Christmas Day; Should this still be a struggle?

It's Christmas Day. And I'm at work. And I'm anchoring. And I have acne. Nothing new here, and certainly nothing to put me in the Christmas Spirit.

Almost 2 months after I've started my 'miracle drug' and I'm wondering should this still be a struggle?
Should I still be in the pattern of 4 breakout bad days, then 2 okay days, then 4 breakout bad days...

Isn't this mega drug supposed to be getting rid of that vicious cycle??

I'm working on Christmas. When I tell my family this they think it's as normal as buttering your toast. When I tell my running partners the next day they think I must have the worst job in the world.

"You had to what?? That's not right". Observed my cutie little friend with the long swinging blonde hair. Picture one of those cute soccer players in high school. Y'know, Effortlessly pretty, thin, clear skin.

It may not be conventional, but it's sorta what we sign up for.
Work hard enough in my business and there's a whole slew of wonderful rewards:

Weekends off, some Holidays off, a chance to rise above the poverty level (most of us start out at around $19,000 a year).

Gain weight, look horrendous, get preggers, stumble over your words one too many times, have chronic bad acne, and you run the risk of losing those hard-fought perks.
