Countdown to the 'tane.... T- one week!

One week to accutane! I know it's not a magic bullet and prescription medicine/toxic levels of vitamin A are not something to be taken lightly, but I can't help but be excited. Some of the testimonials I've read say it helps with body acne, too, and I'm curious if it will have any effect on the pilaris I've had since I was a little kid. I sort of feel like pilaris is worse than acne, because there's really nothing you can do about it, it's not guaranteed to go away, and generally people don't even bother treating it. I was really insecure about it when I was younger; some kids in my class started saying I had "pimply arms" and that was the end of short sleeved shirts for most of elementary and middle school!

I just did a little bit of research into the subject and most people say accutane does jackshit for KP, which wouldn't actually be much different from my experience with every other thing I've ever tried for it. There was a cream I was using for a while that was giving me great results but it was in a bottle that was not very airplane friendly so I had to give it up. Some people seem to think that accutane causes KP, but I've already got it so it's not really a concern for me. Whatever. So that's the story of me and my "pimply arms. "

^Above two paragraphs were totally TMI^

Someone on my hall blew up a toilet last night, and it flooded basically four yards of hallway and soaked the carpet. I would like to know what is so hard about using a plunger. Actually, at 3:30 in the morning when they were screaming and pounding on doors about it, I was pretty close to getting up and whacking them with a plunger.

This weekend will, from here on in, be spent frantically writing the ten minute screenplay about zombies that is due thursday. Fun times.
