So, I'm thinking about this...

jan_andreaI turned 30 on June 17th. Into my fourth decade, hurrah!
I have been considering a small nostril piercing to celebrate. There's a place just up the street that does piercings. I've read up on it, and it sounds like the nostril is a fairly easy one to have done. I think I'd want a pretty small stud, rather than a ring. But I don't want it to look stupid, and I don't want to regret it in a couple of years. And I also don't really want certain family members (mostly Nana) to flip out if/when she sees it.
So, what do you think? Is this a passing pre-mid-life-crisis? Would I be a poser? Would teenagers laugh at me? Would Sophia yank it out of my nose? Should I try wearing bindi there for a while and see if I like the look of it, before taking the plunge? Help me decide, for I am the queen of indecision!

I'm going to get mine done at some point, but I'm waiting for after my cousin's wedding so I don't shock my poor mom. :)
Oh, and hi, btw. I'm Barbara, Jamie's mom, from m.k.* groups. :)
