welcome! I like body modification. in order of their appearance, I have 2 gauge lobes (x2), 14 gauge lobes (x2), 14 gauge cartilage, 16 gauge cartilage, 8 gauge tongue, 14 gauge septum, a small tattoo on my spine of a Maple Leaf, a faded brand on my inner right calf that I did at home, a 16 gauge rook, 10 gauge nipples, an 8 gauge vertical hood, a tattoo of a grasshopper on my upper right arm, a tattoo of a crocodile on my left side and a geometric tattoo above and below my navel. I also had an 8ga navel piercing, but I took it out in March 2001 because it was migrating. I'm not really what some bod mod enthusiasts might consider "hard core", but I guess I have a good bit of coverage. future plans may include more ink, a second septum piercing, a triangle, hood splitting, and labia piercings.

my body modification diary:

• part one, dated May 1998 to May 1999.
• part two, dated June 1999 to June 2000.

looking for a specific story or experience? I wrote a few. perhaps what you're looking for is below. some have two versions -- the bme version will take you to a different site, but it is the same basic story with some edits. usually the bme version is recommended.

• why I got pierced
• getting my tattoo (bme version)
• getting my nipples pierced (bme version)
• doing my own brand (bme version)
• my rook
• my new navel tattoo

you also might be interested in my page on bme. it shares some content with this site, but has much more in other respects. it also contains a diary. if you are not a member, you will only be able to read the first page, and you won't be able to see most of the photos. if you are a friend, let me know of your interest in the photos -- I can email them to you.

don't forget to check out the photos of my mods.
