Quick hickey cures/fixes?

When my son was a baby he had a bathtub toy that stuck to the edge of the tub with a suction cup. I was fooling around with it—sticking it to my forehead—and gave myself a perfect round hickey caste-mark. So you could superimpose a geometric suction-cup hickey over the organically-shaped one and tell people that you got it playing in the bath.

i totally did something like this. i was 17, and working at a branch of WH Smiths, and supposedly meeting my girlfriend who was university in oxford later that night, and kind of excited about it and talking about it with friends at work. only we broke up that nigh5t before i even left for oxford. anyways, a couple of nights later i was watching tv in the kitchen feeling miserable, and i started goofing around with one of those pneumatic wine fresheners that suck all the air out of an open bottle of wine, so it wouldn't spoil. i was attatching it to my arms, my hand... i even attatched it to my neck. and it wouldn't come off. and when it finally did, it left a massive hickey on my neck. so when i went into work next, with the hickey still angry on my neck, all my workmates congratulated me on what had obviously been a weekend of passion. and i had to inform them that we'd split up, and i'd administered said hickey to myself with a wine freshener.

there are so many such moments in my life where i'm not sure my life hasn't been scripted by some lame sitcom hack.

The forehead plunger hickey might be kind of inconspicuous on Ash Wednesday.
