Alas, it is done!

At A Glance Author Jason Contact Fourhess@juno.com Artist Georg Studio High Priestess Location Eugene, Oregon

I saw the $10 special on all piercings ( jewelry not included) and knew it was once again time to get modified. I had seen the ad in the paper which had been sitting on the break table at work and decided to see if any of my coworkers were interested in going with me. To my surprise Michelle had already been to High Priestess many times and was pretty excited about going back to have something new done.

I already had one piercing, my first professional job; a foreskin piercing from about two years ago. I had always known that I would eventually get several more and my lovely wife was supportive and was looking forward to the surprise as well. I wasn't yet sure what kind of piercing I was going to get so I consulted with my wife and we decided that I would surprise her.

I met two friends from work at the shop and looked over the magazines and photo albums to help decide exactly what we wanted to do. One of my friends was considering getting her first genital piercing so she was looking at which one she might like while my other friend was telling her how great her triangle had been for her. The more she looked at the pictures the less she looked like she was going to go through with it. Meanwhile the piercer whom my friend had already seen had come over to offer his expertise and assistance.

Georg is a highly experienced piercer who made me feel very much at ease and answered questions for us for about a half-hour. He helped me decide on a hafada and I showed him a cbr I had and wondered if I could use it for my new piercing. He said he was very reluctant to use any jewelry which he could not personally guarantee for a genital piercing but that he would put it in the autoclave and maybe I could use it for some other piercing if I so desired. I decided I would go in right after the game the next day.

Sunday rolls around and I am nervous as hell, or maybe half nervous, half excited. Any way, I get down to the shop and fill out my paperwork. I had already shaved and was ready to go. My adrenaline was already flowing and everything seemed a little dreamlike as I waited for Georg to finish the girl ahead of me. I paced the shop and waited nervously, the time was at hand.

Georg ushered me into the room and told me to get ready. "You know the drill", he said, so I sat down and took off my pants as I was thinking how strange it was that a man I barely knew just told me to take my pants off and here I was doing it and not feeling awkward at all.

He said he would throw in a free piercing if I wanted to use the ring I had brought in. "How about the nipple", he said. "No way", I replied with both of my hands covering my breasts ( odd, I am looking forward to having a fairly large piece of metal shoved into my scrotum yet the idea of a piece of metal in my nipple is unacceptable). I told him to put it in my ear and he said he would prep me up and do the ear first. I was still nervous, but once I laid down Georg made me feel very at ease as he explained what he was doing every step of the way. He pierced my left ear and said it would get the endorphins flowing for the next piercing. He was right, they were flowing and I was ready. We discussed placement and he offered some advice based on experience and I told him basically anywhere from the base of the shaft to the bottom of the scrotum was fine since what I eventually wanted to do was a ladder.

" Are you ready?", he asked, " bring it on", I said. " You will feel a little sting", he told me to take a deep breath and then he would do it on the exhale. Boom! The needle was in and it wasn't terribly painful. Then he inserted the cbr which was a little painful but by then the endorphins were in full effect and everything was fine.

I am the man!, I did it! (that may have been the endorphins talking at that point). I was very excited. A few seconds to catch my breath, a cup of juice and some kind words for Georg the expert piercer and I was on my way. I was riding a wave of joy all the way home, feeling the rush of the experience and the elation at having my new jewelry.

My friends from work never showed, one of them fell asleep and the other just sort of chickened out. I told her that's OK, you shouldn't do it until you are very ready anyway.

I love my new piercing and so does my wife. I tried to trick her and say I just got the ear done, but then I showed her my beautiful new jewelry and she said she loved it. It has been a week and so far they are both healing very nicely as I am making sure to follow all the procedures. My wife read over all the literature and has helped to remind me of what I need to do to ensure proper healing so we can both enjoy our new toy.

Well, thanks for listening and Happy Piercing
