ugh. i think i need to have a professional stretch my ears. i tried stretching my left lobe from a 2g to a 0g with a taper. it was fine yesterday and all today but then a couple hours ago, it started to swell up and hurt again. so i took out the taper and put back in the 2g claw that i used to have in. so now i'm back to both lobes at a 2g. i'm frustrated. it's still swollen and hurts really bad. i'm sure it'll go down....but still...blaaah.

i also didn't know that you shouldn't use acrylic or organic jewelry for actual stretching and ears that are in the process of healing. (thank you piercing group). so now i'm worried because that's all i have for my 2g's. gah. whatever. i'm tough and my body has never had a problem with any material. i'll just keep a close eye on them.

i've had my lobes at a 2g for over 3 months. i want to move on! grrr...
