So I dropped Abby off at the pool for swim practice and went to 24 Hour Fitness at about 7 pm which is prime time for observing the millennial generation while on the treadmill. They do love their tatoos! When I was young tatoos were for Marines and bikers. Now your kid's kindergaretn teacher has them.

6.25 on the treadmill plus 200 floors on the stair master.

Mom's coming to visit tomorrow!

There are tattoos everywhere! The one good thing about running at the gym is people watching.

My kid's kindergarten teacher had tattoos and a nose ring. How did you know? She is a perfectly nice person for the record

I don't have any tattoos, but secretly, or not so secretly, I want a tattoo of a little sea turtle! Truth! As a Generation X girl, is this wrong of me???? ;-)

How are you, Rob?

Missin' our chats! Need to stop by your blog more often. :-)

Please tell you family hello. :-)

When I was growing up it was politely suggested through discouragement that I would not have tattoos or long hair. I didn't really want tattoos that bad but man did I want long hair! Sadly, it only grows sideways.

I think tattoos can be worn very well, but I also spent a lot of time in the Midwest with some really bad tattoos. I mean, what sort of tattoo artist messes up *a tear drop*?
