good luck, is it a christmas job?

I got paid to play Bop it for 1.5 hours today and beat my high score, win 8)

Pointless braggery: My Bop It only goes to 250. How do I know this? Because I'm bloody awesome at it.

I really do have one of these for every thing. He's a List entry on ear holes.

I think stretched ear shizzles should work like any other piercing - it suits some people, but certainly not everyone. I would never get a face piercing that didn't suit my facial features, mainly out of common sense and in order to not look like a twat.

ANYWAY. What made me happy today? I slept about 10 hours last night, woke up to a text message from Rich, mum got me some hot chocolate this morning, I'm packing tonight for Cardiff, and of course; Alice Cooper was confirmed as sunday headliner!

This morning's announcement - makes up for missing him in Manchester the other week! :D

And Within Temptation time tonight! I might cry if they don't play Deceiver of Fools though :lol:

The Alice Cooper announcement has made me happy...

Also the fact that my word count for NaNoWriMo is increasing quite healthily. This seemed like such a good idea when I started...
Rum.

Last.fm - just in case you want to see what I'm listening to.

On the subject of stretched ear lobes, I don't mind them if they're around the size of the second picture (Matty_the_Emo_Slayer posted), but much bigger is just daft/revolting. That little strip of flesh in the bottom picture. :hurl:

I'm not a fan of flesh tunnels bigger than 10mm. Any bigger looks too grotesque and the effect goes from being a subtle look to "LOOK HOW BIG MY HOLE IS OMG".

I personally like things like horns and spirals. Looks pretty, and the stretched aspect is more hidden away.

Personal irritation: those fimo cone stretcher things that kids wear - and if those weren't ridiculous enough, you can actually buy them 'fake', in two halves with a normal earring pin hidden in the middle and some o-rings stuck on for good measure.

I just read the post before mine, the first couple of lines that is, and felt all nasty inside.

My 'beanbag chair' turned up and it's massive, and is definitely gonna turn into one of my best investments.

My 10mm ear stretch is just right for me. I should stop looking for more jewellery for it though.

A word of advice for you, Berzerker: If it starts to hurt putting a larger gauge in, stop and wait for a few more weeks. I did this when I was over-eager when starting mine. I've now got a small bit of scar tissue at the top of mine.

BOA announcement. As I mentioned on my facebook, the best announcement BOA have ever made.
