Erin, sounds good.
That's exactly the kind of thing I meant when I said the other day to find a comfortable middle ground.
For a long time I wanted a tongue piercing too, but didn't dare risk it whilst I was working, now I'm retired that urge seems to have evaporated! However a couple of weeks ago, after hinting a number of times over several years, my wife finally admitted that she wanted me to have a helix piercing, which I did a few days ago.
