I mentioned to Sarah that I don't wear makeup to work on days I'm working out at the gym. It's just one extra step, when really, I go most of my day without seeing very many people anyway.

I don't know what it is about make-up and the attachment women have to it. It's like we get to cover up and hide behind things called translucent powder. (the irony of caking it on for the sake of looking natural) I remember girls in high school/college refusing to even run to the grocery store without putting on their makeup first.

I do admit, I hate seeing/talking to people at the gym. That's probably because I feel like I look my worst then. That's private time. It's when I can sweat and look my grungiest. I don't want to stand around making small talk while I'm sweating profusely and my face is beet red.

So if you happen to catch me on a gym/work day and I'm not wearing makeup, don't call me out on it. I know I don't look all that great, and I don't need you telling me I look like crap. :)
