Rant

In what seems to be the only consistent thing on my blog, here I am posting before my birthday. I suppose every year around this time, I feel the need to assure myself I'm on top of things and in control of my life. I'm getting older and can't leave life for later. So naturally, I hop on to the blog and post away.

Now for rant:
I was going to post a decent picture of myself since, in the pictures on the main page, I probably didn't shower the days they were taken; I am dirty, sweaty (sometimes bloody) from whatever physical activity I was engaged in; and I look like a dude in one of them. If you can't tell already I'm a bit on the vain side. I was able to get over myself enough to post the unflattering pictures, but with my current posting rate those pics have remained in the front. (No that wasn't the rant, just a subrant). However I am having to forgo that plan because I have two huge pimples on the left side of my chin! WTF? Freaking acne! (Now I am at the rant) I am almost 32, I am aging, I am developing wrinkles (I can't see them yet, but I know they are hiding somewhere in development stage) there should be no room for acne. As my good friend Sarah says "It's not fair to have both" (more of a paraphrase than a quote, but I'll keep it quoted anyway). I would be less worried if they were external (using vague language to avoid visual description the universally repulsive sebaceous surprise), but no, they are the lousy, internal red ones that hurt when you touch them and take a week or so to disappear. Note to physical self: You are old, don't let the soccer playing, need to party, and general immaturity fool you. This body is done with acne!

and what happened with the decent picture? couldn't find one that you already had, instead of try to take it today?

acne + wrinkles (yes, we see them now...)... not your day...

tic tac tic tac tic tac...

I can usually tell who the anons are based on their comments, be it outside references they make, grammatical mistakes, or me actually being there when they write it...but I don't know who this is. You don't have to reveal yourself, but give me a clue

I haven't taken a decent pic in a while, maybe I'll dig around the camera on the off chance I did. Hopefully all my wrinkles that you see don't show.

Rant away my aging friend! I don't see any acne or wrinkles, b.c let's face (ha!) it, I don't "see" you! More pictures would be nice, but I'm just happy to see you blogging again...even if it is just a rant!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Yes, my anon friend, this does not excuse Carrie for not putting up more pictures! The demand is still there Care-dawg!
