SATURDAY MORNING BREAKFAST SHOW

I want.

I want a new tattoo. Some of you don’t know this about me but I DO I have one. It’s on my back between my shoulder blades. It’s an outline of two finches attached at the hips. I got it when I was 18 because t’was a rule in my house that no child would get piercings (for the boys) or tattoos until we turned 18. Five years have passed since then and I’ve been brainstorming on what I could get next. I’ve mulled over many ideas for a long while now and I think I have it figured out. I want the moon. See, I’ve had a deep love of space (pun extremely intended) since I was a wee lad. In fact, being an astronaut was one of my first Halloween costumes I can remember asking for. In any case. I. LOVE. SPACE. I especially love the moon. How it looms over the earth at night providing just enough reflected light from the sun to let us play after dark. It unknowingly controls the tides which keeps many ecosystems living and working. I’m from New Brunswick, a province in Canada that has the highest tides on earth, 16.3 metres or 53.5 feet! You can walk out on the ocean floor for seemingly miles when it’s out. Craziness. So yes, I would like a new tattoo, I would like it to be the moon and I think i’ve settled on having it on my forearm. That way I can see the man in the moon anytime I look down.

Sorry if this post seems pretentious at all. It’s just been on my mind for awhile. I think once I get paid on my next job, i’ll use some of it for that. Also, it’s just nice to say something that’s a bit longer than 140 characters, eh?
