That’s what some people have been asking this week.

Answer: Sleep, stress, and sugar.

I have completely broken out. I didn’t know you could still break out at the age of twenty-eight but my friend Emi said that it’s possible to get adult onset acne. Oh, it has set in alright. It has colonized the entire left side of my face.

My work events are finally over. But they have left an indelible mark on my skin. I guess the lack of sleep and the over consumption of donuts, bagels, and high fructose corn syrup to keep me awake have incited an over production of oil glands.

But I shall prevail! I shall not let adult onset acne control my self esteem!

But, seriously, will this shit clear up by tonight? I have a party to go to.

You have no idea how excited I am that all my work stuff is over. But I learned alot of lessons. I learned it is unwise to run from event to event in precarious heels and that you should always carry a stack of bandaids in your purse. I also learned that if you’re starving but in a real time crunch you should just grab a kebob from one of those street vendors. That way you can run and eat at the same time. Genius!

And the highlight of the week was meeting this individual. Unfortunately it was at the end of the evening and I was drinking red wine like water. Not so genius.
