I …

I had no knowledge that something as harmless as toothpaste could cause me skin problems. Take for instance my whitening toothpaste (also desensitizing in formula). It was highly likely that that toothpaste’s watery foam would drip out of my mouth while brushing and land over my chin …

My brain really needs a boost. I’ve been mentally burned out from writing since…a long time. My mind usually zones out. If I were to self-diagnose this condition, I’m probably suffering from writer’s block, or whatever. As a writer, a word processor, and at the …
