For the last few days, something unusual has been happening, my lips have started to become chapped. Now, this probably only ever happened once before, and so this comes as quite a surprise. Now, my first reaction to any problem is to ignore it, and see if it goes away without needing to force the issue, and I do. However, my lips are determined to become drier and drier, and it becomes unbearable eventually, when I wake up on the third day since the beginning of this problem and my lips have become so dry that they've changed color, painfully crack when I move them, and little chunks are falling off. WHY they're doing this now and never before is beyond me.
Now, I'm forced to go buy something that I abolutely resent having to buy, chap stick. Now, looking through the selection, there are disgusting looking varieties of it, like "Cherry" or "Strawberry", and I have to shuffle though it to look for something to retain atleast alittle dignity. I do settle on one though, "Medicated: for severely chapped lips", and I think 'hey, sounds perfect'. Putting it on though, in the bathroom where noone can see me of course, the lip stick-esque nature of it still causes it to make me feel like a drag queen geriatric patient, even while it soothes my tender lips. I feel the urge to put this on every single time it rubs off or something, just so I can fix my lips and finally throw it in a department of my luggage and forget about it forever.
