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. :-)
