Chino pants and earrings

Things are going well up here. I'm looking for things to do and keep me out of trouble until a show comes crashing down. Keeping on top of homework, so far been done with things a day before they are due which is a huge improvement from 40 minutes before class. Lot of reading, so far I've read 3 scripts and half a textbook and still have an equal amount of that left for the rest of the quarter.
I went shopping this weekend and bought some 'interview' clothes. New York & Company is having a ridiculous Buy One Get One Half off and 60% off other items sale so I got 2 pairs of Chino pants (in black and tan) a big black belt. Macy's had some beautifully professional heels for $59. I liked them enough to bite the bullet. Get this, They were 40% off and they only had the floor display in my size so she took another 10%. $59 shoes for $29! I'm learning! Now all I need is a top and I'll be ready for Grad School interviews or just job interviews.

Yes, I did get my ears pierced. I feel kinda girly now. I got it done at a local tattoo parlor because I had heard the needle was less painful and healed faster than shooting a blunt object through your ear with a piercing gun. I think I psyched myself out more than I should have, just two deep breaths and then it only felt like I the bottom half of my ears had fallen asleep. They have me soaking them in warm water and sea salt which feels amazing, and rinsing with saline solution. The info sheet they gave me says 3 times a day for 15 minutes. After 5 minutes the water starts to get a little luke warm and you feel like an idiot with a cup of water cupped around your ear. I can't wait to start collecting new earrings!
