Operation: Rodentus Eradicatus and My New Tattoo Plans

So, it seems that little mousy bastard did, in fact, have some friends. As I finally have a day off, it is time to do something about that. I have more glue traps, but apparently I only caught the helmet wearer of this bunch. The other or others are too smart, it seems, to fall for it. So after I dress my spawn, it's off to Meijer for some D-Con.

I have been planning a large sclae back tattoo for several months now. I even had a design drawn up. It never actually felt right, though, so I haven't done much with it. Until now. I've decided on a new design, and this one feels perfect. Here is my gorgeous cousin-in-law and her tattoo.



Mine will be something like this. The trunk will start lower on my back, and more on the back. It'll also go all the way up my side and out across my shoulders. under the tree branches will be a dragon. I'm still deciding on the dragon image, but that's phase 2 so I'm not overly worried about it yet. Then, near the dragon will be a butterfly. I may have several smaller butterflies around one larger one yet. Again, this is phase 2, so I'm still working on it. The butterflies represent change, both large and small and multitudinous. The tree is for life, both beautiful and short. The dragon, of course, is me.
