Hello piercing!



As you may remember, I'd gotten this one - a snug - last summer. I really like it, and wanted to get a possible companion to it on the other side (my right ear).






Since my right ear isn't cartilage-y enough to accommodate the snug, I had a conch done instead. Yep, someone put a needle in the middle of my ear, poked it through and then put jewelry in it. It is kind of swollen, but I find that I can wear my iPhone earbuds pretty easily (sometimes it's uncomfortable - but such is life).





There is some more to it, but it could be kind of triggering for some (talking about past self-injury) -- so it'll be under a separate entry. :-)

Cute ears, cool jewelry:) In my teens I wore huge earrings in my lobes and I have my ears pierced half way up (don't know if there's a special name for that). These days I only wear a tiny ring in my right tragus.

Huh, I only have one ear-related icon. (Hi, baby Brendon;)

Thanks hon! :-D I think some of this might just be doing the experimenting I didn't get to in my college years...lol

I figure that if I get bored of them, I can always 'retire' them. Far easier than a tattoo!


(and I love your baby Brendon - looks like he's about ready to suck on Ryan's entire ear there!)
