ulcers

aye. this title sounds familiar. didn't i write about ulcers before? ok so now you know i have some ulcers which are growing and about to merge to form a large island of festering mucosa in my mouth. this time not just limited to my lower lip, but even inside my upperlip so that it hurts when i lick my upper row of teeth (which i happen to do only when i get ulcers on my upperlip. i think i have a weird crazy masochistic complex going on in my head).

so when i have the three or four festering sores in different corners of my mouth (like the four corners of the globe although the globe doesn't have corners. who was the smart ass who coined that phrase btw. wait, it does exist doesn't it? because now that i've penned it, it sounds really funny like you know when you write things like splotch). so back to my ulcers, you would think that would stop me from eating because they hurt kind of. but no, in that sick masochistic kind of way, i eat even more almost as if to say- "hah ulcer, take that!"

and why the hell do americans call them cankersores? beats the hell out of me. ouch.
