Nasty Pimple
It is a new experience blogging from the office right in the middle of the night. Not only does it bring you into trouble because your boss is reading your blog, it is also a chance I had to take, since I don’t usually like to login from systems other than my own.
Hence, for the record, if anyone sees this, I am blogging from home.
I had a very strange angry welt just under my right nostril from before I left the house, which hurts terribly whenever I accidentally brush my hand against it (don’t ask me how I happen to put my hand under my nose; suffice to say that I was trying to mine for gold).
That gave me the incentive to pinch and squeeze to break the angry welt, which made the pain even worse. I think there is something growing inside that is lodged near the pain receptors to discourage me from digging it out. I didn’t care that it hurt a lot, I just wanted to get it all out, so I proceeded to do the dirty deed with just a piece of tissue paper, and freshly cut, short fingernails.
Long story short, a lot of blood came out, and now the welt has come down, though it still hurts a little. I wonder whether I had gotten it out with my adventure. What I’ll dare say is that normal people with lower pain tolerence might not be able to take it. Unless you are a facial perfectionist.
For the rest of the world, there’s always pimple cream.
