My once in a blue moon update

Once upon a time there was a girl. She was often accused of being a bit of a wimp, but on this particular day she defied the labels put upon her and proved her manli-ness. Maybe it was the adrenaline of a mad shopping spree, or perhaps it was the excitement of one of her girls coming into town, or possibly the sun was simply frying her brain, but she put in her 'giver teeth' and committed.

(Now that I've got you on the edge of your hopefully cushy and comfortable seat, I shall progress the rather unremarkable story)

Amy and I got matching nose piercings! (Anti-climatic? I think so).

Officially the geegiest picture ever taken.
Preparing for the pain...
... with a cylindrical glass tube inserted into one's nostril
The piercing goes in, the tube comes out, the eyes water like mad.
The finished product, post swelling.
