punching holes in my ears.

I now have 2 holes on each ear. [Actually, this was done at least 4 or 5 months ago.] I don’t think this was much of an event. But it was important to me that I got my ears re-pierced. Why? Well World, this may have been a frivolous reason, but I couldn’t wear certain earrings correctly. My earrings would lift in a weird way because the holes were too high. This, of course, was because I had my ears pierced when I was a baby.

I was actually pushed into doing this. I know it was on my 24 before 24 list, but I didn’t feel ready to do so. I had never gotten anything pierced before in my adult life! I was anxious, sweaty, grumpy… it wasn’t the right time for me, or so I thought. My earrings were already on, before the anxiety started to kick in. It took 2 seconds per ear after the marking dot was place. Wow. My “highly trained” ear pierced at the mall establishment called, the Piercing Pagoda, was actually grumpy at first then she got quite lovely. She was putting herself through school for a degree in music one ear at a time.

Now I can cross this off my list!
