I also bite the inside of my lip. Ugh...my dentist said I had better stop bc it can cause cancer.

I am also a TERRIBLE procrastinator. It is bad and it is something that I really need to work on before I start school again.
It really can cause cancer?!?! My mom tells me that, and I thought she was busting my chops!

I remember you telling me you were addicted to chapstix! I can't use that. It's too waxy! I have to have Blistex (medicated, tube kind) or else I have to go and buy it! I can last a little while with lip gloss or something if I'm desperate, but I prefer my trusty Blistex. How long have you been addicted to it? I've been using Blistex since about junior or senior year of high school!!! I'm almost 30 now!!

Well, not the brand Chapstick...I'm addicted to Burt's Beeswax. I've been addicted since sometime in high school when I had to use Accutane for my acne...one of the side effects is that it REALLY dries you lips out, so I started using Burt's Beeswax and have been using it ever since!

And yes, biting the inside of your lip can cause cancer. Repeated trauma to any part of your body will cause cancer. That is how you get skin cancer & lung cancer...repeated trauma from the sun or from smoking.

I honestly just have to make a conscious effort not to do it! Whenever I find myself doing it, I chew gum or something. It's hard, though. But it is just a nervous habit and I need to find something to replace it. You can do it, too!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow...guilty of biting the inside of my lip as well. Oh, and I recently started biting my nails again....probably stress from school. AND I'm also a TERRIBLE procrastinator... which I'm really regretting now that I have 2 projects due next week I'm sure I have other bad habits, but I'll add them later when i remember them

Let's see..bad habits.. This will make me take a hard look at myself...Thanks!! LOLOL

1. My smoking (mostly on the computer or when the guys go for a weekend of camping with Scouts),

2. Picking at my husband. It's become a habit. He knows what I expect, just do it...LOL

3. Too many addicting TV shows

4. Chocolate

5. Putting things off during the day and scrambling to get it done after the afternoon bus route.

6. This is gross, but I have a hard time leaving scabs alone. My Mom always did this too. I need to keep band aids or something on them. It's like it's an imperfection and I have to get it off only it makes it worse and lasts longer.

I think that's it for now, although I know there has to be more..LOL
