For almost as long as I've been getting tattoos, I wanted something to represent me always doing everything fast... eating, driving, drinking, thinking, whatever. I eventually came to just getting the words "Left Lane" since that's where you're supposed to go fast. When Anna Frederick (local lettering nerd) partnered up with the guys at Iron Heart tattoo, I jumped at the opportunity to get some custom lettering done. Anna and I chatted through and iterated on the design, she came up with something we both liked, and Joshua Bowers tattooed me. I love it.
