Where She Speaks in CAPS a bit too much.

So, I know that this is one of those things that is only noticeable to yourself - after all, who else stares at your face in a mirror under florescent lighting?

But I now have freckles that straddle the line between freckle and sunspot on my cheeks and the sides of my eyes. The few that were there were very, very, light before I went abroad - practically unnoticeable. Now they are, and there is significantly more of them.

Now, I am kicking myself for not wearing sunscreen while living in Southeast Asia WITH A GENETIC PREDISPOSITION TO SKIN CANCER.
I am obviously, brilliant.

I'm going to look OLD AND SPECKLED. OLD. SPECKLED. OLD. WITH CANCER.*

* I maintain that cancer is our body telling us that our ancestors lived to their forties, why do we have to extend it so far? Biologically, we should have had a bazillion children, saggy breasts, and a loose vag already. So, it is inevitable. Everyone will get cancer. Because everything gives you cancer. BREATHING. FUCKING. and GOING OUTSIDE all = cancer.
