Acne Study

So I am in this acne study right now where I have to go in every morning between 7-9:30 a.m. and every night between 4:30 and 6:30 p.m. and get medication applied to my face. Oh and every morning they take a picture from every angle. (not a pretty thing when you have no make up and your hair is slicked back with a head band.) :) After it is applied you can't put makeup on for 2 hours, which totally sucks since I start work at 7:30 a.m. But I'm getting used to it. Anyways...after 6 weeks of this I get paid $2,150!!! Pretty sweet huh?
So one day Bryce was in there with me, you know...Bryce my beautiful skinned husband? Well...one of the old farts that work there was like "is your acne not bad enough to be in the next study?" He was slightly confused, but he got screened and qualified! Totally unexpected. He had 11 pimples...(only 2 of which you could see if you weren't a trained dermatologist) and you need 10 to qualify. So he's going in every morning, put the medication on and get his blood drawn for 6 days and after that he gets $500! It's totally inconvenient but will be totally worth it. we'll be able to pay off some of the school loans and put some in savings which will be fabulous! Anyways....just thought I'd spread the good news!
