I can't remember whether I've posted on this thread. 
 
I have a few visible piercings and tattoos. 
 
Somehow, my overall image still screams middle aged high school math teacher, but 
 
I have 31 stars crawling up the side of my left leg, and  
 
There is an abstract design on the inside of my right ankle. 
 
There is a tiny diamond stud in my nose and 
 
I have a few non traditional pieces of jewelry in both ears. 
 
Some people think it helps my somewhat reluctant math students to relate to me, but 
 
I don't know what parents think when we meet me, though 
 
I think some of them are relieved that 
 
I do not appear as stuffy as their own high school math teachers.
