I've known all my life that I have my share of physical flaws. We all do, and - being a girl - I can see each and every one of mine, real or imagined, major or minor, life-long or brand-new. I won't bore (or disgust) you by itemizing them all here, but I will admit that several years ago I came to the realization that my nostrils are uneven. Well, the little dividing bit in the middle is crooked. Same thing. I try not to let it bother me.
Now, I've concluded that either my right eye or right ear must be misaligned, somewhat lower than its left-side counterpart. I base this on the fact that I've never had a single pair of glasses, either corrective or sun-type, that sat straight on my face. It can't always be the glasses, right? So it must be my head. I've already decided that creative eyebrow tweezing is most likely not a suitable method to try to camouflage this deformity.
So, I'll work on trying not to let this bother me, either. I'll just worry about the recent manifestation of the Basset Hound eye bags I inherited from my father. (Thanks, Dad. Oh, well, at least I didn't inherit his hair. He was bald.)

You're cracking me up!
Oh, Mackenzie, YOU crack ME up. Your daily insights into the workings of the Golden Mind are priceless!
Just be glad it's basset eyes, Miss Lori. If you were developing bear eyes, it could attract Betsy Bear.
What about my bear feet? I mean bare feet. Or my fondness for hibernation?
Oh, hibernation is really bad for attracting Betsy. She can sense hibernation miles away, and will see it as the perfect chance to attack and snitch food!
So, Betsy doesn't hibernate? She must be a very highly evolved, special bear!
No, Betsy doesn't hibernate, although all of the other bears sure wish she would take hibernation up. She claims there's too much honey she could potentially miss getting her paws on from other bears if she hibernates.
