In a blink of an eye Miguel throws you into the air and with the help of a few faux webs your quickly taped down to the ceiling ,your hair falls straight down blurring your vision as you feel your back ache after suddenly being slammed into the roof.

-“¡Mierda Peter!”- Exclaimed Miguel as he watched Peter Parker walking in drunkenly still with his baby’s kangaroo on.

-“Where’s y/n?”- asked the joyful man with a can of Heineken in his hand.

-“she…”- Miguel lengths his sentence trying to compose a valid excuse but the worry that he didn’t stick you properly to the ceiling resulting in you falling down and possibly hurting yourself was all that could occupy his mind.-“Just left actually.”-He says with a fake smile.

Miguel was too busy trying to not break a sweat from his sudden acting role to notice that even though Peter was drunk his spider senses still worked perfectly and that he could sense your exhilarating heart beat from miles.

-“Well I just wanted to tell you that y/n told me about your injury so I could help out with the spiders , and as a friend I want you to take care of yourself, Mayday and I care deeply about you , we don’t want you to martyrize yourself for the sake of the association. For you information we perfectly run smoothly without your help for a few days. So as long as I find a babysitter for may I’ll replace you on your missions ,how does that sound ?”- Even though Peter was inebriated he pulled together the last night of eloquence he had so he could show his dear friend he cares about him.

The corner of Miguel’s lip raised for a millisecond before returning to his normal serious facade.

-“Thank you Peter but I won’t let you take over my responsibilities over a little injury. Plus with the recent raise of anomalies i don’t want to take extra risks. Do you want me to ask spider noir to take you home , you seem wasted.”- He ends the conversation with a small chuckle.

-“He’s even more wasted than I am! I’m too drunk to discuss this with you right now but just know the conversation is not over.”- Peter hasn’t gone out in a while since having mayday so he enjoys all the fun he could get.

And with some heavy unbalanced steps he quickly left the room leaving you too alone.

-“Miguel, I feel all the blood in my body in the front of my face. Please get my down.”- You groaned as you stayed still.

-“Coming.”- He said as he jumped about 13 feet in the air, With one hand he grabbed you by the waist and with the other he used his claws to rip the webs , he swiftly landed on the ground while you sorta struggled to climb off him to place yourself on the floor.

After letting you down you noticed that Miguel winced and started to rub the area that you just injected.

-“Don’t be too hard on yourself. You should take peters offer , it’ll be for his own good too. He needs those missions to get in shape so he’ll be able to keep up with mayday.”- You giggled as you started to put away the supplies.

-“Too dangerous.”

-“Oh Please Miguel, I know you think you’re the shit but i know they’ll get by perfectly without you.”- You sometime liked to provoke men by hurting their ego this way it’ll leave them flustered or confused, this lets you convince them easier it may seem Machiavellian but it’s for his own good.

Miguel’s brows tightened into a knot while he glared at you.

-“It’s not that, I’m just Really good at my job I guess.”- He murmured trying not to flatter himself too much when in reality he likes to think that the success of the spider society is due to his strict , hard handed leadership.

-“Whatever you say, i hope you’ll be able to climb walls as your ribs start pinching your lungs.”- you struggled to avoid letting out a laugh while watching the terror mirror in his face.

You quickly put away everything in their respective rooms and commanded the bots to sanitize the room before your arrival.

You grabbed your purse and walked back to the main room thinking migue would have left already but to your surprise his big figured continued to loom over the poor stool.

-“Goodnight Miguel.”- You smiled as you grabbed the door handle , before you knew it you felt a calloused warm hand grab your wrist.

-“Let me take you home.”

-“What for?”-You questioned.

-“To thank you for your services ,even though they were forced on to me.”-Miguel insisted as his hand refused to leave your small wrist

-“Be my guest.”

⋆｡°✩ ⋆｡°✩🕸

Miguel drove a Ford raptor 150, A real vintage model but you could say it went well with his personality. The car smelled of smoker rosewood and was surprisingly spotless.

