I noticed a new set of little blisters, no heads, just the red bumps. I quickly put some of my borax/peppermint solution on one of those flat cotton rounds to wipe it off with. Well, the phone rang and I got distracted and the cotton pad wound up just sitting there on top of the bumps. When I took the pad off, I noticed those little white worm head things just LAYING on my arm and I grabbed the tweezers and lifted them RIGHT off without ripping open the skin. Figuring I was just getting borax crystals, I tried again, and this time, the little heads were poked up, and weaving the cotton right into my skin. If I pulled the cotton strands, I sometimes got the "head" as well. If I let it go, it turned into one of the dive bombing lint pieces. (if you've seen these you know what I mean)
So: here's some food for thought: When wiping off the sores/wounds - use Kleenex instead as it doesn't lint as bad as cotton?
and two: is there anyone out there brave enough to try this, or already knew this? I'd really really like to know I'm not losing my mind. You can reply to board or to my own e-mail address: foxtrott28@aol.com.

Just letting everyone know that this thread, started by Lisa, is not the same Lisa (me) that's been here forever. Maybe we should be Lisa 1 and Lisa 2 so there's no confusion?

One other thing....for those of you that have been around a while, does the name thing ever happen to you? When I posted back on the other board, there came a point where I had to change my name three different times because someone else would post under the same. One of them was legit. She was someone who hadn't posted for more than a year and used the same initials as me. Then the other two I came up with, I purposefully used all lower caps when posting and sure enough someone comes along and uses the same style and same name. Frustrating.

Yes it's me. Used to be LB on the old board and now I use my first name on this board. Ant, I saw this horse trough at an antiques store the other day, and I thought about you in your bath tub with your boots on.
This is something I found the other day that I saved in my jokes file. It's an old post from Oct. '03 you made. It's purdy funny.
Signs You Need A New Doctor
He calls you at two in the morning "just to talk."
Instead of rubber surgical gloves he wears oven mitts.
He keeps accidentally referring to himself as "the defendant."
He thinks Eastern Medicine was developed in Long Island.
He keeps accidentally referring to your legs as "drumsticks."
His examination room is Room 201 at the No-Tell Motel.
He introduces you to his anesthesiologist, "Doctor Jim Beam."
Before surgery, he asks if you want this "to go."
He tries to color your X-rays with crayons.
