ita, you're on the list of People to Import. And not just because Pete wants to have you nearby for when he needs an art model.

Jilli, you're just shameless.

What, just because I want everyone to live near me?

See, I think anyone would be tripping over his or her feet to help Jilli. Me, nsm.

Oops. Not because Jilli looks like she needs makeup help, but because she'd be fun to wait on.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Maybe it's just an LA thing, Jilli.

Nope. In the Land Of The Polite, the MAC chicks downtown are feckin' rude.

The uptown ones that are in their own store, however? Lovely and beloved by the theater folk. I need to go there for some concealer, actually.

What? It worked for ita....

Actually, I don't think I'd like living in Seattle. Too laid-back. Visiting often, now, that I could cope with.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

ita, you're on the list of People to Import.

I can't be exported! I just got here.

As for the model thing -- I'd be flattered anytime.

Must. win. Lotto. Then I could have a giant manor house, have all my friends move in, AND have guest rooms for those who just want to visit.

I very much like living in LA, but I also want MUCH MORE MONEY, so I can fly up to Seattle whenever I want (or fly out to the Midwest, NYC, Boston, or DC, for that matter).

I'm very cross that the world continues to not give in to my demands on this matter.

The store at Pentagon City? Try the counter at Nordstrom. I've never had attitude from the staff there.

yep. The counter in Nordstrom is great, but small. I've had to go to the store on occasion. ugh.

Yes, they treat me like shit. Most makeup people treat me like shit. I don't know why.

I'm sorry, Allyson. That sucks. I promise to be extra nice to you in the future, to help balance out the makeup/LA scorecard, even though I won't be selling you anything.

I've never actually had a problem with makeup people, except for this one guy in NY, who told me that my mouth was misshapen and uneven, and I'd need to add lipstick around the outside on one side, in order to even my lips out. I think he was crazy, and that my mouth is fine. I quite like my lips, actually. But yeah, usually no problem at all at makeup counters.

Seattle's not really laid back. We're just generally anti-social housebodies.

This makes no sense to me. In Seattle, they'd be tripping over their feet to help you.

This is true. And the Sephora ladies would greet you cheerfully, possibly even by name. Even if it's been a couple of months since you've been in the store.

::cough::

Not that I've had that experience in the last week or two...

The Prescriptives people up here tend to suck, at least the downtown ones. Laura Mercier, if you can find a time when the freaking booth is staffed, has nice people. I've also had good luck with the people at Stila and Origins. Oh, and the Brass Plum makeup section at Nordies is great, and usually staffed by hyper gay boys.
