I just turned 50. I thought it would be more momentous, fireworks, bells and whistles and all that crap. Turns out, I went shopping with my Mom, and got my ears pierced. AT THE TOP! How crazy it that, right?
The assistant manager at Claire's, (who was all of 18), mentioned that if you got both sides pierced at the same time, you could possibly have trouble sleeping. I dismissed her concerns. I mean, I am a grown woman who has had 2 babies, been thrown off a horse, had a REALLY mad cat attack my arm instead of the dog, and other injuries that you will probably hear about later. How bad could it be? I'm tough!
She was right.....and I am an idiot. Unless you 're flat on your back, looking straight up, or flat on your stomach, with your face in the pillow, it HURTS! I haven't metioned to my sweet hubby why I am having so much trouble sleeping, because I don't want to hear it!
