Unfortunate Birthmark

I promised the proof. To set the record straight, it is a birthmark, not a hickey!

Hickeys were hilarious when we were eight (sometimes self-induced on our arms - come on, admit it), embarrassing when we were young teens (but we still got high-fives for having made out with a hottie) and mortifying by the time we hit college. I've had this little guy since I was born. Sweet, harmless, and located in just about the worst place one could have a strawberry-coloured birthmark. For those who have asked me about it, I'm glad you did. At least I can explain it...would I 'really' wear my hair up if I was sporting a big phat hickey on my neck?
