Patty things

[rm]

Briefly communicatedwith Patty last night via text message. She gets no days off on the dig! But now I know when I can call her and it was good to hear form her.

In Ohio we went to dinner at the house of one of Patty's closest friends. We do this every time we're in Ohio, it's always a blast, and it feels like a sort of general fail that we only manage this one a year.

You can also faintly see what I got for holidays from Patty -- which was my ears repierced. They had closed up, and it was annoying to me on those ocassions when I am dress-up girl. I got it done with a 14-gauge nedle, so I can actually put weird, thick piercing jewelry in them, and I've been wearing those horseshoe shaped circular barbells til they heal because they don't necessarily code as female.

You are the only other person I know of who's ear piercings closed on. I've had mine redone about 4 times. If I take my earings out for more than a couple of days they close up no matter how long the earings were in previously. Hmm, maybe a larger gague is what I need.

btw, you two do look adorable as alway.

I had gone months and months without wearing mine at a time, and one day I just couldn't stap and earing back through when I needed to.

Thank you!

If it makes you feel better, my mom's holes closed up on her :) Mine are pretty good about staying open, though.

One of mine closed, one didn't. The one that closed never did heal quite right. I'd like to re-pierce, but the one that *did* heal is crooked, this is annoying to me, and I tell it to everyone as a cautionary "Don't go get pierced at the mall!" story. (Hey, it was 1985, and pretty much no one knew about professional piercing back then, unless you were hardcore.)
