Good Morning

     Buffy is mesmerized by the images on the computer screen.  Visual eye-candy, the designs virtually fly off the screen and arouse her curiosity.
Her eyes are held spellbound by the reams of information, and it boggles her mind. And what better way to celebrate her 50th birthday than with a tattoo?
So, she makes a call and arranges an appointment.
Weeks later, she inhales a deep breath, opens the door, and crosses the threshold into the studio. A tattoo artist escorts her to a work area.
After they discuss designs and risks, Buffy climbs onto a tattoo bed. She shuts her eyes and prays this rite-of-passage is soon over.
That evening, her sparkling eyes light up. A small butterfly tattoo now adorns her left shoulder.
Flashbacks of needles and discomfort all but fall by the wayside.
