To get over the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day, (and to celebrate my sales spree last week) I went and let someone stab me with needles!

I’ve been wanting a second hole in my ears. I have one hole in the lobe and the left tragus pierced, but that’s it. Nothing else. Not even a nose, bellybutton, or eyebrow. Or anything, ya know, else.

Anywho…on to the documentation of pain!

My fun piercer from Iris Piercing named Dustin. If you’re in Salt Lake City, they’re a great place even for wimps like me! He was very patient with the fact that I had to photograph the experience. And I think when I told him I was an erotica author, I freaked him out. I kind of doubt he’s had a lot of us in Utah–I was his first! (Not the first guy I’ve ever said that about, but that’s another story!) I told him he’d be featured on my blog, so if you see this, HI, DUSTIN!

A slightly blurry before picture. Note only two piercings.

And the after shot: tragus, first ring, second ring. I don’t know if you can see it, but the titanium varies around the ring from purple to teal. They colored the ring to my specifications while I stood and watched. It was pretty cool.

I have to say the first side hurt A LOT less than the second one. Dustin said it’s because the body hadn’t had time to fully register the pain, but when you get to the second one it’s ready to scream, “Oh, hell no, bitch! Are you crazy? Stabbing is bad!”

1	Awww cute! I’m a wuss I don’t like people punching holes in me. by Dana May 21st, 2008 at 3:31 pm ♦

2	I’m not a fan, but I’ve been wanting a second hole for a while, so why not? by Crystal Jordan May 21st, 2008 at 3:35 pm ♦

3	dude. what about your nose? I thought you were joining the nose parade? by Mel-O-Drama May 21st, 2008 at 3:37 pm ♦

4	I’m still contemplating that, but I was afraid if I put too many punctures in my head in one day, I might start leaking like a holey bucket. Definitely going back to Dustin for the nose if I can gird my loins for that by Crystal Jordan May 21st, 2008 at 3:39 pm ♦

5	It looks awesome! :D At some point, I want to get my nipples pierced. I am sooo not looking forward to the pain involved with that. (Well. Maybe I am. A little. ^_^) by Nonny May 21st, 2008 at 3:40 pm ♦

6	Umm…when my cousin got her nipples done, she had an orgasm. So, it might be a WHOLE different experience than you’re expecting. Just sayin’ Bet her piercer was shocked to be getting her O-Face. by Crystal Jordan May 21st, 2008 at 3:42 pm ♦

7	Dustin looks cool lol And you are very brave! Looks great! by R.G. Alexander May 21st, 2008 at 3:42 pm ♦

8	Hey, if I have to choose between orgasm and extreme pain… I’ll take the former, thanks! ;) by Nonny May 21st, 2008 at 3:44 pm ♦

9	RG–thanks for picking up the phone while I was waiting. I almost chickened out and ran! Nonny–TOOOOtally. by Crystal Jordan May 21st, 2008 at 3:45 pm ♦

10	Oh, nice! It’s pretty. And Dustin seems nice. Nice face. :D Um, what’s the difference between that piercing and a regular old ear piercing? by Bethanne May 21st, 2008 at 4:02 pm ♦

11	Love it. I have 3 holes in each ear, which is down from having 4 in one and 5 in the other. I let some of my holes grow up….boy that sounds kinda kinky. LOL by Shonna Brannon May 21st, 2008 at 4:07 pm ♦

12	Bathanne–The tragus? It actually doesn’t hurt because it’s through cartilage, but takes forever to heal because there’s also no blood flow. Shonna–Naughty girl. by Crystal Jordan May 21st, 2008 at 4:15 pm ♦

13	Oh! I love it!! by Feisty May 21st, 2008 at 5:00 pm ♦

14	Thanks, Feisty! by Crystal Jordan May 21st, 2008 at 5:05 pm ♦

15	Looks great! Be careful to leave it in a nice long time. When I got one of my lobes pierced a second time I left an earring out for two days (after at least 4 months) and the hole disappeared overnight without a trace. The color sounds cool! Jen by Jennifer Lewis May 21st, 2008 at 6:51 pm ♦

16	I like to leave my earrings in all the time, which is why I went to a piercing parlor because I didn’t want piercing studs or studs at all since the poke in during sleep. by Crystal Jordan May 21st, 2008 at 7:12 pm ♦

I had my third hole done twice. They both closed and I gave up, just the two now. I want to get the nose redone, but I sleep on my stomach, with my face stuffed into the pillow (I’m surprised I can breathe), and am afraid of it falling out again. Of course, she never showed me how to put it back in if it did fall out, but that’s another story.

It looks great. It looks like it would be painful. You are a brave, brave girl.

18	Nose piercings can FALL OUT? I was thinking of getting one, but I’m a stomach and side sleeper myself, so that would be an issue. Sleeping tonight with both sides newly pierced will be…special. by Crystal Jordan May 21st, 2008 at 9:18 pm ♦

19	> Which is precisely why I only had one nipple done. wink I am a wuss. Of course, I did all my lobe piercings (all 5 of them) myself — with just ice cubes, a needle, and a couple shots of Jack Daniels. So, maybe I’m not a total wuss. by Alessia Brio May 22nd, 2008 at 3:19 am ♦
