20g high nostril help

Hello!

Around 12 months ago I got my high nostrils pierced on both my left and right side.

Initial healing was a little rough, but nothing too bad. I've left them alone for the last year because I wanted a really solid heal before I changed them out for new jewelry.

I contacted my piercer (APP certified), and asked about the swap. I specifically asked about sizing so that I could purchase some nice jewelry for myself to have put in.

He's told me that they're pierced at 20g, and currently have 20g L shaped studs in them.

My issue now is that I'm having an extremely hard time finding gold jewelry in a 20g to put in them. I'd like to switch to threadless ends instead of the L, and I'm just...finding almost nothing in a 20g. I'd like some plain 2 or 2.5 mm hammered gold disc ends, nothing fancy. I also did some looking around and it seems like usually these are pierced at an 18g.

I'm feeling a little bummed and unsure of where to go from here. Is it possible/difficult to up size one size to the 18g? Do I need to have these re-pierced? Does anyone have any recommendations for 20g threadless ends?

The most frustrating ticket experience I've ever had

I love when tickets get snatched AS your payment is processing to go through. It makes no sense to me that they're not held even for a minute.

Pleasantly surprised

Happily surprised by this linen blend dress at Walmart. Lovely heavier material, pockets, pretty embroidery on the bust, and real fabric covered buttons! $36. Wearing an xxl but I typically wear a 3x.

Hello!

A few things first- I rent. Landlord is not timely on things like this (yes I know legally he needs to be, yes I should probably move). I live in the country and things are more "loose" here with this sort of thing.

My well pump has periodically done this usually once or twice a year starting last year. I first notice some low pressure in my water, then within a short window of time, none. In the past, I had a friend suggest cleaning the contacts here (on the right) and seeing if that fixed it. It has, multiple times, however this time it's not. I'm wondering if there's any other suggestions I can try before starting the process of trying to get my landlord over here to fix it.

House is old as hell, unfinished basement, hate it down there. 🙂 Jet pump. I do not have the manual on hand for this. I can get any other details needed, or take photos or video.
