lotion helps (lubriderm)

dear standing under a truck that fell from the sky diary,

nothing hurts worse than shit falling on your head. so you gotta be ready when it happens. my hair hurts when it grows. sometimes i have to massage it as its coming out of my scalp. it really does ache. i attribute that to my readiness for things to fall on my head at anytime. i have a thick head. i have thick nails and thick toenails as well. i have thick skin too. i like my thick skin. it helps in other ways besides combating nature and physical elements. it also helps mentally. one wouldn't think that thick skin would come into play during, say, a conversation, or a slur of words across a parking lot, but thick skin can protect you from even that pesky swarm of insects. sometimes my foot falls asleep and nothing will wake it up except kicking it and just lashing it out on whatever is in front of me. you just never know when a truck will fall from the sky. it hurts to end up kicking a truck. i have thick skin on my feet tho. and i wear boots all year long.
