When we last we saw her, Crystal was on the cusp of change, her nose about to be forever altered. We were left with the burning questions of whether she would go through with it or whether she would back away from the challenge, or if ninjas attacked, which if you can't tell is what I really, personally was hoping would happen to make this story as exciting and epic as possible. Not that I wanted to actually fight any ninjas. I would have hid under a tattoo chair and continued taking notes and let the Lou's employees battle it out. Hey, call me a coward, but as paying customers, I don't think we should have to actually defend ourselves from ninjas! Anyway, on with the actual story:

Suddenly, like the sun breaking over the horizon at the moment of dawn (killing any careless vampires who might be about), Crystal's smile let us know that she was indeed committed to this new and exciting course of action.

First, they needed to agree on the exact spot for the piercing. It was interesting to see Crystal and Summer talking about spots so minutely different in location, but realizing that such differences could be huge when it comes to how the piercing would ultimately look. Once decided on, Summer marked the exact spot so Crystal could confirm and approve of it. When you're poking holes in a person's head, you want to avoid any chance of miscommunication. 

Preparing the spot, making sure everything is clean and sterilized. If your piercing gets you an infected nose, you're gonna have a bad time…

You didn't think I'd actually end this cliffhanger right here and now, did you?? No, you must sit, glued to your computer for another week to see how this epic saga unfolds. You may not eat, you may not sleep. You may only stare blankly at your screen for the next seven days straight, waiting for a new installment of My Girlfriend Goes to Lou's. Nervous nail biting is permitted but that's really a bad habit and you should try and quit. Stay tuned for next week's installment, when Crystal finally gets what she came for; and, while you can probably guess there's no ninjas by now, for all you know there could be a nuclear accident that transforms everyone in Lou's into crime fighting superheroes with awesome secret powers! Literally anything can happen! We'll see you then….
