Defacing the Temple of the Holy Spirit

As I’ve already mentioned a number of times, I survived eight years of Catholic school.

I learned a lot about how to be a prude, why I was probably going to hell someday, and most importantly, how I should treat the Temple of the Holy Spirit with love and respect. Oh, but orgasms outside of the marital act of intercourse, and only without the use of sinful birth control methods, was considered an abomination of the body’s godly purpose, of course. You know, to set the story straight.

However, since pierced ears don’t appear to be a crime against the Temple, I’m going to have to assume that other piercings aren’t necessarily considered defacing it, either.

My sister, who paid for my latest piercing as an early birthday present, agrees.

And as a side note, I am currently homeless and living at my parents’ place, so cell phone photos and blog updates are just gonna have to do it for you until all my fancy picture-downloading stuff and computer gear is in Seattle and out of storage. Speaking of which, it’s en route the three-day drive as I write. *sigh*

    At first I didn’t notice, but is that a stud in your nose?!

    If so, I’m super jealous. I’ve always wanted to do that, but I’m super afraid I would have to take it out for a job. Guess I should have done it before Arch was born so I could enjoy it for a while!

    Cute! I had mine done in high school and loved it. I kept ripping it out though and eventually gave up on it. I’m happy to hear you’ll still be blogging. WTH would I do without your blog!?

    CUTE!! And I can totally sympathize with you on the teachings of the catholic church … one of the many reasons I’m no longer religious.
