I barely got away with piercing my ears.

Me and Martha Washington went together. George was ****ed.
When I was about 10 or 11, I begged my mom to let me wear blue jeans. Her answer was "When I was your age, only poor people wore blue jeans." I then asked her if she voted for Abe Lincoln for president. Then I was grounded for one week.

When I was 13, I begged my mom to let me get my ears pierced. Her answer was "If God had wanted you to have holes in you ear lobes, he would have put them there." It took me about 6 months, but I finally wore her down, and I was able to get my ears pierced. . Of course my younger sisters did not have to go through this drama.

When I was 25, my roommate and I committed the ultimate act of rebellion -- we both got our ears pierced for a second time. We certainly lived on the edge, LOL.
