Sparkly ears
I took Buffy school shopping today, and while standing in the doorway of Zumies with death metal blasting my ears at ungodly decibels, I looked over at Claires and figured getting my ears pierced would hurt a lot less than waiting for Buffy to pick out some over-priced clothes.
So I walked over and decided to get my one ear pierced on top, something I always wanted but just never got around to. Plus, Buffy would be shocked, haha. But guess what? Six months ago Santa Clara County decided that piercing ear cartiledge was considered a body piercing, meaning you can only get ear cartiledge pierced in actual body piercing/tattoo parlour type places. Which aren't really places I care to get my ear pierced in.
So instead, I decided to get my second set of ear lobe holes re-pierced. They healed over 15 years ago, as they were pierced in an odd angle and it hurt like hell to get studs through them.
So I picked out some 3mm white gold diamond studs and sat in the chair signing the papers. Suddenly I hear, "MOM! WHAT are you doing!!!" and saw Buffy standing there with a priceless look on her face - you just KNOW she knew I was about to embarrass her.
"I'm getting my nipples pierced," I said loudly, in front of several other 16 year old Claire's customers who Buffy probably knew, and I continued signing my papers.
"MOM!" Buffy hissed. "WHAT are you doing!!"
I told her to calm down, that I was just re-piercing my ears, and again I got this hilarious relieved expression on her face.
And then the lady pierced my ears, it didn't hurt a bit, and my ears are all sparkly and pretty now.
Picture to come tomorrow maybe.
But first... SCHOOL IN THE MORNING!!!! YAYYYY!!!! HURRAY!!!!!

Oh, I am SO SO glad you gave me the new link because I would have hated to miss this entry. LOVED the nipple piercing reply!
On a side note, can you even imagine how much THAT would hurt?
