Ponderings....

I feel fortunate, on a daily basis, to be part of a relationship unit. I mean the boy is great. But today, more than usual, I feel extremely fortunate for my unit. Today, I have one of the largest most painful zits on my chin I have ever had in my life. I feel like it may be my skin getting me back for all of those adolescent years I went acne free. This one is a honker. When this zit arrived yesterday I took evasive action. I walked around the house last night with a rather sizeable glob of toothpaste on it (a friend told me once that it helps dry them out). This morning I woke up and it was a bit smaller but much redder and had some little companions (most likely a result of the toothpaste clogging surrounding pores). This got me thinking that in my current state, it would be awful to be single. I walk around with what for all intense and purposes is a denture in my mouth (which half the time I don't wear all day and never on the weekends unless I happen to go out). Can you imagine if I was single and ended up wanting to make out with someone and having to say "Hang on a second! I have to pop my fake tooth out!" My gray hair has become increasingly more prominent and I have slacked off on the root touch ups. I am just gross right now. The only thing I have going appearance wise these days is that I am physically in the best shape of my life. I am grateful for that too because all of the working out makes me so tired that I never have the energy to go out at night saving the general population from the Mount Fuji on my chin, the grey ghost on my head, and the grand canyon in my mouth. Thank you, boy, for lying to me and telling me that you think I am pretty.
