Yeah, I thought white men’s penises went from beige to red/purple? Is there pink in between?

- The inside of my youngest son’s girlfriend’s dog’s mouth.

Seriously. Dragon, the dog, has a big mouth and grins a lot, and the inside of his mouth is this bright, Pepto-Bismol pink. It’s eye-catching.

- The zits erupting wherever my new CPAP mask touches. I’m going to be wearing bandaids at night to keep them away. I guess it’s an easy enough fix. I’m just shaking my head over it. Zits. A rash I could understand, but zits?
