Well, that was counterproductive. This morning, I put a band-aid (with some neosporin) on my arm where I had, as I will oh-so-maturely refer to it, an owie. An hour or so ago, I took the band-aid off because I was getting into the shower, and it took a layer of skin with it!

I guess those "flexible fabric" band-aids aren't playing around about how sticky they are. I had even exercised (and sweated) under that band-aid!

Ow.

i am a flexible fabric bandaid connoisseur. here is my advice.

first, the walgreens house brand flexible fabric ones are my favorite. i have developed this preference over decades of chewing on myself and then needing bandaids to staunch the bleeding.

second, they usually come off relatively well once you're *in* the shower. give it a few minutes (wash your hair first or something) and then it should come off more easily.

i knew this specialized knowledge would come in handy. ;)

Noted, oh knowledge specialist!