As you were driven to your home you couldn’t help but notice Miguel’s fixed gaze on the road or the way his rough hands grabbed the staring wheel firmly, you tried to not let your eyes wonder but they automatically traveled up to his arms that were decorated with bulging veins and a beautiful tan, your glare finally ended up on his face, his cheekbones and jawline were as sharp as his attitude , but what really caught your attention was his eyes ; they were cold and opaque like they were dull buttons glued on to his face. You concluded that he was strangely too handsome to be Spider-Man , he should be an old spice model or something.

-“Got something on my face?”- He murmured looking at you through the corner of his vision.

-“Yeah you got a little bit of blood; you better clean that up before they think you’ve killed someone.”- You responded as fast as lightning refusing to let him catch you off guard.

-“You always got a comeback huh?”- He sighed as he looked through your side mirror so he could take a turn.

-“Actually it comes out pretty naturally. It’s a gift you could say.”- You started to enjoy the conversations you two have while alone, this moment is not the exception. He was actually a pretty nice guy when he’s not throwing tables at unsuspecting people.

-“You live in a nice area of the city, I’ve never been here;must be a pretty safe spot.”

Miguel changed the subject while looking at the surroundings of your street , you choose this area because there were a lot of parks , trees and most importantly beautiful flowers to gaze at while taking a run.

-“want to know an unconventional reason why I choose this street.”

-“Enlighten me.”-He said as he swiftly parked in front of your building while turning his body to you so he could pay attention to you fully.

-“My parents immigrated from another country and where I’m from we lived in small town surrounded by a lot of nature, so you can imagine the shock when we moved here with concrete everywhere and all the pollution. So I picked this street cause the smell and ambiance sort of reminds me of home you know?”

-“It’s funny how everyone tries to make their reality one where they were most happy, even if it doesn’t exist anymore.”- He noted with a somber look in his eyes.

As you noticed the tensed up environment you decided to call it a night.

-“Thanks for the ride Miguel.”

-“Wait let me walk you to your door.”- He said grabbing the handle of his door.

-“There’s no need.”- You said with an earnest smile. -“Don’t want the door man to get the wrong idea.”

⋆｡°✩ ⋆｡°✩🕸

Miguel locked the door to his penthouse and took his shoes of at the entrance , the Interior of his home was inspired by rustic minimalism.

The low glow of the lights made the house seem lonelier that it already was.

The bronzed man made his way to the shower turning on the cold water before taking off his clothes. He looked into the mirror to stare at the injuries staining his body, he was used to looking at open wounds and sometimes cuts that never healed properly due to his negligence, but then he stared at the little dots pertaining from your syringe, it’s the first time someone cared enough to tend to his injuries. He knows it’s your job and that he shouldn’t feel giddy over this, but after today he couldn’t help but feel a little appreciation towards you.

⋆｡°✩ ⋆｡°✩🕸

The next day In the spider society hungover Peter Parker had a very important mission, he wanted to convince Lyla to suspend Miguel’s watch for at least a day so he could heal properly; he already informed the closest spider people so they could all be on their A game on todays mission for the sake of Miguel’s health.

-“Lyla I know it’s too much to ask but please keep it a secret from him!”- Pleaded out Peter almost on his knees.

-“There’s 5 anomalies roaming around the multiverse, how do you expect me to stay quiet”.- Groaned the ai.-“It’s Miguel’s choice if he decided to go out and bust his back, plus if I do decide to follow up on your plan he’ll be forced to stay here in HQ and bitch at me.”

-“Just trust me I have a plan.”

⋆｡°✩ ⋆｡°✩🕸

After a rainy morning you arrived at HQ , after some greeting you noticed two spiders who were particularly hung over so you decided to prepare some iv bags and fluffen some pillows in case they wanted to come by and take a nap.

But as soon as you unlocked the door you noticed a sandwich from an artisan deli from the nice part of the city along with a warm latte.

