When I was working at the Austin Children's Museum my then girlfriend (now wife) Lisa gave me a birthday gift of a tattoo by an artist who traveled up to Austin from San Antonio only once a month to do special "tattoo appointments." (Sorry, but I have absolutely no recollection of the tattoo artist's name ...)
I chose the character Wolverine not only because he is a super-cool bad ass, but also because I got my undergraduate degree at the University of Michigan --- home of the "Wolverines". The U of M school colors also match those of Wolverine's old-school uniform on the tattoo.
So this tattoo has a bunch of different meanings to me. But ultimately, it reminds me of my younger self, and falling in love with the person I married.
