I dig your list too Yail! Sounds a little edgy, awesome :-)

I had always wanted to get a tattoo but didn't because I thought it would go against my "family man" thing I had going on and my XW wasn't into it at all. After D I was like screw it, I'm going for it. I told my kids and interestingly they were all for it. So now I have a full arm sleeve, full leg sleeve and a start on the other leg. It's been expensive and really painful but wow do I ever love my ink. It's a conversation starter no matter where I go. Often I'll be somewhere with the kids and they'll say "hey he/ she wants to see your tattoos" because they'll hear someone comment on it, they seem to love the attention more than me, LOL!

Anyway my advice on tattoos, once you have an idea of what you want then do your research on local artists. Each has their own style, you don't want to go to a black-and-grey specialist with a full color tatt in mind. Find the right artist. It took me weeks of looking through online portfolios, it's amazing how many you will dismiss just based on that. If they are really good/popular then you will probably have to book months in advance so keep that in mind.
