Lame or no?

[lalicopa]

I had my navel pierced when I was 20. I loved it. I only took it out once when I had surgery and then it was back in until my second trimester with Laszlo, at which point it looked like if I did NOT remove it, it would work its way out and shoot across the room.

I tried wiggling it back in after he was born, but no success. And I've missed it ever since, even at my heaviest.

So now that I'm *almost* at midriff bearing weight/shape, I want to get it redone. Is that lame at 36 years old? Like how I feel when I see this woman at the gym with her bright tramp stamp that she always makes sure is showing? I guess it doesn't really matter, because *I* dig it, but I don't want to seem like such a washed up momma who is clinging to any trace of hotness that once existed.

Also, I should mention that I still have the hole there and it's not so pretty. I remember reading that if you wanted the hole to go away, it would require an outpatient procedure in a doctor's office. So I've had a hole in my belly for 6 years. My friend pointed out how much nicer a piece of jewelry would look than the hole. I think she just might be right.

how do i do it? (ETA never mind. woo!)

and is that you in your icon? i don't know why i'm asking, i dont even know you. i'm just curious. sometimes i will think that someone's icon picture is them for a hundred years and then find out it isn't and i can't stop picturing the person that way. this actually kind of happened with someone even after i met her once, the connection was so strong in my mind. /babble

Yeah it's me. I have a metric ass ton of self pic icons because I'm either very vain or very self conscious. I haven't decided.

Ellen, meet Leen...she's crazy young, but you'll forget that in a second because she's wicked smart and funny as hell.

Leen, meet Ellen...she's super cool and is another tri-state momma.

You've both got that medical thing going for ya...oh, and the bisexual thing too. hmmm...I wonder if it's me?
