So I stretched my ears a wee bit bigger today by way of electrical tape. They're now somewhere between an 8 and a 6. My plan is to get them at least to a 0 and possibly 00, although the second hole in my right ear wasn't done very well and is kind of close to my first hole, so there might not be enough room to go very big. We'll see.

P.S. For those of you who have no idea how big gauge sizes are, in diameters,

8 = 3 and a bit mm

6 = 4 mm

0 = 8 and a bit mm

00 = 9 and a bit mm
