You've got bad acne? I can't even tell with that beard.
Haha funny dude. Actually I wish it was all contained in the lower part of my face, then it would be covered by the facial hair.

I haven't had a pimple (at least noticeable) in decades. I did a ton of yard work over the weekend (and enough lifting to make me puke, which I did), so I was sweaty and dirty enough to infect some area of my body, which doesn't surprise me. But whatever this is as is irritating as when you burn the inside of our mouth and the skin on the roof of your mouth peels.

I, nor my family, will ever forget my armpit cyst in San Diego, 2006. My Sister was getting her PhD, so my family was nice enough to fly everyone out and we shared a rented condo which was basically a three bedroom apartment. When I popped the armpit cyst, oh dear God. The smell filled each room. It didn't smell as bad as death, but pretty close.

Does it hurt when you press on it?
Sure does.
Those are awful. I had one last year and resorted to draining it myself to get relief.

When I get home I'll have my wife take a look at it, then hopefully destroy it.

Smile: Looks like rain will take care of watering my flowers and plants this week (stop snickering).

Frown: Rain= any remaining weeds will be sprouting like crazy and I'll have to mow the lawn at least twice this week. I know it's a "Louis CK white person problem", but mowing the yard what seems like every other day is a pain in the ass.

Now I know why my neighbors all have riding mowers.

Smiled: Finished up all my work for the Spring semester, ready to kick back this week with Diablo III

Ticked: Got an email 10 minutes ago saying Walmart.com, the one place where I could still find a Diablo III CE for sale the other day, had canceled my order (perhaps it was oversold?)

So....if anyone has a guest pass that would be sweet :) I still want to hunt for the CE this week...

Gonna go down to Fry's myself tomorrow and see if I can snag a copy, I was late preordering.

EDIT: If I get a copy tomorrow and it has a guest pass in it, you can have it.

if you see two...maybe do me a favor? At this point my "drive around to look for one" time won't be until Friday or Saturday, which doesn't bode well.

Won't that be kind of expensive? Game + tax + shipping? Willing to do it.

My copy won't be here until later this week so a guest pass would probably be appreciated.
