I bought the tattoo cover-up by Kat von D for a job interview.  I hate it. It’s thick. It balls up and rubs off. I hate even more that I have to cover my tattoo. Why? Does it make me a better person? NO! It makes me feel insecure, upset, sad, inadequate, frustrated, and full of disdain.  Quite frankly, I just want to cry. I don’t know if I can work at a place that makes me change who I am.

I need this because it’s a stepping stone to a better place, a tattooed, open, happy, loving, self-sufficient place. I just hope I can survive this place and make it to the next.
