Does this make me a pirate?

Things certainly are strange. But would I really have it any other way? Not to mention I already am a pirate.

But you know, suddenly only being able to wear one earring does add a certain pizzazz to the whole deal of being a pirate. Not that I did this on purpose. On the contrary, I used to be able to wear two earrings, but two days after I had worn my last pair, I went to put a different pair in, and alas: my right ear was no longer pierced.
So granted this is an extremely weird topic to talk about, but honestly right now I'm strapped for ideas.
However! This does open up a lot of weird costuming opportunities!
  • I could be a Bejoran from Star Trek!
  • I could be a Pirate.
  • I could still literally be anything, I'd just be wearing one earring.
But mainly you know, I can have just one hoop earring in now and have some fun! :)
Not to mention, I've been wanting to do something kind of spunky with my appearance, but couldn't work up the courage yet to dye my hair at all. So now I'll be just having one dressed up ear, (I'm an owner of ear cuffs, so that plus a hoop or statement earring is certainly a different kind of look) and a side braid, on the right side so its not quite so readily noticeable I'm only wearing one.
From what I've heard, a lot of people freak out when an piercing closes up, I cannot believe how I simple went. (later, because at first I was getting ready to go to a dinner and was going to be dressed up, only to realize I couldn't wear my earring and necklace set.) But later on, I had a whole lot of fun thinking about what all I could do. Plus! (Oh gosh you're thinking, stop adding more onto this post already!!) ((if that's the case then you can be on your merry way or just keep reading, your choice.)) I can see if any of my friends/family have any single earrings that have long since lost their respective matching earring. And I can wear clip earrings on that ear once it's fully healed. Being closed doesn't mean healed, it is still tender. So before any comments of "Just repierce it" or "Just push the earring through" come up, let me say that you have to wait at least two weeks to safely repierce your ear, and that just shoving your earring through your ear can do a whole lot of harm, especially if it tears, which could open up your ear to infection, and keeping you from ever being able to pierce it again.
So I'm waiting on that right now.
If this post seems to be agressive, I just listened to a very sad song. So really, I have no idea why I'm even posting about being able to wear only one earring now.
 Oh well, you're the one reading the blog, so if there's any rhyme or reason to any of this you probably know more than I.

A daily life

Or a day in life, both are correct when you think about it.  So a number of things are already happening today, and other things being planned on getting done today. But for now, as far as things have happened already today: Tai Chi, calculated my bedroom to see if I could survive living in a Japanese sized apartment (Which I could), got excited about re-hydrating myself (constant state of dehydration, you're going down.) to the point where I've given myself a painful case of the hiccups, and looked at some old family photos.  As far as what else is planned for today: Painting, eating lunch, some school I guess if I can actually grasp any of it, and getting rid of these hiccups!!  So apparently the average size of a Japanese apartment is around 1,300 sq. ft. My bedroom is (rounded up) 259 sq. ft. Yes, I have a very large room, but to be fair I've got it essentially set up as an ultra mini apartment, and could probably very happily live in something just as big. Just p

By the grace of God

 It is only by the grace of God that I am still standing here on this earth. It is only by the grace of God that I draw breath, and am whole. Everything I am, is by the Grace of God.  Two years ago, a part of my life started that would not end for a long time, and is in some ways still ongoing.  Two years ago, in 2014, unknowingly began what I would now call the year of hell.  I was a bystander to verbal abuse and hate. I lived in close quarters with people that I became to be afraid of, and did not speak up. I hid, and I tried to hide in ways that never really worked, but have now become habits that are hard to break.  I kept silent during the calms, for fear that a wrong word would stir up a storm from a simple disagreement.  I often took to walking to a friends house just down the road, to see if they were outside and could hang out for a while. And to my knowledge they still don't know what transpired.  It is only by the grace of God that I found the courage in myself to

Villains

What do you think makes a villain a villain? A question proposed by a friend over on NaNoWriMo, Leila offered a question that made me realize, that I might have a very complicated, yet possibly not all that hard to grasp, idea on what a villain actually is, and is not.  A villain needs to be lots of things all wrapped up into one, and often times not everything all at once. A villain is usually someone who has at least one keystone to their personality that either rivals, or is the protagonists fear and/or vice. For instance, two of my own characters from a novel I did in 2014.   V will be villain, P will be protagonist. V1: I am suave, I offer compliments and disguise my observations as questions to gain more information. As well as being versed in the language of the country I am in, my main goal is to operate in the shadows and go as unnoticed as possible, unless I see my spotlight waning. P1: I can do away with superfluous comments or manners, I will ask direct que
