true confession

Here's a riddle for you:




What do I have in common with Harrison Ford and George Michael (of Wham fame NOT of Arrested Development)?


Answer: We are all sporting the one-earring look. Let me explain - I lost the back of one of my earrings and I thought (because as we all know I'm trying to accessorize more) that this was a good time to mix things up a bit like maybe not always wearing diamond earrings 24-7. The problem? I cannot get the back off the other earring. I've tried. Greg tried. We haven't resorted to pliers yet but we're looking into it. And because these are diamond earrings they require a special back and I don't have one.

So in the meantime . . . and this is where we get to the true confession part I have resorted to my double pierced ears. I know and don't judge me because I haven't sported the two earring in one ear look since the famous President Hinckley talk. But I am now so desperate that I put one earring in my one ear and I sported my diamond earring and the matching earring in my other ear. I know - I looked ridiculous but otherwise I look in the mirror and all I can say is "wake me up before you go-go."

That explains the singing this morning. I just thought you were excited to go-go to work.

Krissi, you make me laugh all the time. I saw you yesterday with one earring out but I didn't look at your other ear. I guess you just had one in. You are absolutely crazy. By the way, while we were in St. George it is midnight and your Dad has the TV on and he is watching The Fugitive. He falls asleep and I am left watching that scary show until 2:00 a.m. I like Harrison Ford, one earring or not.

Just please don't cut off your ear to spite your face!

I hear you on pierced ear troubles. At least your not still sporting the belly ring.

I thought what you had in common with Harrison Ford and George Micheal was advaced age, fleeting fame, and a pulbic scandal to stay in the media. Now you may be asking yourself "what has Harrison done? (or WHHD?)" Um, hello??? He is seeing a woman (Calista Flockhart) who is a fraction of his age. If that's not scandalous I don't know what is. Is it as scandalous as you and all your many piercings? I'm not judgy so that's not for me to say.

Oh please - Harrison Ford is not that scandalicious. Especially compared to George Michael.
