New Face
Today I finally screwed up the courage to go get my ears pierced. I’ve had a terrifying fear of needles since 2nd grade, when I spent a day in a hospital having blood-work done to determine whether my short stature was the result of some medial problem, or just genetic. I swear they took more blood out of me than I thought was inside of me to begin with, and ever since I’ve had a tendency to faint at sight of needles heading toward my flesh. Not today, though! The people at High Priestess were awesome and professional, and I hardly felt a thing. Now I’m feeling like a bit of a tool for putting it off so long. I went with simple little barbell jewelry with black stones for now; after they heal, we’ll see if I feel like something more adventurous.
Anyway, in the last month I’ve grown a scruffy beard, gotten a hair cut, gained glasses, and had barbells pushed through my ear lobes. I think that deserves a photo.

OMG, so sexy. I was just on the phone with you why didn’t you tell me you got them done?

Hah, I realized I’d forgotten to mention that just after we hung up and figured it wasn’t worth $1.29 or whatever just to say, “Oh, and I got my ears pierced!” Also, thank you!
