Scars ( 22 March 2004 - 5:27 p.m. ) The plasters Gem put over the worst cuts were starting to get a bit dirty, so I decided to take them off. This hurt alot because the plasters were rather well adhered to the hairs on my arm, and also because some of the cuts were under the sticky bits. Having got them off I kind of wish I hadn't: I can see why Gem thought they needed covering. They really are quite bad, deep enough that the skin on either side is pulled well apart. And cos they've been under plaster they haven't dried properly: they're all gooey and very angry red. Think it all needs cleaning a bit. And it's really been hurting all day, and I have to be so careful not to knock it. And I told Ali today, during my attempt to explain why I do so little work, and have been behaving so bizzarely the last week. That may have been a mistake, alhtough he seems to understand. He is a good friend, so I think he should know. Oddly, though, I'm feeling strangely serene: it's actually made me feel better this time. Which could be dangerous... | |||||||||
