green mouth 🤑
So, the other day I was deep in thought creating more killer lessons for the Un F*YOUrself digital course. It's going amazing by the way. We're creating a rad community of peeps kicking negative self-talk to the curb and getting creative.
When, all of a sudden I got a weird sour, chemical taste in the back of my throat.
Instantly, I knew what it was.
I jumped to my feet, ran to the bathroom, and didn't swallow again.
When I got to the sink, I opened my mouth and saw a vision I hadn't seen before. Full-on green mouth. It was a deep green like I had chugged an entire container of green food coloring. When in fact, I had been mindlessly sucking on a refillable Muji ink pen while hyper-focused on content creation. I had green:
saliva
teeth
cheeks
tongue
I totally freaked the F*out. ( I have to admit I thought about taking a picture to capture the moment. Because if you don't post about it on Instagram did it even happen?) I started spitting and brushing my teeth and spitting and swishing and spitting and gagging to get it all out of my mouth. It took a minute or two or five or twenty. I kept thinking, am I going to die because I swallowed ink? Do I need to call poison control?
I ran back to my laptop and started googling to make sure I didn't need to make myself throw up, or ingest a ton of milk. Turns out nope, I was good. If you swallow ink it's nbd ( no big deal.) You may get a tummy ache but it's not gonna kill ya.
In the middle of my green mouth drama, I got a text from my graphic designer, "Can you send me a pic of your lips." I'm working with a graphic designer to design logos for debbiemink.com ( I'm including this side note in case you're waiting until everything is perfect and done to launch something. I believe in doing things messy and didn't let the fact that my logo is still in process stop me from launching my website and my course. I launched knowing I can go back and update. Also, that launching without a logo, at this stage of the game, isn't a deal-breaker for my personal brand.)
My designer is creating a lip icon as part of my logo suite because I got a lot to say and I love a good lip. After I got all the green out of my mouth I slapped on a pink lip and sent her these pics.
Heads up new logos coming soon!
I am never gonna mindlessly suck on a pen again. Curious, do you even use a pen anymore or suck on one? Email me debbie@debbiemink.com and let me know.
All my Leopard print and Lipstick 💋,
