growing up, i never had any freckles. maybe a few here and there, but never enough to be a freckled kid. these days it's a completely different story. my face is littered with them, and more are cropping up each day.
in addition to these little spatterings, i have also developed a few moles. now i am definitely positive i didn't have any of these as a kid. these buggers are all from my adult life, and now they're making me worry. see that fatty a bit below and to the left of my ear? i swear to you it is growing. it's itchy, and after a day in the sun it is now peeling (i was wearing 85 spf folks, 85!). this strikes me as not good. which is why i spent way too much time trying to make an appointment with the determatologist in order to have it looked at and possibly removed. i called five places and the closest appointment was in two weeks (the one i want to go to is in a month). and i don't know about you, but i think two weeks is too far away. surely this mole will devour my face by then. mark my word. devour.
