yep, 4 gauge... it was pretty damn intense because I didn't have the room for it, I have a tiny septum you see. I was at 6 for about a year and didn't even really intend to stretch, but I decided eh, what the hell. I'd had my jewelry out for about 8 hours anyway, so I shouldn't have been stretching it then anyway... it ripped. It was, well, painful to say the least but hey. My nose was super distorted, so I decided to let it go back to normal anyway haha.

What do you mean they'll pay for your ticket? I mean, obviously it's what it says, but why is that?

An inch for a lobe is pretty big... I'll probably go to 3/4" of an inch, but then when I started a couple/few years ago I said I wouldn't go past 0ga. So who knows... I just want nice hollow lobes, which I'm very near. Still a little thick on the bottom though. 6ga piercing is pretty big, are you planning on stretching up a size to minimize bleeding?

and, oh yeah, a full body suit? Jeez, that's a whole lot of ink, many many hours. even your peepee?! haha. I really dig bright, bold colors and thick outlines, which I'm beginning to see more and more of these days, but I really dislike new skool type of graffiti work and whatnot... it just looks... well, ugly to me. What style are you going with the body suit, where are you starting, etc?

Starting at the ankles, working my way up.

No pee pee ink, but the pubic region is a definite go.

It's going to be all black and white work. It sounds bad, but I'm going with a "primitive" non-tribal design. It's going to look really awesome.

I don't know why they're going to pay for my tickets, but why look a gift horse in the mouth?

I was originally going to take my septum up to half an inch, but I'm just not down for a dermal punch through cartilage. My "sweet spot" is pretty large and in charge, so I have room to safely go to about zero before I run out of floating cartilage to stretch.

I love hollow lobes, but my favorite look for stretched ears is wearing a single piece of large gauge jewelry through the hole and letting the skin naturally 'dangle'. A lot of people think it's disgusting, but it's very aesthetically appealing to me.

I'm not quite down with that look, but I don't find it disgusting by any means. Starting at the ankles eh? Sounds like a damn fine idea... Want to get the career in line, but not skip on the festivities at first?

I'm about to get some new ink, I've been craving it for about a year and a half since I had my last ink... damn, it's nuts. Once that bug bites you you'll never live it up until you run out of room. I'd love to get some of those new Kaos tunnells, if I had the money. Well, Sunday I'm going to Birmingham, AL to do a Dell computer install that pays 100 bucks a day. So, right on.

Oh, about the ink... No tribal huh? I like tribal alright, but I think it's a bit too cliche and overrated. Black and white is good though... did you actually mean black and white, or more like black and grey shading? That looks really nice too, I'd love a good big piece of Black and Grey, but I'm just too into color for my sleeves to be B&G.

I hate tribal.

It's just plain ugly, in my opinion.

When I said black and white I meant black ink and minimal amounts of white ink. Of course the 'open' spots on my body that fit into the general flow will be white as well.

I'm irish, so I'm pretty pale myself... though I pretty much have a year round farmer's tan.
