eyes

anyone that knows me I have a little phobia about eyes , I cant touch my eye , contacts freak me out and even movies with eye shit bug me, and when other touch their own eyes it bugs me.
so the other day when my wife said we had a appointment at the eye DR. I was a bit nerves

So for the first time since I was like 7 or 9 I had my eyes checked
guess I never needed to go anyway my eyes are all good
but man do they make you feel like their trying to trick you with the 2o questions ,the flashes in the eye, and the fucking awful puff of air in the eye test.

had fun tattooing Rob the other day
