When I was 13 or something, I shaved off the whole front of my shin while shaving my legs
I did the same, but I was probably 11 and it was the first time I tried shaving. Yeowch.
I have red shoes! 2 pair. Of course, one is cutesy canvas flats and the other are what I call my kindergarten shoes: red round mary janes with lavendar trim. Those are fluevogs.
I did that to my shin when I was 15, 17, and 24.
I found an email from Hapsack in my Yahoo account yesterday and deleted it unread. I do that with a LOT of mail.
Sometimes I read them and go to the domain itself, because I'm curious about the front that people put up. Hapsack seems to be a fairly detailed front, but I'm still feeling front. Not least of all because I had to type all that text in--the page itself is an image. Why the hell bother? Why do I care?
When I was old enough to start using feminine hygiene products, my mother informed me that as a toddler my preferred use for maxi pads had been to stick them on my chin and run around screaming "MOMMY I HAVE A BEARD!"
I used them as doll beds. You definitely win, Jess. What, I do not know.
FWIW, sanitary napkins were invented by WWI nurses who adapted it from the bandages they used -- and tampons were reinvented with the same material. So using them as bandages means they've come full circle.
Announcement: I just got assigned a non-rush research project that involves a scientific term I've never heard of and it's making me gleeful.
Analysis: I am a ginourmous geek, AIFG.
Speaking of tampons, when we babysat a ferret for the summer, he'd steal wrapped tampax out of our bags, peel off the wrapper, hit it in the bedside drawer, and tuck the tampax in the boxspring with all his other treasure (including wrapped cough drops and orange peels.) We didn't discover this until we upended the mattress when we moved out. He was a trip. He also liked to bathe in the toilet. Except he couldn't get out. He got peed on once. We had to put toilet locks on it.
OBs are popular cat toys around here.

That's so cool.
