A tattoo? What of? I have for years given thought to getting a tat, but it would have to be something I loved so much I'd want to marry it, and I never even loved a man that much. (Well, I did. He didn't. But that's beside the point.) Besides, at my age, I don't think it would go over as cute and sexy.

Tattoo is going to be my fraternity motto: Vita brevis, ars longa. Rough translation: Life is short, art is long.
Re: Hype's 2012 Life Achievement List
Maybe mine should be "Life is short. Eat dessert first." But in Latin or something.
Re: Hype's 2012 Life Achievement List
Wow, Hype, I love love LOVE the idea of doing your BFS list as a game! That is brilliant! I so must try this!
How much experience have you got so far?
