HI Hallie, I'm glad you like your new T. I have a Tattoo myself and I got it for a different reason. I used to SI and I told myself if I went for a year with out doing it I would get a tattoo as a reward. I picked out what I wanted (a 4 leaf clover) at the same time I decied I would get one if I stopped SIing. When the time came a year later and I Still wanted to get the tattoo and design I knew it was the right thing to do. It is a very different kind of pain...not so much of a hurt as an annoying feeling. The thing about tattoos is what the leave behind is beautiful and can be even more special if there is a story behind the design you pick. I am not going to say whether or not I think you should get a tattoo because after all it's your decision. *hugs*
