gah!

what the... ?

cleaning today. i picked up an old (1970's? 80's?) stethoscope from my dresser (newly purchased in june).


this is what i found beneath.


i guess some weird chemical reaction happened between the nasty old plastic from the stethoscope and the finish on my dresser.


i'm upset, but what can i do?


buy a runner, i guess, huh?

anyone else have any suggestions on how i can treat these lesions?
