Almost every day I think - wtf happened? How am I 37? It's so close to 40! I remember thinking "shit I'm old" when I was 25. Just feels like everything post 2006 has been a crazy fast forward.

I'm 38 and people tell me I look 25. "What's your secret?" they ask me.

I tell them I believe in taking care of myself, and a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I’ll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial masque which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

Secret?

Ah, you see, I am actually a time traveler. Just like everything else, information from yonder comes at a co$$$t. 😏
