I just got a tattoo and am regretting it.  Long story--basically, I got asked to be in this documentary, which was not planned well, and they wanted to film me getting ink (not my first tattoo, and I'm very happy with my others).  I didn't have sufficient time to go back & forth with the artist on my design, and with the cameras there and these people expecting me to go through with this for their movie, well.  I ended up with a black-ink-only design, about 2" across, on top of my left foot.  It's not absolutely hideous, but it's definitely not what I wanted.  I think I'm going to have to get it lasered out when I can afford it.  However, since it's fresh, is there anything I can do to *intentionally* fade it?
