Well I have been wanting a piercing for a long time but never really had the nerve to go thru with it. My mom lived in Chicago and my dad lived in a small town in Michigan. We'll since it was such a small town people are totally against piercing and tattoos, so there's really nowhere to go. I was down in Chicago for 2 weeks and I had the money to do it I just needed to find a clean place to go. So after a few days of looking for a clean place to do it, I had to decide what exactly it was that I wanted. I went in looked around and because I wasn't sure what kind of piercing I wanted I asked a lot of questions and then I had narrowed it down to 3 different ones. I really wanted my tongue done so that was an option. I have a perfectly flat stomach so a navel piercing was an option. And I really liked the way my fake nose stud looked so that would be an option as well. So I sat around and picked out different jewelry I would like for the different piercing's hoping that that wou ld make my decision a little easier but it didn't. Now I was really frustrated and I just wanted them all. So I went home and decided to go out to this club I liked. I partied all night and danced till I thought my butt was going to fall off. I met up with a few friends and had a few too many drinks. I was talking to Gina about getting it done finally and she said that I should just get them all done. I wanted to but that was too many for all at one time since I hate pain. Well about 3 am came and I was ready for bed. So I curled up with my puppy and slept on it. When I woke up I had made my decision. I wanted them all. So I figured id get my tongue done first than next time I come back ill get my navel than my nose. I was so excited.

I know the name sounds bad but it's a side street in a bad part of town with tattoo and piercing places everywhere. The one place I know the owner and his guys have been doing this for 20 years so I was really trusting. So we walked in and had to sit in the waiting room for like 5 min. while jerry finished his coffee. He asked me to pick out the barbell I want to use for when the swelling went down. I picked out a pretty blue toped one and a play boy bunny one. I knew I only got one free so I set them on the counter and waked back to sit down. Before my butt hit the seat he called me back. He cleaned his hands really good while he talked to me about what things I needed to get to take care of the pierced area for the next few weeks. He asked me if I was really ready for this and he reminded me it only takes a second and not to chicken out, I came this far and he won't let me go back. By this time I wa s really freakin cuz I knew it was coming close to the time. He walked over to me and pulled a tray out of the drawer. It had everything on it he needed. He told me to stick my tongue out and count to 50. he cleaned it really good and rubbed oragel on it. After about 20 seconds he pulled out this long skinny thing with circles on the ends. He put my tongue between the clamps and squeezed, by the time I got to 50 I opened my eyes and he was screwing the ball on the bottom. I'm not sure if he went bottom or top because I didn't feel a thing.
We stood up and cleaned my drool off my chin and walked out to the front. He handed me a bag of gauze and cleaning wipes, and a bottle of mouth rinse. I went to pay for the other barbell I picked out and he said he got it. So that was cool. So Gina and I walked over to 7-11 for a slurpee. It tasted great and numbed my tongue more and kept the swelling down a lot. But I was so hungry after smelling the fast food corner, so I walked over to burger king for some fries. We ate them with very little trouble
The next few days were a little sore but not to much swelling. I had a hard time with the barbell so after 2 days I switched to my playboy one that was much shorter. But while stumbling thru the bag I found a vibrating barbell with a little note. "Hope you like it sweetie, we just got them in and I know you'll put them to work. Don't let me regret it darling. Hope all turned out well, Jerry."
The bottom line is if you want it done just do it, don't chicken out just go thru with it. I love mine and wish I would have done it a long time ago.
