there is to be no nibbling on my earlobes until at least march, possibly longer.

i went and bought 5 18 gauge captive bead rings on saturday night, and had them put in. (kryss, at inklab. a very nice lady.) many of the holes were just fine, but the newst one of them had to be stretched a little bit. it's still kind of sore, and kryss said that i should treat them all like new piercings. so, antibac soap, occasional spritzes of ear piercing cleaner, and no one gets to lick them. i've lost piercings that way; no more!
