Skin

Green turbid fluid. That's how the medical report described what the doctor extracted from my cyst. I'm not sure I like the idea of having green fluid in me (is this a throwback to some alien heritage perhaps?) But it does make one wonder about what else might be lurking below the surface. As mate Trish mentioned, it's a good thing we have skin - to keep these things hidden from view! I'm not sure how far I would get in a world where people had transparent skin - which is probably another good reason we aren't imbued with x-ray vision. Yep, the world would be a different place if we had see-through skin.
