bleeding lips

i have several addictions. chocolate, caffeine, and chapstick. if you know me you know all of this. chapstick is my biggest addiction. a must have 24/7. preferrably Chapstick brand (regular or strawberry.) today was a regular Chapstick day; however i decided not to wear the super cool scrubs to work and instead went with some khacki pants. bad pockets. chapstick fell out several times, but was always found. why didn't i learn and put it somewhere else? yeah, big problem! ....

today was my 10 minute French presentation on the history of Québec. i was very nervous about it. got to class and realized i had one incorrect word on my handout. upsetting but not that big of a deal. the problem: Chapstick was gone. no where to be found. i seriously thought i was going to cry. no time to run to the bookstore to buy some. out of luck. what to do? i need it every few minutes in general, but like every two seconds when i'm nervous. i was freaking out. truly. no lie.

slowly but surely my bleeding lips are recovering.
