Now you're going to make fun of me.
All my life, for as long as I can remember, I've had what is known as a "skin tag" inside my belly button. I have the blasted things all over my body now, but this one was probably present at birth. Yay!
According to the Internet, the skin tags are tiny, benign tumors that occur where skin rubs against skin or clothing. Certainly true in my case...but...in the navel? What rubs against what that early in life? Wish I knew.
I don't remember that my navel became an "outie" when I was pregnant with my daughter, but now that I'm just fat, it comes close. And with that, the skin tag, which is as old as I am, is more prominent. I could strangle and remove it...but the limitations of doing it within the confines of my belly button hole are daunting.
I'm thinking of just accepting it as part of my family. Love me, love my belly button...or something like that.
Gotta keep laughing...right?
