Trend Setter

Two of my friends got their noses pierced this week. I like to think I inspired them, but I don't know if that's at all true since the only similarities in our piercings are the holes themselves. Both ladies got studs put in the right side of their nose, in the indent. My left nostril is pierced (about halfway to the indent), and I wear both studs and hoops.

I got mine done seventeen years ago(!) and wore it diligently for about 3 years. In the mid-nineties, I stopped wearing it for about a six months stretch. I don't remember the exact day I took it out, but I remember trying to wear it again and not having any problems. I started wearing it intermittently after that.

There seems to be a resurgence of people with noserings. Is it all because of me?
