I think I'm going through a quarter-life crisis...

[emyinpink]

talk some sense into me. or tell me I'm not crazy. I got my belly button pierced when I was 18. I wore a simple jewel all through college and loved it. I took it out for some reason, and never bothered wearing it again. I've been having the urge to sport it again.

AHAHAHAHAHAHA. OMG, I'm dying right now.

I swear I'm not laughing at you, but I went through the exact same thing.

My first piercing grew out, so I had to take it out.

When I was 24ish I re-pierced it. Took it out about a year later because it started growing out again.

A month or so ago I told H that I wanted to re-pierce it for the 3rd time and he looked at me like ^o)

I'm still thinking about it. ;D

You you guys all go I wanna go too.

I had mine for over ten years. I took it out with I was KU at about month six thinking it had been in so long that it wouldn't grow over. It totally did, so now I have this stupid hole and nothing in it (that's what she said). I thought about getting it done again, but it just doesn't seem to matter any more to me. If you guys all go it would give me a reason to.

[jennlin]

this is hilarious. we could start a trend. old ladies with belly button piercings.

[FrozenSunshine]

I still have mine.

Maybe it's because I'm slightly older than you crazy cats, but I'm on team "dont' do it"!!

[picksthemusic]

Well, it's your bellybutton. Does your DH like it? Are you intending to show it off? Does it make you feel good about yourself? If yes, then go fo it.

...and this is exactly why I answered "no"

[Deleted]

Maybe I'll wait and do it when I'm 40. If I have an awesome bod when I'm 40 I'm going to show off that shit!

Okay, I think belly button piercings are totally fine, but yesterday on FB I saw one of my friends had commented on a new trend, which is pierced rings. It was vomit-inducing.

As long as you don't do that, I think whatever you get pierced is cool.

YEOWCH!

I've never been a fan of "you're too old" (and I think I"m the oldest one here!)

In this case, there is a too old!

Yeah, I think it's pretty crazy. And if you all did it together, you'd all be BSC. How you like them puppy dogs and rainbows?

If this is the extent of your quarter life crisis, i think you're doing okay. .

ponders what W would think if i brought back my college era nose piercing...

I totally would, except I don't know if mine can be repierced... it feels like there is a lot of hard scar tissue between the holes

The second time I had it done I had quite a bit of scar tissue from the first time and it didn't hurt at all.

You know. Just throwing it out there.
