My First Vibrator

May 24, 2008 22:06


This may come as a surprise to you--I am at constant war with my skin.  I don't have bad acne, per se, but I have large pores and they get all gross the second I step out of my shower.  I have a litany of skin products that I've tried over the years; Seabreeze formulated for oily skin, Neutrogena bars, alcohol and peroxide, tons of acidic creams and peels and goop of all stripes.  I've even tried grinding sea salt into my face.

Today I saw the Neutrogena Wave at my next-door Walgreens.  The Neutrogena Wave is a small semi-ovoid device to which you affix a "deep cleansing" pad.  You wet the pad and activate the Wave, which vibrates ever so mildly.  I had imagined there would be some kind of circular motion of the head of the Wave to scrub deep into my cavernous pores, but this is not the case.  It just jiggles like a Tickle Me Elmo without the torque.  The Wave is straight-up just a sex toy that may or may not make bubbles, depending on whether or not you use the pad.  My pores are not any less horrible but I do admit my skin feels softer.

I have to apologize to Remi for missing filming on his zombie movie.  I RSVP'd and everything, and I feel guilty about the whole thing.  I would like for him not to think of me as being a total flake but I've basically set myself up to be an asshole here.

Instead of showing up for filming I went to the gym.  I hung out with Kit for a good chunk of my day (I forgot how much I missed that and how much I missed the person I am when I'm around him) and I knew I wouldn't have another chance to go.  I missed going yesterday because Iron Man went longer than I expected so instead I went on a lame hour long walk that didn't really exercise me as much as I needed.  It was very important that I not miss out two days in a row.

I was pleasantly surprised to learn today that I've muscled up my abs to the point that I can take a pretty decent hit to the midsection.
