More Work On The Octopus

Today, I went for the first of several coloring sessions on Martin, my leg’s octopus. (He is named Martin after our nation’s eighth president, Martin Van Buren. I am the biggest nerd you’ve ever met.) I sat for roughly two hours. My leg has been bandaged ever since.

Yesterday, I ran into a friend’s sister, who wanted to know what it was about tattooing that I liked: the process, the end result, the pain? A good question; for me, the answer is the process. Watching my skin disappear is fun.

The question now turns toward the rest of my lower right leg. As the one side of my lower right leg disappears, what happens to the other? What goes on that particular side? And why?
