As the sign and signal of virtue, Avocado went today to get her nostril pierced. Nice, clean, perky place (perky people with major tats and piercings) where Nicki cleaned the girl's nose to a farethewell, explained everything, giggled pleasantly at how excited and giggly Avocado was, and did the deed in about a nanosecond. Now it's six weeks of saline soaks and grins. The stud she selected is rose gold, tiny and glittery. She looks adorable, and boy howdy is she pleased with herself.

Somewhere my mother, who didn't want me to get my ears pierced, is doing a quick 360° of dismay. And my father, who was the one who took me to get my ears pierced when Mom was out of town, is clucking with satisfaction and saying "You look very nice, kid."