You tilted your head in confusion wondering who could have left it here, on closer inspection you noticed a mint green note the top of the sandwich that read.

(Here’s last nights over time fee.

[a/n: sorry for the long wait but I enjoyed writing the

chapter and that’s all that matters to me🫶🏻 I’ll update from now on once a week :3]

[j4xotto]

Despite what people might think, Valentine’s Day was actually one of Jax’s favourite days of the year. He loved all the cheesy conventions of the holiday, the string of romcoms he could always count to be on at the movies, the candy chocolate hearts, and even the sight of red roses lining every street corner in NYC, the price dropping the closer it got to February fourteenth. The fact that he wasn’t able to love his significant other openly never dampened his enthusiasm for the holiday. Sure, it stung a little that he couldn’t join in on the Instagram posts and parade his loved one in front of the world, but it never stopped him from splashing out on an armful of roses for his loved ones, whether that be his Mum or Annie.

Guilt washed over him as he thought of Annie, who’d been keeping him at arms length ever since the revelation he’d been spending their favourite holiday with another girl. No matter where Jax was in the world, he had always made a point of coming home to Annie so that he could spoil her rotten. They’d spend the holiday curled up under blankets, watching When Harry Met Sally, or his best friend would put on her prettiest red dress and he’d take her out. Jax knew, perhaps more than most, just how lonely Annie could get, and this time of year only seemed to exasperate it. Her Dad adored her but also sheltered her, which meant dating was generally a no-go. And because Annie was one of the most beautiful people he knew, inside and out, he never for a second wanted her to be lonely.

Scrolling through his Instagram, he was relieved, and a little tickled, to see Elias’ face plastered all over Annie’s feed, as well as her story. It alleviated a little bit of pressure on his chest to know Annie wasn’t alone.

“Didn’t think he had it in him.” Jax mumbled, his thumb double-tapping over Eli’s face. Although, if he knew Annie, he could almost be certain she had been the one to make the first move. Either way, he was sure Eli was over the moon to have the girl of his dreams on his arm.

“What was that?”

Lifting his head, Jax noticed his uber driver had his eyes trained on him in the rearview mirror, having mistaken Jax’s words as meant for him. The man flushed a little in embarrassment, shaking his head as his driver moved his eyes back to the road.

“Just talking to myself, sorry.” Jax apologised in his soft, Australian lilt. Running his clammy hands over the fabric of his jeans, Jax thought about Sephy. Lovely, agreeable, funny Sephy, who’d said she\d spend the day with him despite the fact he was certain she could have any man, any man at all as her Valentine. And why was he nervous? It would be funny, if it weren’t so pitiful, that the one Valentine he got to show off happened to be a woman he wasn’t even really dating.

For about the fourth time in their short drive, Jax felt the other man’s eyes on him.

“Sorry to ask, man. You look so familiar to me, are you Jax Otto?” he asked, a smirk playing at the corner of his lips.

A high, nervous laugh fell from Jax’s lips as he shoved his hands in his pockets, fumbling around for his phone. Not for the first time, Jax wondered exactly what had given him away. Sometimes it was that people couldn’t recognise Jax outside of his race suit, outside of the car, even. Other times people heard the accent, the dark crop of hair, the too-nice clothes and made the connection, much to Jax’s dismay.

“Uh, yeah. That’s me.” Jax stated, trying to inject some enthusiasm into his voice. As Jax grew more nervous, however, the man behind the wheel grew even more animated.

“Oh, man! I can’t believe I’m driving Jax Otto, wait till my wife finds out - she loves you, Jax, just loves you.”

The city whooshed by as Jax nodded good-naturedly, tapping out a text to Sephy to let her know he wasn’t far now.

“Tell your Mrs I say hi then, won’t you?” Jax said, leaning forward to clap his driver on the shoulder. “Can you just pull over here? This is me.”

