nice venting your anger, Mom

How’s your skin?

Doing a great job protecting me from drying out, overheating and many other things.

How’s my skin? Itchy in this dry air.

Untanned, need spring!!!

The guys will have to pore over that one.

I guess my skin is a little the worse for wear after all these years…. but it’s still doing a good job.

I mean, it doesn’t look too bad… no major sags or tears….

and it still wraps around everything, and pretty much holds it together.

Without skin, we’d be really messy, and stuff would fall out…. and nobody would let us sit on the good furniture.

Say… did you ever really think about what “skinny” means?

It’s actually analogous to “bony”, “muscly”, “brainy” or “fleshy” …. so a skinny person is mostly skin, as opposed to flesh..

My skin is fine thank you. The skin on my face doesn’t look its age, but the stuff on my hands gives it all away. Never have heard if there is such a thing as a ‘hand lift’. I wouldn’t get one anyway, but inquiring minds would like to know.

Freakin’ old

Cold dinner tonight.

Pale.

And now I can add another insult to my repertoire.

Freckled.
