I finally visited a local, well regarded tattoo and piercing studio and had my ears pierced. I had planned to do this about three months ago, but family drama at the time lead to me forgetting.
As an earring junkie all I can say is welcome to the club. :o)
Advice: if they've used gun studs, take 'em out and replace with gold sleepers- they're a lot easier to keep clean and make treating the piercings whilst they heal easier. They're also more comfortable to sleep on, hence the name.

Witch hazel is a wonderful cleaning agent.