The uber screeched to a sudden stop outside of Sephy’s Brownstone. The whole thing was so new that Jax and Sephy had never stepped into one another’s apartments, the man was half afraid he’d get lost on the way there. Jax looked down his phone, as though to make sure this was the right address. He had half a mind to step out onto the street, walk up those steps and call for her himself.

“Jax, man, is that your girl?”

Lifting his head, Jax was filled with a sudden quiet reassurance at the blonde head of hair ducking out from behind the door. A small, pleased smile crossed his features as his hand found the car door handle, spilling out onto the street to greet her.

“Yeah, that’s her.”

Non-Surgical Facelift: A Solution to Reduce Wrinkles and Frown Lines

As we age, our skin naturally loses its elasticity and firmness, which leads to the formation of wrinkles and frown lines. While surgical facelifts were once the only solution for reducing these signs of aging, non-surgical facelifts have become increasingly popular in recent years. These non-invasive procedures offer a safer and more affordable alternative to traditional facelifts, and they can provide effective results for those looking to reduce wrinkles and frown lines.

A non-surgical facelift, also known as a liquid facelift, involves the use of dermal fillers, botulinum toxin injections, and other cosmetic treatments to lift and tighten the skin. Unlike surgical facelifts, these procedures do not require incisions or any significant downtime, making them a more convenient and accessible option for many people.

Botulinum toxin injections, such as Botox and Dysport, are one of the most popular options of non surgical facelift in New York City. These injections work by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkles and frown lines, allowing the skin to appear smoother and more youthful. Botulinum toxin injections are typically used to treat wrinkles on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes.

Dermal fillers, such as Juvederm, Restylane, and Sculptra, are another option for reducing wrinkles and frown lines. These fillers work by adding volume to the skin, filling in wrinkles and lines and restoring a more youthful appearance. Dermal fillers can be used to treat wrinkles on various parts of the face, including the cheeks, temples, and lips.

In addition to Botox and dermal fillers, other non-surgical facelift options include microneedling, chemical peels, and laser resurfacing. Microneedling, for example, involves the use of tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, the two proteins that help keep the skin firm and youthful. Chemical peels and laser resurfacing work by removing the top layer of damaged skin and stimulating new skin growth.

The procedures of non surgical facelift NYC are not only convenient and effective, but they are also relatively safe. However, as with any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects, so it is important to choose a qualified and experienced practitioner.

Future procedures:

Invisalign✅: got 6 weeks of trays May 7. I change them out every 10 days. I’m on week 2. It’s crazy how much my teeth have already changed. Plus the extra brushing has gotten my teeth intensely white.

Laser hair removal (legs, Brazilian, pits): still doing research on lasers but will probably make an appointment in June

Eyebrow transplant: found a place in nyc and Florida, will probably do this in the late fall early winter. I was gonna do Beverly Hills but idk if I really want to make another trip out there. LA is not my favorite place.

Bbl laser: winter but I want this done by either a dermatologist or at a plastic surgery office. No medspa

Lip injections: by a doctor probably in October

Thigh, knee, ankle lipo: I know it sounds like I’ve gotten addicted to plastic surgery but tbh my legs have always been a point of contention for me. Genetically I am predisposed to having heavy legs. My upper body is very waif like but my legs are just heavy, thick, and don’t match me anymore. It’s hard to find a specialist that does good legs. Where the scars are hidden. It’s very easy for legs to develop bumps and cellulite. I’m looking at lymphedema surgeons because they work on legs everyday. I found one in Florida but that’s a surgery I want to do in the dead of winter. I still have to make consultations before I make a real decision.

PREVIEW: sooner than later.

Part II

PS4 Peter Parker x gn! Reader

Note: second part in the works after ages and lots of rollercoasters in my life. I apologize in advance bc this will be a life-long project since I take so long to update lol but I enjoy writing this so much!!!

