I had my first visit with my dermatologist yesterday. He took me off
minocycline (which worked well at 2x normal dosage but is really bad
for your liver and kidneys), and put me on doxycycline and using cetaphil
as a cleanser and adapalene and clindamycin-benzoyl peroxide gel as topicals.
I need to photojournal this voyage in hope of dermatological salvation.
The worst thing is that if the above doesn't work, there's Accutane, which
is a proven teratogen. Not only
that, people on it are subject to mood swings, depression, and suicidal
ideation. All to get rid of some zits.
While on the road trip to DC, Eric
mentioned another good blog on the Net, I
traded back Geoff's blog,
which is not like mine (it's good). It's always good to see people
curious about economics and the world around them, that's why it was fun to
spend a road trip talking over life in general.
So, at school today, there was a new MBA gettogether, and I asked around for
a student investment club. Dr. Brown, who runs the MBA program hadn't heard of
one, but recommended that I speak with Dr. Vora. Perhaps a macroecon/financial
statement analysis club will be in the offing. God bless road trips, they give
you time to talk and think about what others have done.
