Final Score: Universe: 1, Me: 0

I'm running in and out of meetings all day (literally, got here at 7:30. I went to bed waaay late--thanks sis' in law!), and I'm off to another very soon, so, we'll have to forgo our Monday musings.

Remember how I said I wanted to look younger by my birthday?

I do.

I woke up this morning to several lovely pimples. Not blemishes, not acne--full blown teenage angst pimples. I now look 14.

Congratulations Universe, you win.

(Even though I clearly lost the Birthday Battle I'm going to see James Bond tonight--because, after all, it is my birthday in Australia, right? And yes, I am totally milking the fact that my birthday was on Sunday last year and it was "no big deal". I'm making up for it with several days of movie maddness. And cake. Ice cream cake. I hope.)
