The River Varicose

I was checking out my legs in the mirror this morning, hoping that the spin, Pilates, and BODYPUMP workouts I've been doing lately (okay, sporadically) were working. Instead of seeing muscle tone (though there was some), I saw something blue. I followed it as it snaked and looped and swerved all around my left leg and my right leg.

Varicose veins!!! I was horrified.

#1, because they are ugly. U-G-L-Y!
#2, because veins gross me the F out. 

I know, I know. I shouldn't be surprised. I am pushing 40, you know. Still, I think it is bad enough that I have cherry angiomas all over my belly.

There is going to be some serious lasering taking place sometime in the future. And Botoxing and Restalyne-ing.
