Verbal Snapshot
Nine pairs of earrings, lovingly handcrafted in the last two days, dangling from one of my bucket chairs (maybe I'll go into business if this actuary thing doesn't work out).
I'm drawing a blank on what your bucket chairs look like. I am puzzled- I thought you were unpierced. Yes? No?
I think if the actuary thing doesn't work out, you should take your music collection and become a DJ at a deeply weird radio station that becomes an all-music, no-classical competitor for NPR. Yes. I see it now. That is your true calling.
I've had pierced ears since 5th grade. I almost never bother with earrings, but my holes don't close up. I guess I'm a slow healer...
I considered growing up to be a DJ when I was little. Maybe I could be a DJ who makes earrings on the side. Or at the same time. I'm a great-multitasker.
