A pink couch is always a good idea.

pointless post has been pointless.

so i’m doing a project for 2012 using hipstamatic’s d-series app for the iphone. it’s basically a faux disposable camera, and you can’t see any of the shots you took until you finish the camera. i’m going to do one for each month. here is the first part of january.
The archer represents an Amazon warrior. In mythology, Amazonian women would remove a breast in order to be better archers. And I absolutely feel like a warrior after these past almost 16 months since I was diagnosed. And that has been my approach from the very beginning. Fight like hell. No matter what happens, no regrets. No second guessing.
And the wording - My Body Is Not My Soul - is for both me and one of the women I love most in this world, my friend Erin. Losing my breasts taught me that we are not the sum of our parts. Our bodies are just skin cars we are driving around while we are bound by this mortal coil. They get dented, battered and bruised. But that has nothing to do with who you really are. Erin was born into a body that wasn’t the right one for her. And thankfully, we live during a time in history when she can do something about that. She is one of the most beautiful and true women I have ever known. And she was right beside me while I got this tattoo - holding my hand and letting me squeeze the absolute shit out of hers when it hurt. I love you, Erin.
