We had a great Christmas at home with my family and Chris visiting from CA. We then went to Austin for a few days to see Dan, Margaret and baby Hannah.

We got a Wii but I haven’t even used it yet. Matt’s already got an elbow injury tho :D

I got my first tattoo back in 1993 at Atomic Tattoo in Austin, Texas. Its some crazy thing on my left ankle.

I had been wanting a new tattoo for a while but wasn’t sure what. Instead of a tattoo immediately, I got a new piercing on the 27th.

I went to Book People and looked at all kinds of tattoo and design books until I found a symbols and logos book that caught my eye. At the very back of the book were examples of handwritten symbols.. and there it was!

I went back to Atomic Tattoo Monday night with a friend and got it done! I’m very pleased!

Roots

“In every forest, on every farm, in every orchard on earth, it’s what’s under the ground that creates what’s above the ground. That’s why placing your attention on the fruits that you have already grown is futile. You cannot change the fruits that are already hanging on the tree. You can, however, change tomorrow’s fruits. But to do so, you will have to dig below the ground and strengthen the roots.” ~ T. Harv Eker from Secrets of the Millionaire Mind

I gotta get to those roots…
