I am going to tell you the story of my first Prince Albert, which is also my first "below the belt" modification. It was a rainy day. The clouds were gray and it was just cold as hell. I had nothing to do. I had been thinking about getting a new piercing, for it had been nearly 6 months since my last. My girlfriend had been bugging me to get something done to my penis. I really didn't want to, but the more I thought about it the more I liked the idea. Having something only I and I selected few could know about and see. And I figured it would be a nice surprise for her. Kinda like a present, in some odd way. So there I was, getting into my care to the local tattoo/piercing parlor.

I HAD an eyebrow right which I took out cause it got too mainstream or whatever. I have my tongue pierced, which is at a 12 g barbell right now. I have some various tattoos covering my body. I have a tribal tattoo on my left shoulder. I like that one; it's my favorite. Then lower I have a barbwire like tattoo. On my chest is a huge eagle thing. I hate that. On my back is a big tribal design that my girlfriend designed for me. Then on my other arm is a hippie sun and ocean spraypaint style tattoo that I hate also.
The drive downtown to the shop was extremely long for some reason. I think I was really anxious to get this done. I each stop light felt like an hour. I decided to throw on some music. I looked through my CD collection in my car. Where's that damn CD? Ahh, there it is. I popped in an old Operation Ivy CD and just relaxed. It's about 35 min to the nearest CLEAN studio.
The shop I was going too is what I believe to be the cleanest shop in all Syracuse. I knew one of the guys who used to work there, and I got to chill out with him at the studio. Just by hanging out I saw how sterile and clean the place was kept. I had a lot of confidence going here, knowing that it would be a safe experience.
I entered the shop. I decided that a curved barbell would look nice and feel the most comfortable. I approached the, and shamefully told him I had come to get myself a Prince Albert. To my surprise his eyes lit up and he told me he had one and loved it. I figured that this would be cool, and also satisfy my desire for a new piercing for a while. I was a little nervous about exposing my manhood to him. I mean, I hardly knew the guy, but I figure he's pierced a lot of guy's dicks before, why should I be special. So when the time came removed my pants, and lowered my boxers.
He took a cotton swab and rubbed the purple ink on the underside of my penis and all over the head of it. I started to get that awesome feeling right before you get a piercing. I wanted this so bad. He had me check the placement. He choose the spot and I didn't argue. Next he inserted the receiving tube. That was a new experience, felt interesting, to say the least. It's definitely the first time I've had a little hollow metal tube inserted in my urethra. Next came the needle. It was a 14 g needle. He took no hesitation to place it and insert it. Following the needle came the ring. It didn't hurt as much as I anticipated. Felt kinda good actually. The ring met up with the receiving tube and was lead out the head of my penis. Smooth procedure. He cleaned up; I paid, and went home.
I got home to find my girlfriend back watching TV. I was so excited to show her. I told her I had a surprise for her. I went into my room, and well, I won't get into details, but I showed her. She loved it. It was a big sore, so we didn't do much fooling around. But she checked it out and loved it. I felt awesome.
It hurt for about 5 days on and off. It didn't shift at all I believe. I took good care of it, cleaning it often. I didn't get infected, although I got close at one point. Urinating stung for a day or so, but nothing to bad. Now I've had it for about 5 weeks and I love is almost as much as my girlfriend does.
