    My skin has been breaking out again for 2 months and i hate it so much!!  I've struggled with acne for over 10 years but the only thing to control it was BCP. I knew it would come back a when I stopped the pills but I didn;t think it would be this bad.  I feel so gross and ugly!!

    I went through this a few years ago when I was switching up BCP.  It sucks.  It's kind of pricey, but I had really good luck with the Boscia Clear Complexion Kit (link).  Also taking prenatal vitamins and/or Biotin helped out a lot.

    I'm taking the day off from work today. I just couldn't muster the energy to go in.

    ystaalenburg:  I'll look into that, thanks!  I'm always scared to try new skin care regimens because i'm so sensitive (I tried one a few years ago and it literally burned off my acne and left terrible reddish purple scars).  I'm on prenatal vitamins now so hopefully it starts working for my skin soon!

    I confess to having a bad attitude about my job today.  We are supposed to get 4-7 inches of snow tomorrow.  I had a half day scheduled because of my OB appointment tomorrow.  I sent my boss an email that I was just thinking I'd take the whole day off instead.  It didn't make sense to come in for a half day with what traffic is going to be like, that and I'd have to leave earlier for my appointment.  She sent an email out to the whole department about 10 minutes after I emailed (I pasted it below.)  I'm feeling very bite me about it.

    Everyone,

    As per usual, the plan is that we will be open and expect a full day of business.  Everyone should make every effort to be here, but if you determine that you cannot make it in, you must use vacation time or a floating holiday to cover the day (sick time cannot be used).

    Please let me know if you have any questions.

    @christinavy I'm the same way with sensitive skin.  This is very mild, doesn't burn or anything when you put it on.  It's actually really soothing.  The acne that I had was very cystic and painful, and this stuff was my miracle!

    UGH that would piss me off to no end.  Just come in and say it to my face!!!!  Passive aggressive emails are the worst.

    Evan, I can't stand it either!  I'm just going to let it go until the end of the day.  At about 3 I'm going to walk over there and be like, "Can I have it off or not?"  It'd be really stupid to not give me the extra 4 hours off!  I have the PTO!

    @ystaalenburg I absolutely love Boscia products! They are pricy but worth every penny.

    I confess that i just got a text msg from an old friend. Scratch that we will make that ex friend who is completly selfish and has no regard for anyone else but herself. Anyway she says "hey there lady" so i sent back a simple hi. I know i shouldnt be feeding into her crap but i cant help to want to know what she wants.  Last time she texted me she was getting married and wanted my address. I gave it to her and then she asked about where she could get a copy of her divorce papers since i work in the county office building. I told her and havent heard anything from her since. Not surprisingly, she never did send an invitation. I honestly dont even think she knows my last name. She knew DH in high school but doesn't know that he changed his last name when he was 25. Some friend right? Can someone tell me why I am doing this?

    @seipel12 - why can't you use vacation in the morning and sick in the afternoon? If she wants a dr note just bring in the co pay receipt.
