Chap Stick

Back in high school I went on the drug Acutane for my acne and since then chap stick has been basically my best friend, we have been as inseparable as Timon and Pumba. Name a stick, and I have most likely tried it. I have been through just about every brand and flavor.

If you are an avid chap stick user, you may use one stick and then lose it and then get around to buying on at your earliest convenience. When you find a flavor that sounds good at the moment you may buy it on a whim.

I, on the other hand, am an intense user.

I don't lose chap stick; I run out. My lips get extremely chapped all throughout the day and night. I know the good kinds of chap stick, what works, what tastes good, and what gets the job done. I enjoy a nice Vanilla Mint Chapstic(holla Lisa), but have been unlucky in finding them here in Arizona. At home, I know I can find them at the Walgreen's off Santa Margarita Pkwy(like I said, I'm intense).

Today, I realized I am running low on my newest stick of Burt's Bees. Normally, it wouldn't be a very big deal, I would just go out and buy a new stick and move on. When I thought of getting a new one, something hit me. I bought this stick over spring break, which was barely two weeks ago. That is not good.

Tonight, I have made the decision to try and "detox" off chap stick. Yes, I am well aware of how freaking ridiculous this sounds. I have decided to follow in the footsteps of all those coke whores, alcoholics, and inspiring celebrities; and change my life. So keep me in your thoughts as I try and cut chap stick out of my life.
