Things previously unattainable.

And now for a slightly back-to-normal post.

Turns out one of the talons is slightly bigger than the other. So I put the one from my left ear (the slightly smaller one) into my right ear and stretched it. The one from my right ear is now in my left and is sitting in there nicely, if not as stretched as it could be will be as soon as my ears stop being sensitive and sore. All this, however, is making me nervous for the stretch to 6g (4mm). Which I think is a slightly bigger jump than from 8g (3.2mm?) to 3.5mm or so. But I've wanted to get to 6g for the longest time -- it's also where I plan to stop, so only one stretch left!

While talking on the phone earlier today I realized I'd have to use my hand instead of the side of my head to hold the phone for a while.

In addition, does anyone remember that Sailor Moon (blue and orange) messenger bag that I had been desperate to get a couple months ago? The one I bid $60 on and still lost at the last second? Well! I won it this Saturday (with many thanks to koyappi and Anita) for a whopping $16.50! I received it today in the mail and I STILL cannot credit it!!! Thank god for people who don't know any better than to end an auction for a collectible on a Saturday afternoon when no one is at home bidding on it.

Don't you even feel a little guilty preying on the innocent and unsuspecting? ::rolls eyes:: Oh was it the same seller as the last time? If so, what if they knew, and wanted to give someone a cheap-shot, EEEh?? XD

[osaraba]

Nope. =D

I doubt it was the same seller, although I can't be sure because I can't find the auction since it's been over 3 months since it was sold last. I tried. Hah.

I'm going to assume you're being sarcastic with your last line. =P

Yay! I'm glad you got the bag! Now you have to look for one for me. XD Teehee.

What do you mean you can't "credit" it? ::confuzzled::

Also, good luck with your ears. ;)

[osaraba]

I'm still definitely going to keep my eye out for another one. =D

Credit (verb used with object) means to believe, put credence in, that kind of thing. It was late; I was sleepy -- my olde English turns-of-phrase rear their heads when I'm tired. ^^;

My ears are still sore. =( I want them to hurry up and heal.

Oh yeah, I was going to link to this as an example in-context. Search for "credit".
