Very pretty! If you can resolve the technical issues rarelytame brought up and decide on the location and work out the financial aspect of it (they're expensive little buggers), and if it resonates in your heart, do it and to hell with what anybody else thinks. At worst, many years from now you will look at it and say, "This marks a time in my life when I was courageous and did something I wanted to do and carried a beautiful, meaningful symbol in the very cells of my being." As for the pain, I got mine on the fleshy part of my back where there was lots of padding, and it just felt like a kitten was digging in with its tiny claw over and over and over. I wanted to smack the artist out of sheer irritation, but it wasn't painful per se - and I'm a pain weenie. Shawn had four hours of work done in one sitting, but he's a viking, so that doesn't help.
Here's something funny - I've been looking at your three "Tolkien Tree" user icons and thinking how much I'd like to have one of *them* as a tattoo!