---------------------------------------------------

"Ugh. The worst part" a huff escaped as they shut their eyes, biting their lips to recover from the syringe and Dr. Connors finished with one more injection to investigate some blood samples from their body. "Don't worry about the purple bumps. It's just a matter of time until we see real improvements" The doctor stood up from his laboratory stool and inspected their blood samples and other fluids from the procedure before heading to the close door with his ID-card "I will be right back. I need to take a closer look at these under the microscope." His eyes darted over his shoulder to (Y/N) with a cold smile which sent slight shivers down their spine. After all these years, they still didn't get used to this side hustle and felt their body changing with every procedure in an uncomfortable way, especially after today as they got a few more purple chemical fluids injected. "Don't move and stay here until I am back" Dr. Connors insisted after swiping his keycard through a terminal to open the door and headed out.

Silence filled the room and (Y/N) closed their eyes to lean back and took a moment to breathe in. "Just...one more month and your duty is done. Then all you have to worry about is continuing with university and handling even more annoying customers at the café... not everyone can be the Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man" they sighed to themselves quietly and felt their limbs relax on the cold steel surface.

After just three minutes of peace and quietness, an uncomfortable itch started to creep over their legs, where once purple marks started to turn into a more deeper tint and spreaded itself slowly all over their hips and abdomen. "Shit, what is happening-" (Y/N) didn't have a view at the lower parts of the body and just reached down with a hand to scratch their skin on the most affected spots, when they suddenly felt their fingers crack and twist. They winced and started screaming in pain uncontrollably as a dark force took over their body and stretched out their delicate figure into something bigger and muscular, as long and pointy black claws started to grow out of their recently blueish nailpolished nails and destroyed the surface underneath with a forceful grip. A pierceful screech echoed through the laboratory and any signs of a human body disappeared within seconds of a transformation which made (Y/N) unrecognizable and their stretched jaw resembled a huge lizard, ready to shred anything that comes between its teeth. The monstrosity broke free from the small sterile gown and broke through the thick walls to cause a huge chaos in the big city with a painful screech echoing through the streets of NYC this time.

“Are you mad?” he explodes, throwing his hands up, groaning. “I was so, so close to reaching my goal, and your stupid, stalking ass had to creep up on me, hm?”

Harry is trying to keep his laughter in, walking closer to him, eyes soft. He doesn’t like the way those eyes make him feel, an odd, dangerous mix of nervous and flustered, so he bends down to pick up the books, raising an eyebrow when Harry growls in protest.

“I wanted to pick them up for you,” the alpha pouts, and Louis glares at him, getting into position and lowering the pile of yellowed pages over the top of his head.

“I’m a functional human being, thank you very much,” he grits out as he begins to walk and mentally count the amount of steps he takes. One, two, three, for heaven’s sake Harry fuck off!, four, five. He doesn’t let himself be distracted as the alpha walks along with him despite the slow pace, green eyes focused on him in a way that would, in any other cases, compelled him to throw a book in the alpha’s face.

But thousands of fans had been right about something else too. The pressure had been too much. The fame had been too much. The closet had been too much, and, four years after the pair swore to each other that nothing could break them on the night of their first kiss in 2010, they broke up.

Fast forward to 2018, on the night of One Direction's last ever concert, and Harry has yet to move on. It's not as sad as it seems-he still lives his life and, for the most part, he's happy-but he knows that Louis was his one true love and is trying to prepare himself for a life completely without the other when an accident erases Louis's mind of all of his memories. In reliving the moments with him, trying to make him remember, Harry comes to find that maybe he never really forgot them at all and maybe, like him, he hadn't moved on either.

Louis is sure he’s stumbled upon a secret, underground nightclub, though that is far from the truth. He’s also pretty sure he’s stumbled upon Apollo, which… isn’t very far from the truth, actually.

Modern Greek mythology AU.

The Field of Plastic Surgery

During World War II, plastic surgery was introduced as a unique medical specialty. The medical world was faced with the challenge of dealing with war-related injuries and defects. These were treated with innovative techniques. These include replantation of structures, correction of physical defects, and replacement of tissue. The field of plastic surgery combines careful evaluation of defects with the use of sophisticated arrangements of tissue.

