The good news is that I'm having a good skin day. The bad news is that there's no one around to impress, so I'm wasting it on the people I work with.

There's something about crying sessions over emotional abandonment issues that makes my skin really appear a lot healthier and more glowing. It's a secret that would destroy the beauty industry. If women all over LA started to tap into their feelings of abandonment and fears of being unlovable, there would be no need to buy $50 Dermatologica face cream, or all the other crap women spend their hard-earned cash on. (This is not, by the way, the reason why I break down in tears. I just notice the difference it makes on my complexion.)

I'm no super-model, but I think vaseline, swimming (chlorine is a great astringent), and the occasional emotional break-down is a prettty good skin care regiment.

Just for today, I can take care of my skin.
