lobes and friends

hmmm...this life is a roller coaster, a merry-go-round, "insert favorite carnival ride here."

friends coming out of the woodwork as of late. this is valuable.

ruminating over my newly augmented lobes which are bellowing for me to remove the cold, hard, exponentially larger metal. usually one is not aware of their lobes, are they? i am not, until i plunge hefty pieces of glass jewelry, 1mm larger at a time, into the healed lobes. however, this jump, and let me tell you, was/is painful. my stretching compatriots advised me of this.

2mm extra for a jump? shouldn't be too disagreeable...it's only 2mm.

really?

yeah, really.
