Is it bad to nip off little bitty skin tags with nail clippers?
ETA: Because I have them, and I want to.
Also, I'm gonna freak out if I end up with scores of moles growing all over my neck like my mother.
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Andi, when I went to have one taken off, my doc suggested that I could do it myself. You just need to hold an ice cube on it to numb it and use a pair of really sharp scissors--or I guess nail clippers would work.
I may do that on my next one considering my share of the doctor's visit was $200.

I dimly recall ita's Mom (who's a doc, right?) using thread on ita's Dad's.
I've used nail scissors. Alcohol before, alcohol after, alcohol on scissors, anti-b ointment on band-aid. Never had a problem. I even did one on the corner of my eyelid once because it was driving me bonkers and I couldn't wait for the optometrist my dermatologist wanted me to see.

Part of my logic, and this is a little horrifying, is that a cosmetic removal wouldn't be covered by my insurance... but if I DID go and get the thing infected that would.

I have an idea, I have the DVD's, c'mon over!
I told you I'm coming. It's just gonna take time. Phew. In the meantime, you can come over here.
Also, I though tires are for burning. My bad.
Can we make it fivesome?
Only if she'll act sexy and shit. She's blond with a "cute" look on her face, so, I have my suspicions.
Oh, but just wait one moment.
You wanna make a fivesome with a father AND his daughter?! Fantasy TV incest alert!

Go to bed. And I'm saving myself for the movie (as much as possible - I'm living among nerds).

So I had scrambled eggs with diced tomato and ham for breakfast. Then as I was reading Stargate fic, I got a hankering for donuts (Thanks to Jack's internal dialogue). We don't have donuts here. And I don't want them badly enough to actually get dressed and go to the store. But then I got to thinking, since the craving did not just go away when I tried to wait it out, I'd try some oatmeal with apples and cinnamon. Only I cut up a whole Zestar, and sprinkled in a bunch of extra cinnamon to add to the packet. And then I got really wild and added a spoonful of honey.
Yeah, baby. Good breakfast.
