PICTURES!!! mad
( woot! )

i'm still trying to work with this shitty-assed digital camera...the septum retainer's so small (12g) that it doesn't show up too well unless i hold my nostrils up. the piercing's still kinna tender right now, so i'ma wait till later tonight to try and take another picture.

it'll be visible once it heals and i put in a proper captive ring.

i have a niobium booger in my nose now!!! horns

well, it's not really a booger, it just kinna feels like one; i've got a niobium septum retainer in my nose, so it'll stay outta sight when i go to work (can't have a full-out captive ring in the office...wish i could evillol)


Interesting that they're okay with visible ink, but not with piercings. OTOH, you really can't ask an employee to remove a tattoo while at work. smile

actually i just got in to work--i walk to work every day, and surprisingly my retainer didn't freeze at all. when i get a captive ring put in it'll probably be a whole different story. lol

for the next couple months i gotta dip my nose in this salt water concoction 2 to 4 times a day to clean out the piercing so it'll heal quicker...that's gonna be weird as hell. lol


woot!

Yay!!

Yeah, it is a good kinda hurt. redface Last time I got pierced he told me to walk over to the mirror to see what I thought and I couldn't yet stand up, I was so dizzy w/endorphins or whatever. giggle I don't know what it is, but it makes me feel high for a few hours after, even. When I had my nipples done I went to a friend's after and they could tell I wasn't quite right yet. I stay dizzy for a while.

Heh... my theory is that one's body heat keeps the jewelry warm enough to prevent this from happening. I used to worry about it during my first Indiana winter after getting pierced, but I never had any problems.
