Someone at the pharmacy stared at my cheek too long today, and I ended up studying shampoo bottles untill they walked off. Face still went hot even though it’s less flaky than before. Still waiting on that job I applied to, and unknown numbers now make my skin feel hotter before I even answer. Sat in the car a minute first, not ready to be looked at.
Hid behind shampoo bottles today

I still freeze before picking up unknown numbers too, stomach drops first. Let 3 calls go to voicemail last week before I made myself answer~

That shampoo aisle trick is one I know well. Pharmacy counters are rough because there is nowhere else to look but the shelf in front of you. Something close to that happened at the bookstore counter a while back, a customer kept glancing at my neck while I rang up their stack of books, and my face went hot even though there was barely anything there to see.

the car thing got me, I do that before job interviews too. 2 months into waiting on this one application and the silence is its own kind of hot face

The shampoo bottles probably know my skin routine better than my own derm does by now. I’ve got unknown numbers down to a science too, 9 times out of 10 it’s just a robocall about a car warranty I don’t even own.
