Needles in my ear!

I saw "Dr. Su" today at the Chinese Wellness Center in Richland Hills. Dr. Connors referred me to her. I was there for about an hour. Here's what she did: I sat on the table and she asked me to stick my left arm out. Then I was supposed to push up as hard as I could against her hand. I had my other hand on different places like my back, forehead, neck, and apparently she could tell where the toxins were in my body according to how hard I pushed. I don't know, but she said I had a lot of toxins! So then I layed down, and she put about a dozen needles around my body. Some were in my feet, hands, and stomach. The ones in my tummy were the weirdest because she would press on them, and it felt like something was spreading out (I can't describe the feeling). Anyway, I layed there for about 30 minutes while these needles felt like I had a bug bite I needed to itch. I just tried to think of other things! When Dr. Su came back, she took those needles out, and then she put these little needles in my right ear, which are still there! I have to keep them in for like a week. They don't stick out or anything...they're flat against my ear. Crazy!!!

Aaron's in Las Vegas right now, and he has the camera, so I can't take pictures of what I look like :) I did give myself the shot last night for the IUI. It wasn't as bad as I thought. I'll give it to myself tonight and tomorrow, and then I'll let Aaron take back over. In other news, working at the chiropractor's office has been a lot of fun! He has several athletes (Dallas Cowboys) who come in for stuff. I've met Akin Ayodele and Bradie James. I'm sure if I work there long enough I can get tickets to some games or something. All of his patients are super friendly, and I enjoy talking to people. It gives me a break from the 5 and under group at the preschool!

How did you lay so still? I think I would have been itching and moving around? With the needle in your ear can you say you have another piercing?!
