This is a tattoo I got a few months ago and it really means a lot to me. People keep saying it looks like a video game controller (I don’t know of any video game controllers that look like that), but it’s actually the butterfly vertebra of a fox. That is, the first cervical vertebra of a fox, so it’s near the top of my back. I got it mostly because I thought it looked amazing, but I’ve always been really shy and afraid to talk to people so this little backbone is my little reminder to “have a backbone” in social situations. Along with other things. It was done by Diane at Syncere Tattoo in Las Cruces, New Mexico. And I couldn’t be happier with it!