In addition to correcting defects, plastic surgery also corrects deformities caused by trauma and disease. This can help improve the woman's self-image. Plastic surgery also corrects facial trauma. This can include the removal of a birthmark. In addition, plastic surgery can be used to correct breathing problems caused by abnormal nasal anatomy.

In addition to treating physical defects, plastic surgery also addresses emotional well-being. For example, many people want cosmetic surgery to change a physical defect that causes them to be self-conscious. Others want plastic surgery to change an uncomfortable body part, such as a cleft lip or a crooked chin. Make sure to look for the best botox doctors in nyc today!

Surgical procedures require the full understanding of the patient's goals and desires. Plastic surgeons are trained to tailor their care to the patient's individual needs. They also have the ability to explain the procedures in detail. They can also explain the risks and complications associated with surgery. It is important to choose a plastic surgeon who is highly skilled and experienced. A plastic surgeon's relationship with a patient is far more personal than a traditional physician's relationship.

The term plastic surgery comes from the Greek word plastikos, which means form. It was first used by German surgeon Carl Ferdinand von Graefe in 1818. It was later adopted by other surgeons in the Renaissance. In the Sanskrit text Sushruta-samhita, an ancient Indian medical practitioner describes a procedure to reconstruct a mutilated nose using tissue bridged from the cheek.

In addition to reconstructive surgery, plastic surgeons also perform aesthetic surgery. Aesthetic surgery involves enhancing normal structures by correcting age-related changes. These include procedures such as a facelift, neck liposuction, and breast augmentation. In addition, there are injectables that offer a non-invasive approach to enhancing the appearance of a patient.

Increasingly, cosmetic procedures are being performed across ethnic lines in the United States. These procedures are performed in the physician's office and can involve injections of botulinum toxin or hyaluronic acid soft tissue fillers. In addition, these procedures are performed in countries like China and India. In Asia, countries like South Korea are becoming popular for their expertise in facial bone surgeries.

Reconstructive plastic surgery corrects functional impairments caused by trauma, infections, fractures, and developmental abnormalities. This can involve the repair of physical birth defects, such as cleft lips, and burns. It can also involve the correction of developmental abnormalities in children.

In addition to repairing defects, plastic surgery also corrects physical birth defects, such as cleft lip and cleft palate. Plastic surgeons also treat cancerous tumors and benign tumors. In addition, they can remove tumors from the breast, reduce abnormally large breasts, and treat breathing problems associated with an abnormal nasal anatomy. Be sure to read more here!

Necks and the City

I originally came here to talk about my neck. Better women than me have gone over this topic ad nauseum. Nora Ephron wrote a whole book referencing it: https://www.amazon.com/Feel-Bad-About-My-Neck/dp/0307276821

More recently, this month writer Kelly Oxford wrote about it in her newly launched newsletter: https://kellyoxford.substack.com/p/the-waddle?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email

So do you really want to hear about necks from a substandard storyteller? Probably not.

So I'll keep this short for  now. My neck has bothered me for years. I have striations across it and more recently a layer of fat. So much so I my PCP had me get a thyroid sonogram a few years back to be sure it wasn't a goiter. Spoiler: It's not. I merely have an ugly neck.

This year, all of a sudden, everything just started drooping. My cheeks, the tip of my nose and most noticeably, my neck. Now not only did it have a weird roll of fat... (the only other person I've noticed with this same neck is Kimora Lee Simmons - WE ARE NECK TWINS):

...but skin has lost all elasticity. I literally feel my neck hanging and leaning against me when I lay down to watch tv. In pictures I have no jawline. It's awful. My face has always been so angular. Probably more awful for onlookers than me. At least I don't have to see my neck often if I don't want to.

