A Gift To Myself
Have I mentioned that I LOVE having insurance? I haven't had insurance EVER in my life until this job. So yeah...I've been to more doctors in the last few months than I have most of my life.
So, on Wednesday, I got myself a gift using that lovely insurance. A big fat hole in my face!
For years, I've hated the moles on my face. Namely, this one:
So I got it chopped off. For the bargain price of $30 (thank you, kind doctor, for calling it abnormal so insurance will pay).
Instead of one mole, I have one black stitch, which is already healing nicely. And, as amazing as it sounds, it never hurt. The night I did it, it felt like a little paper cut or something, but nothing close to what I'd imagined.
Next Wednesday I get my stitch removed. Then on March 6th? I get another hole in my face. Right here:
I'm beyond thrilled!!
The doc said it will heal perfectly by the time the wedding rolls around, so you won't be able to tell there was anything even there.
So, Happy Valentine's Day, self. You look mahvelous!!
P.S. 3 months, 2 weeks and 3 days until I'm a wife. Woot-Woot!

You're still a total hottie, even with holes in your face.

If only it were that easy to get rid of annoying spots of fat.
If that were the case, I'd be ALL OVER the doctor's office!! :)
Congrats on the mole removal! (Hmm...that sounds like I'm talking about lawn creatures.)

It didn't hurt at all? How did they do it, give you a numbing shot? Didn't that part hurt?

You look like a million damn dollars no matter what!
I just want to know what that picture is all about. He's leering into your ear and you're looking slightly uncomfortable by it. Strange.

Now THAT is a heartwarming health insurance story that should be sent to your congress person. Could you imagine a world where everyone had health insurance and could afford to remove their moles? The good vibes would be never ending.
BTW, I've had several moles removed. Be careful. Having moles removed is like getting tattoos: you can't stop at just one. ;-)
(Cute photo!)
Cool! I'm glad to know it didn't hurt. I have a few here and there that need to get axed but I've always been slightly afraid.
And hey! Long time no see, huh? Hope all is well. I knew you were getting married but it's really close now! WOWZA!
And can I just tell you that I have never known anyone that was as excited as you to be getting married? It's so adorable :)

You are so hawt! Think Cindy Crawford. That biotch actually has to put FAKE moles on her face to look hot like you, lol.
Hey where have you been?!! It's not like you have a wedding to plan or something so you should be here talking to us!
Yes, insurance is very cool! I actually got to go to the doctor when I had the flu!

You're gonna LOVE those being gone. I had the exact same one on my nose. I don't even have a hole left. It totally changes your look. I can't wait to see the "after" shots!

My doctor said I need to get rid of my beauty mark but I love it. By the way, when you like it you call it a "beauty mark". When you don't you call it a mole. I just figured this out.

So I left a comment here about a day ago and you never published it. Does this mean I owe you a million dollars?
