I sincerely hope you don't mean literally 'every' ... ouch. Although I have seen some specimens walking around downtown that cause me to wonder how they manage to function when it comes time to deal with basic survival maintenance.

The hair dying is okay to me. Hair grows back in its original color, LOL. But piercings leave holes, so lip, eyebrow, and nose piercings bother me. Piercings where the sun don't shine are okay :lol: And I confess to triple pierced ears myself. :? But the little dimple where the hole is does not go away, so that is why I don't like them on your face. :|

At least, you had a little dimple for something you wanted. I remember I lost an earring when I was a child. I didn't replace it and the hole, of course, closed. So my mother had to do another hole, with a pin. She didn't find the right spot and now I have a little dimple beside my earring. :roll:

Personally I find piercing weird. I finally got my ears pierced right before my wedding just because I thought I probably ought to finally wear earrings for the occasion, and I can't stand clip ons. Now I'm stuck wearing something in those stupid little holes for the rest of my life at least often enough to keep the stupid little holes from closing before the next time I really need to wear earrings.

My stepdaughter meanwhile had a bellybutton ring (which got pretty badly infected which thankfully stopped the piercing fad for her), the usual ear piercings, and she's slowly gathering tattoos as the years go by. Her husband, a Staten Island boy, is already fully illustrated.

How did this evolve into piercings!? :lol:

Anyhow....Yes I plan on finding out. It makes it easier to buy stuff.

As far as pink or blue....I'm thinking nigher. Since I'm into my Scottish heritage I'd like to do something cute but Scottish for the nursery. I'm thinking Scottie dogs and bit's of Tartan.

I got a book on how to crochet different Tartans....and I'm thinking I'm going to make a baby blanket into the Dress Stewart.


Congrats on your wee one enterprikayak! I think I'm due sometime in early Dec, since I'm fairly certain (thanks FAM!) I conceived around the 20th of March.
