Today I got an email saying my labrets are out of stock so I have to wait until they get another shipment before they send them to me. I hope it's not too long. I also finished another can of saline solution. This can lasted a lot longer than my first, now that I know how to use it haha. The first one lasted about 4 days. This one lasted 12 days. I still have 2 cans left. Hopefully they'll last for the rest of the healing time because I don't want to buy any more.

Two weeks down! I'm 1/2 to 1/3 of the way done! I ordered black labrets online today. It said the delivery is anywhere from 2 to 14 days. My left side is not really that swelled, but my right side is. I feel like that side is going to be the problem side, in that it will take a little longer to heal than the other side.

I have to remember to take my time eating, even when my stomach's in wildebeest mode. It's probably not going to get any less painful when I snag a disc with my tooth haha. Patience! I was eating at Subway and I was starving. Sandwiches are already hard enough to eat (getting easier!) and me trying to eat as fast as I can didn't help.

Bruising is all cleared up today. I'm really hoping for a 4 week (not 6 week) recovery! Nothing hurts, everything is going smoothly and it's getting much easier to eat and talk normally. It's like they aren't even there. I see a lot of friends at school tomorrow, so we'll see how they like them.

I noticed some swelling went down some because everyone in my family keeps saying the piercing is sticking out lol. It looks really weird when my lip isn't swelled.

Ugh, today. After I showered, I noticed the right stud's ball was not there. Luckily it didn't go down the drain, but instead got caught right next to the drain. I was so glad I found it but I could NOT put it in the piercing. I kept dropping it in the sink and then I dropped it and it fell beside the toilet. It took me about 10 minutes to find it because it is MICRO. But I did find it. Then I promptly dropped it again. This time I really couldn't find it. I asked Andy for help and we pulled everything out of that bathroom. We even swept to try to get it to move and make noise. We searched for an hour before giving up. I was a little panicky because I didn't want the stud to come out of the hole, even partially so I kept pushing on the disc with my tongue or I held it with my index finger. Andy and I tried to drive to the piercer ourselves but we only had the van. It stalled at the end of the block and I decided it wasn't worth it to try to make it there. So I had to wait another hour for my mom to get home so she could take me there. Of course she got mad because she always freaks out when plans change, even slightly. Example: I had a softball game at 6 and it was 5:30 when she got home. We had to go to the piercer before that (which is RIGHT beside the fields). I would understand if it were on the other end of town but it was literally on the way. Anyway, back to topic. I got to the piercer and he replaced the ball. He also said they looked good and he took a picture for his portfolio. Aww yea. Then I played my softball game.

Snakebites #1
Tuesday, July 26, 2012
No real problems today. I just have to start bringing mouthwash and saline with me so I don't get caught without it and I have some impulse food buying. I'm not sure but I think the bruising is clearing up a little. I'm going to try to make a better effort to stop playing with the discs inside of my mouth. It's not doing anything to help me.

I noticed some bruising starting on the right side of my lip (inside). I still have the vertical streak of bruising on the left side of my lip on the inside. I ran out of saline today already. I wasted a lot of it trying to figure out how it works. My dad went to martin's to buy more when I ran out. He got 3 bottles. Hopefully these last much longer because this stuff is expensive. Today the outside felt a little sore and it burned a little today. I just have to remember to wash my mouth as soon as I finish eating. After I sprayed the outside with saline, the burning went away.

Nothing really happened today except the left stud fell off. I actually screwed it in myself. Progress! It's also getting a lot easier to eat now that I'm getting used to my piercing.

My family went to Hershey Park today. Before we left, I tried to tighten my studs but ended up screwing the first one the wrong way and it came off. Damnit haha. I tried to screw it on but I couldn't. My mom couldn't either so I had Andy do it again. I had no problems at Hershey, despite riding some very intense roller coasters. The small circular bruise is now a vertical streak. Doesn't hurt, it's just noticeable if I flip my lip out.

My right stud unscrewed and fell off today. That was kinda scary. I couldn't seem to screw it in so I had Andy do it. Counterclockwise for me! Gotta remember that. I had a softball game tonight. Everything went ok which is good because on Wednesday I got hit in the mouth with a softball. Good thing I didn't get pierced on Tuesday, which was the original plan. I noticed a small circular bruise near my left disc.

I got pierced today at Yours Truly at the shopping center by Eastern Blvd, near the Weis and the Super Buffet place. It was a really clean, really cool looking shop. I got snakebites, so one piercing on each side of the lower lip. It took about 5 minutes to do paperwork and 10 minutes for the actual piercing. It was interesting. I had my mom record it lol. She's squeamish, but she did a good job, no wobbles or dropping the phone haha. When he pierced the first side of my lip, I felt nothing at all. The second one hurt a little, but it was no problem. No blood that I could tell! If I did bleed, it was easily cleaned up with a Q-tip. Once we finished, I started to pay but I felt like I was going to pass out. It was definitely a combination of getting pierced and not eating the entire day. That was also a weird experience. The lights got more powerful. Not brighter, but their rays stretched farther and farther, eventually overlapping each other. I was fully conscious, answering questions and whatnot, but I probably sounded bad because I just didn't have the energy to speak up so I mumbled everything in a monotone voice. They gave me water and jellybeans. The jellybeans pulled me right out of it in about 10 minutes. Magic! After that, my mom and I left. I have to clean the outside with Saline Wound Wash 2-3 times a day and rinse my mouth with diluted mouthwash (60% water, 40% Listerine) when I get up, go to bed and after I eat or drink anything besides water. Kind of a pain, but it's no big deal. Nothing else really happened that day.