I'm no stranger to cosmetic surgery. Twenty years ago I had a nose job. Smartest thing I ever did. I went from thinking about my nose hundreds of times each day to never thinking about it at all. It went from being a punishment to a mere breathing apparatus - as it should be. When the first surgery healed with a weird bump I had a quick revision. Never thought about it again. 

A year later, feeling overwhelming joy and freedom about not having to worry about my ugly nose anymore, I tackled two bigger issues: my boobs. I had a reduction and again, a great idea. Sadly they grew back in a year. Six years later, sick of buying minimizer bras and not being able to wear strapless anything, I had a re-reduction. This one stuck. Hundreds of stitches were worth it. I could wear clothes comfortably. Bikinis, no problem. Dresses no longer had to be purchased in a big size and then altered, breast down. Two piece suits, save me a size four!

Even more years later,  I had mid-section lipo. Again it sort of healed weird and I still have a sort of bumpiness to my abdomen but it is way better than a layer of fat I could never get rid of. Clothes fit properly. I am in proportion. 

I have always researched thoroughly and gone to good NYC doctors that came well recommended. No sketchy trips to South or Central America for me.

As I age I live in fear of taking a misstep. There are far too many women (and men) running around with really strange plastic surgery faces. I would never touch a filler.  You will always end up looking like a marionette. When cheek fat falls, it doesn't make sense to re-inject it high into the cheeks. Getting the whole mess lifted seems a better idea.

I hate seeing women get their lips done so they look ridiculously big and unnatural. Skin pulled so tight you become expressionless. Even Botox can be dangerous in the wrong hands (I'm looking at you Nicole Kidman.)

I knew that you can't just get your neck lifted or lipo'd without an actual face lift. And it seems the smartest way to go is to get a deep plane one, in which the skin is not just pulled tighter but the muscles underneath are also adjusted.

The doctor I wanted to go to quoted a price starting at $90K .  THAT IS INSANE. A friend of mine went to him and looks good but says she has permanent nerve damage now. (It's one of the risks.) My primary care physician suggested another guy she knows personally and who is famous for doing these. I went to him and we seem to be on the same page. He’s much more reasonably priced. The only issue I had with him is that my near-perfect nose changed this last year. The tip dropped and now sags down and I have a bump on my nose I never did. It's driving me nuts. Seeing I was getting the deep plane facelift/necklift I had hoped he could just stitch the tip up. Just the tip! Ha! But he said he thought he'd shave down the bone instead so it would meet the tip. This worries me because then as the nose sags more the bump will return. I have opted to have him just do the neck/face and deal with the nose tip later with someone else.

I am scheduled to go in Feb. 8th. He does it in the office but then I am required to spend the night in his office with a nurse. This worries me too. I will be super uncomfortable, hopped up on drugs, and probably vomiting because I always am nauseous post-anesthesia.

Anyway, all this has been causing me anxiety. I head to Mexico this weekend for a week, an adios to my old neck. Then upon return to NYC have to deal with Mike Tyson's Versace couch and then have Yale's dog for a month and no relief from Biggie. This worries me because Biggie can't be alone in the house for even a minute, so without Yale around I have no way to go out at night at all should I need to do so.  And God forbid I get sick and need to go to the hospital. Ugh.

Yesterday I sat down, hoping to relax and get my mind off of all this. I have been eagerly awaiting the Sex and the City reboot "And Just Like That..."  (I also needed to view to write a Reel Estate column about it for the site I work for, analyzing how realistic the real estate in the show is portrayed.) And just like that it made me want to jump off a building. (Think: the "Splat" episode)  I had been hoping the fashion and dialogue would be killer but turns out only the Peloton is. This reboot was more Ugg than Manolo.

It was dark, unfunny, and way too forced. It's fine that they are now in their 50s, but it paints such a dismal picture of that age. Like these women would suddenly be clueless about the world around them? Like they were just dropped into 2022 from 20 years ago with no memory of the last years and all that has transpired?

I won't spoil it with details, but I can't seem to shake this awful feeling. What I can still shake though is the wattle under my chin.

Lord help me.
