Shalom Mel,

Love the tattoo, when did you get it? I want one.

Thanks, MB!

Mom -- I just got it on Wednesday. You should get one! What do you have in mind? Someone once told me that if you want to get a tattoo you won't regret, go ahead if you've wanted the same thing in the same place for a year.

MELANIE!!! I can't believe you got a tattoo! So cool and so suiting for you. Can't wait to see it!

Love the Tattoo! I have a couple and love mine still to this day. Dave actually is working on an arm piece of David and Goliath. He's had 3 sittings and still has a fourth to finish it. Maybe i'll post some pics on my blog. It's amazing. We love tattoos...they are so great! Enjoy yours...

Mandi - Yes, I'm rather pleased with it! I think it's one I'll always be fond of. I've actually had the appointment made for a few months, but I just wanted to keep it to myself until the deed was done.

Kyla - Thanks! I would love to see the one Dave is working on... on your BLOG. (This is new and fun! I'm your first subscriber.) Maybe you'll show us yours, too? I can understand how they can become addictive. :)

Well thanks, Lyanne, and welcome to the comments! It's all healed up now and looks nice and delicate and reminds me of shalom as I go about my day. I highly recommend getting a tattoo at 30!

I'm curious what nickname this brings to mind for you....
