Yay tattoos, w00t!

Anyway, as my first official post in the forums (aside from the "Hi I'm New!" thinger), I figured it would be super cool of me to share my tattoos...all two of them.

The first one is some serious business: 

That is on my back.  It's got a few meanings, most obviously: music-is-my-life.

The second is an homage to my late Grandfather, who, like I am, was a Libra (this ones a lot bigger so I'm just going to link it): http://a893.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/01376/29/80/1376230892_l.jpg
That is on my left wrist; his initials are woven into the Libra symbol and read JJM.  I'm pretty big in to Astrology too, so that also occurs as a testament to my beliefs.

I want more tatts, cause they really are addictive.  Next on my list is to get the word "believe" on my right wrist in my own writing, and I'd also like to get an Om on my ankle, as well as something for my mom (who is my hero and battling breast cancer) somewhere, but I'm not sure where or what.

Anyhow, those are my tattoo shares :)

Ladybug:
Hm, I could ask for help here. A friend of mine asked me yesterday to help find her some tattoos of lillies and/or drawings that would make good tattoos of lillies. It's supposed to be for a guy, and, well, has to be pretty, but not "flashy". Subtleness or something discrete would be appreciated, at least not as big and colorful as this one:


If I were to get a tattoo, it'd be a small ladybug, because ladybug in Norwegian is "marih?ne", as in "Mari hen" (which sounds insanely stupid in English), and my name is Mari, and they're kinda supposed to represent luck (when I was a kid we used to make as many wishes as there were dots on ladybugs we found). But I don't think I'd ever get one.

Gemmwah:
Blimey, looking at this thread just makes me want another tattoo even more! I shall have to consult my tattooist when I get back to University, methinks I shall be inking up again.

Heijoshin:
Yeah, I've been itching to get my other leg done for ages, just been waiting on the money. Luckily I get paid on Friday, and have my birthday on the 20th, so I should have the cash to go get it done.

Also, I'm extremely excited that Des Moines's best tattoo artist, Dante, is back from his world travels, so I can start working with him on my back piece. I'll be getting a full back of a phoenix to compliment my sister's smaller back piece (not a tramp stamp, but close). It will be done in black and white, but then I hope to get flames worked in over it in UV ink. All of my ink has been planned for at least 5 years, so it's very exciting to have it coming together.

eEllii:
Yeah this has me completely itching now.
I have seven currently.
I'm suppose to be finishing my sleeve, but my dog decided to break his leg and cost me over $600 so far. Go dogs. -_-

here's a few of mine.
