zit

i have a stress zit.

aargh.

of course, right before an event, my renewed commitment to advertising (and correlating workload) has resulted in a mini mountain on my left cheek. perfect placement. i mean, i really couldn't have asked for a better location for a bright red bump to appear.

it's one of those burgeoning ones too, like it won't peak until after the wedding, for goodness sake. it just lies dormant and angry, taunting me with its refusal to bloom.

even my pimple is a tease. sigh.

still, i will treat it with tlc, and i will rub clinique's spot healing gel on it. i will relax. i will breathe. i will recognize that the world will keep moving.

eventually. and on my command.
