a sign

a few weeks ago I went to have my belly ring put back in. A gruesome sounding process whereby they had to stretch the hole first because i had not worn the ring in so long that it has virtually closed up. that's all that needs to be said on that matter.

while I was there i inquired about nose rings. I have been thinking about getting a tiny diamond stud for a while and thought i'd ask what types of rings they had...and to get an honest answer about the pain factor. after seeing how darn cute the ring was and imaging how great it would look, i said what the hell...do it. So after wandering around for 30 min while they sterilized the ring, i returned to the shop only to find out the ring had broke in the process and they had no others.

I left dejected and determined that i'd have one by the end of the week.
well it's been more then a week...but tonight i tried again. Headed out on Queen in search of a tattoo shop and found one in about 4 minutes of walking. they don't do piercing...yet, but they referred me to another place only a few minutes away.

this place does piercings. but the guy isn't in until tomorrow. and they won't pierce using teenytiny studs because it's not 'hygenic' and I would have to be pierced with a larger stainless steel stud. after six weeks i could put in the diamond speck i've daydreamed about.

grrr. not sure if i should take this as a sign or that it is just a more difficult task then i anticipated it being.
