      Ewwwww bugs in eyelashes

      So I found out about this. I'm kind of over it now, but it was pretty disturbing at first.

      Demodex folliculorum, or the demodicid, is a tiny mite, less than 0.4 mm long, that lives in your pores and hair follicles, usually on the nose, forehead, cheek, and chin, and often in the roots of your eyelashes.

      I saw this a while ago. Considering all the microbes that are all over me right now, I really don't care. It's not like they're hurting me. I'm like a city for tiny animals/bacteria, and perfectly fine with that.
      I'm back!

      I remember learning about these in science class. Our teacher showed us a video of them burrowing through skin. It was creepy. lol.

      Someone in my class once quoted :

      "Microscopes: Opening up a whole new world of scary (Censored)." Everybody started to chuckle, but i really think it was not that funny. But i think its a fair thing to say in a response to the subject at hand.
      Have a Good One!

      Hey, they keep my buttloads of dandruff from making mountains on my pillow.

      Really though, those things that could be associated with blackheads, I have a blackhead literally every pore of my nose (it's not near as bad as it looks.. barely noticeable! )

      Creeped me out when I first found this out, but now I think I've found a way to peacefully coexist :/

      I find it gross how there's tiny bugs crawling all over me, especially since they look like... gross.
      Don't care that much though, as long as they don't bother me.
      We all live in a kind of continuous dream. When we wake, it is because something,
      some event, some pinprick even, disturbs the edges of what we have taken as reality.

      It just makes me want to shower a lot... as if I didn't already. I shower 3-4 times a day. I am not a dirty or smelly person just a complete clean freak. Oh, well that made my average shower time go up an hour or two.

      Huh? when I shower I clean everything including my eyelashes to wash any liner out or mascara...etc....

      I'm sure these nasty critters are still there after wards but the thought of showering helps lol.

      Huh, the only eyewash I ever saw was one of those freaky tube ones you stick up to your eye.
      That looks far more pleasant.

      I think you mean dust mites.

      This doesn't surprise me considering how weird microscopic things are.

      I wonder if there are microscopic animals on the microscopic animals, and microscopic animals on the animals with microscopic animals....

      Could be very possible. If you realize how infinitely large the universe is, as well as infinitely small. Can we even see atoms with SEMs? No.
