So long... farewell... (for now)
There's a little bit of what I would consider some slight TMI ahead, but I know that things like that just make it more enticing for you to read, so... I don't see why I'm going to put it under a cut, but I'm going to anyway...
So, I'm a little sad tonight. Most of you know I love piercings, and I love the ones that I have. Well, tonight, I have to remove one of them. My right nipple piercing just isn't healing right (again) and I think it's in the best interest of my health to take it out and let it heal over. I've noticed that over the past few months that it's been slowly moving upwards, towards the top of the nipple, and now instead of the jewelry being a 3/4" covered, it's about 1/2" covered, and that's only in about 2 weeks time.
So yeah, it's gotta go. I don't want this thing migrating all the way out and leaving me with a scar. I'm hoping to have it redone by month's end, so we'll see what happens. If I do have it redone, It'll be the third time I've gone through the procedure. It supposedly gets more and more painful each time, and the last time was pretty heavy. But ... as with all modifications, the pain can be... exhilarating...
The first time it was done by a friend of Annie's, and I kinda knew from the start that he botched it, and it was out after about a year. The second time I went to the piercer that did my other nipple (and that's had ZERO problems). And it lasted much longer, but I think the metal initially used wasn't up to par, and caused problems right out of the gate. This time, I'll go to the place where I got my PA done, which happens to be the same place I had my tattoo done. They're professional, clean, and I'm comfortable with the place. So we'll see how that goes.
If this doesn't go well at all, then I'm just gonna give up, and hopefully move on to something else. I've had my eye on getting a hafada piercing for a while... maybe it's time?...
