Okay, I'm getting ready to go out to the first holiday party....
And lo and behold, this gigantic zit erupts out of my right check... Not that one, the one on my face... We are talking huge... I'm serious about this...

So I am 48 years old and I still get fuckin' zits...

My face looks like an aerial map of the swiss alps...

If you look hard enough, you can see Heidi and Call Me Wesley wavin'...

I look like rudolph... Only put together wrong...

Anyway, I feel better in case anyone wants to know...

Good enough to head out to a holiday party...

Good news, I found some clearasil... It's pretty old but I don't think it expires... Or does it... Will I develop some strange skin condition because I used out of date clearasil... Ironic, don't cha think...

So happy holidays, blah blah blah....

Hubby gets them all the time, and I've been getting a whack lately. Stupid pregnancy hormones.

Have fun tonight!

22. Oh, stop whining.


Beauty is pain, darling. And we wouldn't want to be ugly at the biggest soiree of the year now, would we?

Just kidding. I mean, think about it. Do you actually remember a particular zit that anyone else had, EVER?! No. And no one will remember yours, either. So it's no big deal.

Just have fun And if you get self conscious, make a joke about it.

4. Oh, that is too bad......
Listen, at the advanced and ripe old age of 62, I'm still getting them!

Not usually on my face, though...more on my back...PLUS they itch...

Have a ball at the holiday party.......

I know no-one will be seeing the zit, anyhow.....not with that big smile you have!

:hug:

8. Neutrogena makes some great zit zapper stuff
It's available at the grocery store.

In the meantime, have a great time at the party, and everyone will be so happy to see you that they won't even notice.

9. Have a wonderful time!
No one will notice.

Because your smile will distract them.

11. 'Hey there, groovy guys. Got a big date but got a zit
in the middle of your forehead? I'm talkin' about the big, juicy kind, the ones that look like a third eye. Well, if they've been callin' you Cyclops, don't get uptight, because now there's new Medicated Hickey-Off Pimple Pads — by Brillo, hey! Yeah, Hickey-Off doesn't just work on the surface, but goes right down and rips 'em out by the roots! And for those moon-size craters you're gonna have in your head, there's new Hickey-Off Plastic Filler, hey! Comes complete with a putty knife and sandpaper and flesh-tone paint for all the rough spots! So get it together with new Hickey-Off Pads and Filler, and now back to Unamerican Bandstand..."

17. I'm sorry, I'm just giggling, now!
I always had near-perfect skin until I got pregnant and then the "glow" of being with child afflicted me. I broke out for the first time in my life. I was so mad- it was awful! There's nothing like feeling fat and having zits, however temporary the condition is! :rofl: :pals:

21. You can put a band-aid on it or maybe get out the Halloween make up
and do something creative with it like, draw circles around it making it a bullseye, or add a dot and line to make a happy face, etc. :)

24. Ew. Seeing that Evil Rabbit is punishment enough.
People are starving, wars are waging, and this dumbass is worried that somewhere somebody is saying "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas." I hope he chokes on his figgy pudding.

25. Oh, c'mon, some of us are acne-prone

Good luck with the zit. Fucking annoying, I know. ::D

26. People were pointing... Screaming... hiding their children....
Edited on Sun Dec-18-05 01:00 AM by WCGreen
Nah, no one noticed cause I was telling stories... I have a lot of good one's, especially when I talk about my month in intensive care way under the influence of morphine...

The illusions and delusions I had, Oy.....

I figured out what was happening... I wear an air hose that sits on my checks... I think I need to clean it more often as I believe there is stuff on that hose that will clog the old pores....

I wish you a peaceful nights rest ...

with fond memories to guide your dreams.

28. I believe it.....you are a master story-teller!
And yes, morphine makes for fabulous illusions/delusions......

The plastic tubing is a magnet for the normal skin oils and such.....

The occasional wipe will do the trick!

Glad you had such a good time......
