For the first time in…I have no idea how long…a week maybe…I went to bed when Bob did instead of staying up. He gave me a fabulous back rub to relax me and I wasn’t too ungodly restless to lay in bed until I eventually fell asleep. I don’t think it took me too long to fall asleep. But I was awake after about three hours. And here I sit. I guess the sleep was nice while it lasted. And GOOD GRAVY Bob gives awesome back rubs. I am SO SPOILED. I LOVE MY HUSBAND.
I finally got my hair cut on Friday. I had four inches hacked off. It’s now too short for a ponytail. I could scrounge it into one, but most of the short layer would fall out in minutes, so it’s pointless to bother unless I need it for some reason. Sleeping without a ponytail has taken a slight adjustment, but it’s short enough not to be all up in my face without. The biggest downside is the fact that it is OUT OF CONTROL when I wake up. HOLY BEDHEAD, BATMAN. It’s also even more glaringly obvious how badly I need a perm now. But I’ll get that done…eventually. HEY. I bought one when I went to pick up my $40 worth of drugs at Walgreens so at least I made progress.
What?
I have Proactiv Patches™ cropping up on my skin in random locations. This is both aggravating and confusing. I have not used any new products on my skin to warrant a reaction. And some of them are ITCHY AS ALL HELL. Also in locations I have not experienced them before. As in…not on my face. And when they heal…in a couple weeks—because I take FORFUCKINGEVER to heal from any skin damage…there will be scarring. I really hope it has to do with it being winter and the dry air sucking the life moisture out of me.
Regardless–after almost ten years, I still say:
Fuck you Proactiv Solution. Fuck you right in the nose.
I am really crabby and excessively bitchy. I thought it was just residual aftermath of having to actually drive somewhere today (OHMYGAWD do I still know how to drive!?)…that did not go well…
But then I realize…it’s likely the early prelude to next week.
Also my medications are failing more and more all the time. Because I am too screwed up to make a damn appointment.
THAT’S MY LIFE IN A NUTSHELL…how ’bout you?
—
Have you eaten any new foods? Or more of something than usual? I have an itchy spot that will flare up if I eat too much of something…I think sugar is the main thing…when it flares up, I try to watch what I eat for a few days, (a lot more veggies, a lot less bread and junk) drink a lot more water to try to flush my system, and it helps a lot.
I think that a lot of skin conditions are food related, the hard part is finding which food.
Also, the dry air can’t be helping matters, so be sure to drink A LOT of water, and run a humidifier if you have one.
Good luck, I hope you feel better soon.
