Status:  Stitches came out of my nose on a wussy nose blow (I’m only allowed wussy ones to date – still really sore and healing up there in the nasla cavity, fyi), in a tissue – duh, from my nose.  Gross.  But I was excited.

Weight Watchers:   sucks.  I’m starving, I’m staying the same weight.  One of my galpals texted me and said, “I ate 62 points, can we quit now?”  We’re allowed 26 points.  I said, “NO”.  Even though I ate 32 points today.  I HAD TO.  Going off Effexor makes you nauseous, you gotta do what you gotta do.

I went for my second post-op to the ENT (Ear/Nose/Throat doctor) for my sinus surgery and this is what I came out with:

I had to get my ears repierced.

I got my ears originally pierced when I was about 14 or so.  One ear has been pierced just fine since then.  The ear on the right has always been iffy.  It’s a fatter earlobe to be honest.  Hey, NO JUDGING.  So I asked the doctor (surgeon) to check it.  He said there was a granuloma in it (scar tissue from previous infection/trauma).  He could surgically remove it.  Forget that, I’ll just repierce around it.  Like I haven’t had enough surgeries ir order just get my fat arse out of bed each day.  I wouldn’t give a fiddler’s fart about my pierced granuloma ear if I didn’t have gorgeous earrings my hubby bought me.

So off I went to “Piercing Pagoda” at the mall (I could think of no other place) to get repierced.  The girl was no rocket scientist, though I wasn’t expecting one.  She was a loud talker and a close talker.  Darned good thing she didn’t have man hands or I would have had to leave on the spot.   Ticked me off right off the bat.  She put a dot of purple Magic Marker stuff on my ear to OK the spot.  I OKed the spots.  I picked out the earrings.  They are no longer $9.99 like they were when Andrea had her ears pierced. They are $61.99!  Nickel free.  Which I need.  So she loaded and cocked that piercing gun and fired ‘em  both.  I asked a Japanese boy standing there watching in quiet to take my pic.

I now have two newly pierced ears with pearl earrings made for babies because I didn’t like the cubic zirconias they had for adults.  Since I have such small “baby”-sized earrings, one can still see the purple markings behind the earrings.  Great.  It’s not coming off.  Oh, and let me mention that the piercings ARE CROOKED.  Just saying.

Love,
