uh... naked mole rats.

I have two beautiful (or so I've always believed) little moles on my left arm. Upper arm. Outer upper arm (and one in my arm pit.. I'll have to check the mirror to figure out which one it is, I can't remember right now). These little cuties have been with me for as long as I can remember. A number of years ago they each sprouted three hairs.
Three lovely dark hairs.
Which, when they have reached the appropriate length, I grasp and pull out.

Yesterday, while driving... I rubbed my arm and felt the familiar hairs greet my finger tips. I glanced down... and was shocked!

I'm so old that one of my mole hairs is WHITE!!!!



ps. Pontouf's feet are too big for her to run and jump and frolic! she starts... then trips!
