    Sarah-

    That is an amazing tat! Love it! Wish I weren't too chicken to consider one - but I am...

    That one is cool! Did you design it yourself?

    I've wanted a small stick-person mountain biker above my surgical scar (as a simple explanation for it) but can't decide on a design. There are some funny ones on the trail system in Richmond (a guy flying over the bars with a comical expression on his face) but I don't know if I want funny or serious or just plain. Someday I'll put more thought into it! (My other two were sort of spur-of-the-moment decisions that I like but mean nothing...so will never mean the wrong thing, if that makes sense)

    Thanks!

    Its from here: http://www.blackbirdsf.org/chainwheels/

    I have been thinking about it for years, truly. The times of thinking about it in a positive way started to drastically outnumber the non-thinking about it times. It is in a place where no one from my "professional" life will ever see it.

    It hurt like hell.

    These are my tattoos: The butterfly on my lowerback was the very first one I got done about 9 years ago and it needs some touch up. the Black Dragon was my second one on my right arm got it done about 8 years ago. The Dream Catcher on my left arm is my third and it's not done yet i got it done 4 years ago... it needs to be fixed though. The Chinese letters on my ribs is my most recent one and I got it done a week ago. I am schedule for a new one in about 3 weeks and also for re-touching and finishing the Dream Catcher. They all have a meaning to me. Very special meaning.

    Those are great!

    I had a dream this week that I had gotten a tattoo of tree branches on my face, and really regretted it. I still like my real tattoo, though.

    I still like yours too, MP. I keep thinking I would like to get a smallish series on one calf that shows the major physical stuff I've done and loved--it would be a ballet shoe and the swim/bike/run symbols. Don't know if I'll do it, but it's the first time I've ever had it firmly fixed in my head that I would LIKE to do it.
