Lizard faced
Nov. 1st, 2011 11:30 pmI got a facial last week, and quite a talking-to along with that. Apparently my skin is both dehydrated and clogged, which sounds pretty unappealing (possibly just short of leprosy along that axis). The aesthetician asked me if I exfoliated -- I said yes, I use this stuff that has papaya enzyme about once a week. But this apparently is nowhere near strong enough to get rid of the layers of crap on my 30-something skin, which makes me feel sort of betrayed. She sold me a classic scrub that feels like fine-grit sandpaper and said to use it 3-4 times a week. And moisturize nightly. And get my butt back there in a few weeks to let her go at me again. I think I will... I have the money, and it would be pretty great to have nicer skin... and, honestly, she had me when she said more exfoliating/moisturizing would make it easier to get blackheads out. :P
Disgusting.
You know what else happened in the last week though? I won that Diplomacy game we had going at the office, and I even won the way I wanted to: in a draw with my teammate. After three months of play, that felt extremely good. Of course, this comic from 3eanuts.com is still appropriate.

Coffee/lunch with all the players is planned for next week, so that we can part as friends.
