love song


So this came out in 2006 or 2007 in a book called "Force in the Flesh."  It was a collection of photos and biographies of people with Star Wars tattoos.  Heath and I were lucky enough to be featured in the book... and we were the only couple to share a page.  Just wanted to memorialize it here on my blog...  This isn't a revelation because it's something that I've known since I met him:  I am beyond blessed to have met and married Heath Williamson.  We were living 350 miles apart when we met and the Lord orchestrated our meeting.  He is a "Wild at Heart" kinda guy... and I kinda dig it.

From Force in the Flesh by Shane Turgoen: 
Rarely do you find a marriage in which both partners share a common interest in Star Wars. Rarer still is finding a couple who love the saga enough to tattoo themselves in related imagery.. That's just what Heath and Buffy Williamson have done with their theamed Clone Wars tattoos. When the acclaimed animated Clone Wars micro-series began airing, Heath and Buffy found themselves drawn to its rich and unique animation style. Heath was particularly taken by how Yoda was portrayed and it was the strong portrayal of the female Jedi that Buffy found most appealing. By the time they were done, Heath's plan for a simple animated Yoda tattoo soon turned into an entire Clone Wars half sleeve and Buffy had images of several female Jedi tattooed on her arm. Heath is also an avid collector of Star Wars memorabilia, everything from vintage and modern action figures to prop replicas and statues. He considers his tattoos to be a unique part of his collection that he can take with him wherever he goes. Since the completion of his half sleeve, Heath has added stylistic tattoos of a Jawa and an Ewok to his tattoo collection and has plans for additional Star Wars tattoo designs. In the meantime, both he and Buffy continue to share in their love of Star Wars and more importantly, their love of each other.
