I love this stuff

Who came up with hand sanitizer? I LOVE that stuff, probably to a fault. The company I work for gives them out for free, so naturally I hoarded as many as possible. I mean, can you really use TOO much?

Well the answer is yes, because I found out myself.

One day I was fascinated by the bubbles in the bottle and began dispensing sanitizer into my hand with reckless abandon, only to watch it seemingly disappear in my hands. And plus my hands were left with a minty coolness and they smelled like alcohol, which after smelling too close promptly made me gag. I kept going, pumping, rubbing, waving, over and over, and pretty soon half the bottle was gone.

It was then I noticed that the liquid had stopped being absorbed/evaporating from my skin, and instead these little balls of whiteness had began to appear.

No worries, I thought, more sanitizer should take care of it, which of course only made it worse, eventually making it look like I was shedding the skin from my hands

In the end I had to wipe my hands off with a napkin, which added to my problem.

So I hurried to the bathroom and washed everything off.

And now I sit at my desk, staring at my bottle of hand sanitizer.

And I want to try it again.
