Oh Very Young

So many things I keep discovering as my body continues to get older every day.

Like... puffiness...

I watched a certain tv show this weekend and I cried a lot.  Like a LOT lot.  And although I'd stopped crying by the time I went to bed I was still puffy eyed a bit and a little sniffly.

But when I woke up the next morning, my eyes were still super puffy!  Like, they did not go down overnight!  PUFFY EYELIDS!

So even though I'd had a couple of hours of not lying down between my sobbing and my lying down to go to bed, my eyelids retained all that.. um... I'm not sure what... and then it didn't dissipate overnight.

Bodies... so fascinating.  And so many things I had no idea to be grateful for when I was younger.

This could tie into the seasonal allergies, too!

Try not to think too much about just how weird our bodies are.

Watch a video of a motor protein at work if you ever start to think that bodies aren't weird and unfathomably complicated :)

Ok, Jason, I will blame the season! ;)

The little walking guys? They're so cute (and explode my brain when I think about it all too much) Dominic :)
