Maybe sometimes, but Marty and Holly never sucked their thumbs yet were seen
many times with their own t-shirts hanging from their mouths.
Maybe it's not "part of a set" of behaviors anyway, but just one independent
thing.
I pick. Holly picks. My boys don't so much as pop their own zits. They can
ENTIRELY leave their bodies alone to heal. I got six or seven fleabites in
SC. I'm more allergic to those than anything I know. They don't heal up
quickly, and often get infected. I mess with them, on top of all that. I
have to use bandaids and tell myself to leave the bandaid alone. Holly does
too, but not from watching me. She has a great scab fascination. Hers or
anyone else's.

yeah. But I get fleabites when I go to California too, both of the places I
ever regularly stayed there. The people who were living there either were
immune or didn't taste like candy. Fleas like me espcially. Marty had a
few, but his just went away (because he left them alone, probably).
The first time I broke a leg, long ago, I had some kind of mountain-bug bites
(a spider, maybe) on my abdomen and I kept showing them and asking for
something for the, and nobody at the hospital cared at all for a whole week.
So this time, I didn't bother to tell anyone in the hospital, "Look! A flea
bit me." I learn, but not very fast!
