I had the face laser twice - or, no, it was IPL, so, not really a laser, I guess - but I didn't see any difference. I was told I'd need to have it at least four times. But they were expensive, so I didn't.

Well, I have now had the IPL (LASER is in the name, Zen!) twice. I haven't really seen any difference, but the first time was like, six months ago. I bought two more on Groupon, so hopefully when I get those done, I'll be magically less pink.

I like the experience of facials (someone rubbing my temples, etc.). But I seem to be allergic to a lot of the products used. My face tends to feel tight and itchy after. But I have tomorrow off and an hour and a half massage scheduled. I'm looking forward to that.

Scrappy, I'd hope that person's Spanish is better than their English? But still not for a translating job.

I have been considering Botox because I just noticed this permanent crease between my eyes. It disturbs me now.

ION, I had a 115 minute prenatal massage today and my back feels amazing! I can't get over how, for the first time in weeks, I can put on my pants without major back pain. This is the seco d one I've had and both times, the results were amazing. And she never really massaged a "sore spot". I just got up and felt better.

Speaking of getting shit done, I have quite a lot to do tonight. Anybody want to play along on email, gchat, or fb chat?

I had therapy, it wasn't very helpful.

mac is crying because he got a B&N gift card from some friends. yeah, I don't know either. I tell people, to not get him anything, but a few don't believe me. He will be happy with the gift card in a week or so. ridic.

I am forcing myself to go to bed early tonight. I was up past one last night and I do not want to sleep away my 3 days before Christmas. I want to get shit done.

Intense Pulsed LIGHT. I think. It might still be a laser. Hell, I dunno. No, I'm taking a stand. Not a laser.

He doesn't like presents? Or they're not the presents he wants? Or he's just overwhelmed one way or another and can't deal?

it is not what he wants right then. even if it is, he will decide something else is better. never ever satisfied with gifts. fucking nightmare.

Hi everyone. Today was the first day of my Christmas break and I slept in and then went to my counseling appt and then went to grab lunch and I also bought some earbuds because all the ones I found were broken. I spent the afternoon knitting on my niece's arm warmers and I've made good progress. What I don't know is if I will actually see her on Christmas.
