So I've spoken about my dry skin before (the last time from the bottom of a gnarly pit,) but this winter my skin problems have progressed past the ugly duckling who just takes off her glasses and goes to prom with the football hottie phase, to straight up horror film. I've tried everything, but the situation is just becoming more and more dire. Do you know how many lotions, and potions, I've used? Exfoliaters, hydraters, masks, masques, serums, toners, yadda, yadda, just slathered across my face to try to correct this problem? SO MANY, and my face is still falling off! I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE! I'm so angry! In fact, I'm fucking homicidal!!!!

Oh shit! Do you hear that John Carpenter synth? That's the soul music of someone who has given up hope for the good life and resigned themselves to something much more sinister. Something like murder! And what do all the cool horror movie villains have in common? WICKED COOL MASKS TO HIDE THEIR DISFIGUREMENT! All I'm going to have to do is pick a mask, get used to slaying (all day, errday, bb,) and I can finally go about life without worrying that people are judging my face! Plus everyone knows that the murder monster never dies, and by the the 10th installment maybe I'll get to go to space! Added bonus, blood is great for the skin. Just ask Elizabeth Báthory about all the pore benefits of virgin blood. And now that this is a slasher flick there will be plenty of both around! Fucking WIN-WIN!

Wait up, hold the axe, did you know that apparently lotion with aloe vera is supposed to help with dry, chapped skin? Well, I don't have any lotions with it, but I do have some of this CVS Aftersun Cooling Gel for when my dumb ass forgets sunscreen in the summer. It also has lidocaine in it, which is a topical pain killer, so it soothes the skin as well. Just make sure to add moisturizer over the top of the gel after it drys or your face will get even dryer.

Upon application my skin has instantly calmed the fuck down. In fact my "urge to kill is fading...fading....fading.... RISING!!!! fading... fading.... gone..."

Well I guess before I sharpen my knife (or maybe string my crossbow? What about a mace? Has anyone used a blowtorch, before?) I'll give this a whirl for a while and see how it goes. Can't hurt anything but the body count! Till next time, merry mayhem, and happy human hunting!

Addendumb! I don't get paid for my endorsement. I wish, but alas I don't.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
