tattoos
well.. it just struck me, with the art of tattooing becoming so popular and the median age of people on this group being somewhere around 29ish.. (I'm 37 when I got my first tattoo it was considered risque (sp?) now a good hunk of my back is devoted to it (with more to come) .. SO! I was wondering if fellow cellarites (if I may consider myself among you) have tattoos, why one has one and if you'd be willing to share a picture/ story/ explanation along with it? ( as I mentioned.. it's my back and such, so I have to wait for the wife to be to get back from her folks to get a picture of it). just curios.. as to another thread... how's about pets? how many people here have one or more?

I have three tattoos. In fact, I had my latest one done just last Thursday! I don't have photographic evidence of it as yet, but I will soon. So far it's remained covered up because I don't want hubby to see it till Christmas day. It's my gift to him. A dolphin with his name underneath it.
These are my other two. Not the greatest pics, but they'll do. One is Taz. He's on my right ankle. That was my first tattoo and I've had it for almost 10yrs now I guess. He signifies the little devil in me. The other is a bird of paradise with my sons names under it. The bird signifies the beauty and freedom of my children.

No tattoos here, but I've got 2 & 3/4 cats and a lot of fish in my aquarium.

I have two tattoos, two cats, and a dog (although soon I will have 3 cats and no dog, he is going to a good home). I will see if I can have my SO take pictures when I get home later.

You know Ibram, a tattoo is something that becomes an integral part of you. Even forms part of your identity to a lesser or greater extent.
For that reason, it should be a decision made entirely and soley by you. That's what I feel anyway.

That's a good point too Zippy. I know I thought long and hard about getting hubby's name inked on, but then figured there's always laser therapy if it doesn't work out.

Or you could get his name covered up with a design , I have seen this done well and I have seen it done VERRRRRRRRRY badly !!!
From what I have seen Lazer leaves a scar , it can be minimilized , but it is still a scar .

Yeah, I've seen them covered with a new design. I've actually seen a guy who had a name just completely blotted out.
Hopefully, and with a bit of good luck and better management, I'll not have to worry about any of the above mentioned options though.

Here are my tattoos. The dragon is on my lower back, and the iguana is on my belly (obviously). I love them very much and wouldn't change anything about them. I want more!!!
Also, now you know where I got my cellar handle (is that what you would call it?). I also had a pet iguana for 7 years. He passed away. I miss him very much.
