During a recent conversation with Sarah it came up that once while working in a salon she had learned how to perform ear candling. I'd never had it done and really only vaguely understood what it involves.

This led to Sarah candling my ears. Why not?

I can't say that I felt any different afterward, less waxy or more balanced (and looking it up on Wikipedia I just read, "according to medical researchers, it is both dangerous and ineffective"), but it was a funny little experience and I think that's all that really matters.
