In an ensuing email, she asked if she could send her friend Shannon my way to share her ink. "Of course," I replied, and was directed by Sherry to Borders, where Shannon worked. "Ask to see her wieners," she said and added, parenthetically, "(it's G rated, I promise!)."
The Borders in question is part of my normal stomping ground, so I kept my eyes peeled. No sign of Shannon and her wieners.
Then, at the beginning of the month, I finally found Shannon and met Geddy Lee and Sarah Lee, the two wieners tattooed on her upper right arm. They are of course, wiener dogs, more formally known as dachshunds:
The one on the left is Geddy Lee, named after the lead singer of Rush. Shannon's a big fan of the Canadian rock trio.
Sarah Lee, on the right, is a fictional dachshund, do-si-do'ing with Geddy, as they are dance partners.
The tattoo took two sessions, which shows her devotion to Geddy Lee who, Shannon acknowledges, is "that little jerk [that] sucked my soul". She loves him to no end.
These beloved dogs were inked by Adam Paterson at Jersey City Tattoo Company.
Thanks again to Shannon for sharing this incredible tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!
