The best moisturizer I've ever used, period



So, I've finished 4 weeks of my derm. rotation. I just wanted to pass on some information for anyone out there who is possibly reading this blog. The best moisturizer I've ever found (and what I was surprised to find the dermatologists at work were actually recommending- no pharmaceutical reps are allowed to come to the academic center where I work- is the above product. I don't use it everyday, but I use it on my face and elbows when I feel like my skin's getting really really dry. You just need to use a tiny bit of this stuff and its really well priced for how long it lasts (you can find it at most major stores, I got mine at CVS). I've only gone through about half the jar in a year. Its really great for super dry flaky skin or patches.

The best shows on TV period




1. Mad Men. Sad but true, no one can ever be as cool as Don Draper.



2. True Blood. Can't beat the Bill-Sookie-Eric love triangle.



3. The Inbetweeners. A BBC show about awkward teenage boys that nobody out of the UK knows about, but is probably the most BRILL show ever.



4. Gossip Girl. OK so this is actually a really BAD show but that's precisely what makes it so GOOD. For me, its worth it for all the fashion I will probably never be able to afford.


5. Ugly Betty. Can't help it, I totally dig the over the topness of this show.

Hat and going out theory


I decided to retry the hat theory. The theory I proposed before that if you go out wearing a hat, tons of guys will hit on you. well to make sure it wasn't a one time thing and just limited to a certain geographic location, I went out this weekend and wore the same hat, in a totally different city. and the results were again the same. guys who would usually never talk to me, guys who would normally NEVER talk to me, came over, made some witty or quipy comment about my hat, either nice like they liked it or mean like asking me if I was a MJ wannabe. Either way, it ended with either being asked to dance, or asked if I would please give them my real number. I swear, this hardly ever happens when I don't wear my hat. I wish someone would try this to verify my theory...
