog sitting on the other palm made perfect sense to me (if you're not already familiar, see the fable of "the scorpion and the frog."). My complaint is that as an artist and as a creative person, relaying anything to anybody leaves you pulling your hair out in the end. It seems that little to no one understands abstract thought anymore.
To this point, I never really felt sorry for people who felt "misunderstood" (partly because I always understood them), but I would like to take this time to make sure that I say it. You're not the only one. And maybe one day you and I could get together and pull our hair out over this. It might be fun.

So super jealous...Alaska never gets good shows, it's to much of a pain to ship all the equipment up here! That's why I try and travel as much as possible...Still it is a huge disappointment. Keep informing me of your experiences maybe I can live vicariously through you...Also send me a pic. as soon as your ink is nice and healed up!
