swingchickiethe ex and his brother have a running joke, that they should do a coffee-table book called "mysterious cuts and abrasions". it would be full-page photos of the random little nicks and scratches that you get on your body, but you don't know how they got there.
while i do think the idea is incredibly cool, this morning in the shower i noticed two of my own that have me quite unnerved. on the back of each leg, on each calf, is a 1-inch long scratch. the unnerving thing is, they are completely symmetrical... same exact spot on each calf, same height, everything. and they're scabbed over, which means they happened a couple of days ago without my even knowing (and that i should have felt them, if they were deep enough to form a scab!).
the only thing i can think of is, i was abducted by aliens who needed a skin sample. any other ideas?
