Slight Ouch

Having achieved the ripe old age of 57, this year I made what I think can be classed as an "older person" purchase: a nose hair trimmer. Yes, I felt the time had come, sigh. (Since I'm still dealing with the bleeding issue that hopefully the recent surgery will address, I was a bit bitter about buying panty liners and a nose hair trimmer in the same month.)

I then went through what I expect are probably the classic steps of New Nose Hair Trimmer Ownership:

  1. A cautious, gentle trim that didn't have much of an effect.
  2. An all-out, in-every-turn trim that left the inside of my nose feeling tender. No actual bleeding, but definitely ouchie for a few days.

Everyone probably does that, right? If you haven't, well, consider yourself warned.
