this thing on my face

I took the plundge since moving to SF. I chopped my hair, changed my underwear preference (im not going to divulge how), and got a big piece of metal in my lip. As my wonderful friend Combs states, its not so much in my lip, its more b/w my lip and chin. Its on my left (when you look at me its on the right). Its on my left because i feel more "balanced" with things on my left, but thats getting into a whole different messed up part of myself.

I find this little piercing quite adorbale (hence the reason i put it in my face), but it has caused me a few problems. Mainly when I am doing things quickly with my mouth (does that sound bad). For instance, speaking quickly on the phone, eating too fast without any regard to the post inside my gum, or intimant moments with a certain someone (who am i kidding, change that to plural).

This small metal ball has gotten pulled back into my lip numerous times, where as I pause whatever im doing to push it back through. Attractive huh?! I wonder if this is ever actually going to stop, or will I always have to be cautious. Maybe its a sign my body is shouting at me. Along with that shout Im sure its telling me to get my ass on the tred mill.
