Lame or no?

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.

i am the lame bearer of a tramp stamp and a belly buttonn ring. :D

but, I think midriff bearing is reallly tacky.

Have you made sure that they *can* pierce the same spot with scar tissue and all? There must be something in the LJ air. I spent over 5 minutes the other day determining that my nose piercing was indeed closed.

I say not lame because I've been dying for a bellyring for forever and at 35 with no more pregnancies on the horizon I'm considering getting it done. It's for me and a lot more reversable than any form of surgery, which I am also considering.

i had mine pierced when i was 22 and took it out before going to the mikveh when i was marrying michael... i'd never taken it out before and i decided to take it out for good, partly because michael wasn't into it, partly because i wanted to go to the mikvah again and the idea of putting it in and out was weird to me. LAME! i kind of miss it sometimes... i don't know.

anyway, if you want to do it you should do it, and since i'm always behind on lj you've probably already done it anyway!

fucking caleb is up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
