Me and the bestest & our Bucky in the Meadows Edinburgh
Spent the weekend with a rather special lady. Been smiling non stop since bumping into this wild one on holiday
New glasses…. Actual prescription g33k glasses. Ha!
So i had my ear scalpelled from 0mm up to 12mm. I decided on this option because i had three existing piercings none of which would stretch and be symmetrical with my other ear. The procedure itself was not overly painful. The hardest part was probably sitting still long enough to have it measured and lined up to match my other ear (my piercer is a perfectionist) The actual incision was just short of 12mm, it was a strange sort of pain and nothing scary. Then a taper was used to stretch the incision up to fit the 12mm plug perfectly. The final stretch with the taper was quite a sharp pain but i had existing scar tissue. You can see from the photos how much swelling there was. A few hours after it bled quite a lot and it did worry me, settled out by the next morning. Sea Salt soaks twice a day. Bit of advice DO NOT watch videos on youtube. i found my experience to be nothing like any of them. I would get it done again so you know it isn’t that bad. Thanks to Kyle at Old Town Tattoo, Edinburgh
Kinda scares me how good I look in drag…. Best party ever though!
G33K today!
Anniversary & Life
03/02/2012 :- six years ago today I had my civil partnership. It was on a Friday too. We split not long after, then a few years later put our dissolvement to court. We were on ok terms with each other and actually signed the paperwork over a pint and chat. We have had our ups and downs since of course, as you do.
Not too sure how I feel about this being the anniversary. Not really sure how I feel about anything at the moment. The last few weeks somethings “clicked” and I am looking at things in a whole new light. It’s certainly not a bad thing but still unsure exactly what kind of thing it is. I know I am happier now than I have been for a very long time. Not that I was a emo kid and thinking the world was against me, I would just be a “little off” most of the time.
Maybe my life’s just moving on, or perhaps I am just looking at the glass as half full instead of half empty. I know my friends have a lot to do with it. How much I appreciate them and how amazing each of them are in their own special way. Special being the key word there. Ha.
Another leg in the journey called life. Here’s to the people in the past the ones who are here now and the ones I have yet to meet.
