My turn to add questions

Buddy, do you have pierced ears? Do you wear/like jewelry? If so, do you like big and chunky or small and delicate?

Yes, ears are pierced 3 holes in each. I currently only wear one stud in each but would wear more if I had some nice ones. Prefer studs or something stud-like. Nothing dangly that DS can yank on

My turn for a question, as previously stated, bath and Body Works big sale starts on Wedn. What would your BBW WL look like if I was to go get you something at the sale?

Just took a quick peek at their website...
