Ew

Wow is it ever hard to find time to blog! I've been trying to work 9+ hours a day and will continue to do so particularly since I found out that my overtime hours are paid time and a half. Wow! Things are continuing to go well at my job. I'm learning more and more this week and gaining more responsibilities and hope I'm living up to expectations.

All I can think about right now is my birth control debacle. I switched pills because my doctor thought maybe the one I was on was contributing to my migraines. I was off the pill for about a month and just started another one. During those times I didn't have migraines and am still not, so clearly the pill is working in that sense. What ISN'T working is the fact that this new pill is making my skin SO oily and I'm breaking out in ways I never have. I think the giant cyst I had on my face is a result of the pill as well. I left a message with the doctor today asking if I could get a Retin-A prescription (Retin-A is a topical ointment that clears up skin), but upon further thought decided I want to go off this pill completely. Honestly, I would rather have migraines than have my skin look and feel like this. I can feel oil underneath my skin, it is grossing me out.

So that's exciting, disgusting news. Sorry for the boring update, my oily skin is currently all-consuming.
