My skin hates me

There is definitely something to be said for looking younger than one actually is...

...but not when it's because one has pimples.

Pimples are for teens, not those flirting with thirty. I heard somewhere that it can be a positive sign: the skin has not yet dried out and become prone to lines and wrinkles. Or something. It was probably just conjecture designed to make blemished twenty- and thirtysomethings not feel so bad about their complexions.

Whatever the case, I have been fighting a losing battle with the pores in my face the last few months. My forehead is like an oil refinery right now, and I have (for the umpteenth time now) a miniature volcano preparing to erupt on my left cheek. This doesn't happen in the cooler months and it didn't happen "up north." But it sure is coming back at me now.

Thanks so much, humid Florida summer!

I wonder if my stepson left behind any cleansing pads I can pilfer...*goes to check*...
