Emily's Name....Forever in Ink

 Tim is no stranger to the tattoo gun.  He's got several....ok, he's bordering on "many"...but there is one consistent theme.. no names!  In the tattoo world, getting your girlfriend's name is insane, wife's name is completely idiotic, but kids' names are just fine.  Why?  Well, your kids are your kids forever.  Doesn't change.  Your girlfriend or wife?  Getting their name is the kiss of death for that relationship.  So while my name will never grace Timmy's body, our kids' names have been his goal since November 18, 2010.
He got Emily's name yesterday in a beautiful font called "featherography".  After this has healed, he will be adding some shading and making some additions that are specific to Emily.  For example, he wants to add a scorpion tail to the "Y" in Emily because she's a Scorpio and he might add a smoking gun in the background because she's such a pistol. (yes, pun intended). In a month or two, Jason Oliver will be added to his other side.  Jason's personal touches haven't been decided yet--we need to give him a little more time to develop a distinct personality.
