I currently don't have much of anything pierced. Just the normal stuff for a girl: ears and bellybutton. I used to have what is sometimes called a "Maddison piercing" but it became infected and I had to remove it. Well, I was very stubborn about it and had to have it surgically removed by a doctor. It wasn't fun...

I wish I could have it done again but I work with birds and it was a constant battle to keep them from pulling on it. I can't have the back of my neck done either, for the same reason. The only other piercing I've ever wanted is a lip ring, but it's not allowed in my chosen profession. The Maddison was my dream piercing and I am so glad that I can say I did it, and wore the thing for almost a year before it finally had to come out.

(My friend wanted to practice henna on me; hence the snake thing)


Now I just have two badass scars there, and I make up all kinds of wild stories about how I got them when people ask me about it. It's totally worth it.
