Soo... got my tongue pierced today.

It hurt.  It wasn't unbearable pain or anything, but it definately wasn't pleasant.  I didn't experience the adrenaline rush that most people apparently get from body piercings.  I just got a painful pinching feeling, an uncontrollable amount of saliva, and a weird new way of talking.

The swelling should go down in a few days and in a week or two, it should be healed enough that I can change the bar.

It's a good thing I had Mexican food for lunch before I got the piercing.  For the next week at least:  no hot spicy food, and no other food with lots of spices and seasonings (like spaghetti sauce, for instance).

My Daddy loves me and went out to the store to get plain chicken broth, chicken noodle soup (for when chewing actually becomes an option), slim fast shakes, and plain vanilla ice cream.  ^_^  I'm gonna have a fun day on the couch tomorrow, provided my tongue isn't exploding from pain.

Ciao, homies!
