[216/365] zits

[cosmolinguist]

Ah I see I'm getting another new pimple on my chin/jawline. That's at least the third lately. How am I still getting so many when I'm thirty-seven?!* I was assured this would stop when I was still a teenager.

They really hurt, too. Hmph.


* This is a rhetorical question; no advice please.

Sympathy for the zits - I get them at a week off 40!

I mean I know "people usually grow out of this" is no guarantee that I personally will. Just, at times like this, I kinda wish it was. :)

I see 39 and raise you 7...

Yeah, I get them too. Usually I then shave and cut the bloody things open, which makes them worse.

Yup, mine kept right on until after they yoinked my ovaries, and I still get a few.

I'm worried my ovaries are to blame, too. Bastards.

I'm over 40 and I keep getting pimples on my BOTTOM and under my BREASTS. [and my back, but that bothers me much less]

Honestly I think I'd prefer pimples on my face to pimples on my bottom - much easier to squeeze and I don't have to sit on my face.

I can't squeeze pimples anyway (Andrew does the ones on my face if they hurt me enough for me to ask them, he loves squeezing pimples) but I am glad I don't get more than the occasional one on my bottom. And under breasts definitely seems unfair!

I currently have FIVE painful pimples on my bottom. Am not happy.

Because I'm a wheelchair user and sit so much, I always worry about them turning into pressure sores[1], too. Don't know how much that is Anxiety and how much it is realistic.
