Yay!

 So after a year of bothering my boyfriend, we'll just call him Jer, finally he let me pierce his ear!  We did a little captive bead ring on the helix.  He didn't have any piercings, tattoos, or other body modifications and has been pretty against getting any himself.  This was a big thing so I hope he likes it and it heals well for him.  I think it's super sexy.

In other news, my artist has almost finished the design for my next piece.  It's going to be an old school styled pirate ship.  He designed it kind of like a ship in the bottle and we'll add some rope and flower embellishments.  I'm hoping to cap off my right sleeve with it so that'll be nice.

My new meds are making me constantly sleepy.  I immediately notice it when I take them and I'm downing so much caffeine just to make it through the day.  It probably isn't helping that I'm working such long shifts lately.  Luckily staying busy distracts me from the sleepiness.  The only thing that's really concerning is I'm having some difficulty driving at night.  I might be getting Jer to drive me to and from until I get more settled with the new meds.

When I increased my med dose a couple of weeks ago, I was sleepy constantly, too, and kind of dopey. Then one day I got up, and all was back to normal. Well, normal for me. It's a pretty common reaction.

Yeah, I'm hoping that's what is going to happen with this one too. I'm feeling so much better otherwise that I'm cool with being sleepy a bit. :)
