The CVS near me has abruptly stopped carrying my facial cleanser (which is cheapo unfancy nothing) and we've had to order some by mail. The wait means I've had to use Ciro's comparatively high-tech stuff, upsetting the ordinary balance of my skin bacteria. Consequently the skin of my face is increasingly pebbled with whiteheads. I have stopped wearing any makeup, since I can't depend with certainty on removal of same. Nevertheless I expect soon to look like white sandpaper.

I suppose we might have gotten my cleanser faster had we ordered through the CVS, but we might not have. One would think the small plastic jar could be put on a truck, but our CVS is for instance sometimes out of bandages. All bandages. An aisle full of no bandages. Because they kept forgetting to order more.
