Susan and Gloomcookie have new tags. Health-ma for Jeff. Marriage-ma for Gud. I disappear again.

How much longer will it be before it's really okay for mostly-straight guys to wear makeup? I mean, I know enough about how makeup works to know that given a bit of the right foundation and some properly applied eyeliner, I would look much better than I do, but what's the point if the same girls that then find me hot are immediately disgusted by the "feminine" nature of said makeup use? It's annoying. My eyes are by far my best feature, and yet they are doomed to fade into the paleness of their surroundings, not allowed to shine through their contrast with a thin dark line of artificial shadow.

Late to the question, but Gaultier already has a men's line. From what I remember it's concealer, bronzer and eyeliner. Here's his line "taut beau" [link]

I only went to my 10 year reunion because my dear dear friend wanted to go. I found it, well, tedious. But at least I can safely say I'm over the whole reunion thing now.

Here's Annabel's birthday cake, showcasing my lack of anything resembling cake decorating skills, and another picture of the birthday girl herself: [link]

I did not go to my ten year reunion. I kind of wanted to, but I also didn't, so it worked out in one way or another.

Susan, the cake is adorable! Pshaw at your decorating skills.

It's 5am and I'm wide awake. Stupid drugs not lasting all night.

I went to my fifth reunion, and found it tedious. I skipped my tenth, because I was 7 months pregnant and in the process of moving. I went to my 15th, and had a surprisingly good time.

I missed my 10-year reunion, and am now only four years shy of my 20-year. Someone get me my cane.

My 20th is this year. Getcher paws of my cane, or I'll club ya with it.

Timelies, oh youthful ones.

My fifth would have been last year, but I think no one actually organized it, so it didn't happen. When it comes time for the tenth, if there is one, I might go.

my 10 year college reunion is coming up in a couple months, I'll likely go to that- thankfully I live locally to the school.

Having a dashing new husband to show off certainly isn't any motivation, oh no.

For y'all with questions--yes, I am in fact going around the world--DC to New Zealand (Auckland, and possibly Christchurch), to Sydney, Australia, to Vietnam, to Cairo, to Frankfurt (just overnight), and home.

Wait. What? Was that a mention of, mayhap, Australia?

I didn't go to the 10th, 20th, or 30th HS reunions. Didn't care what happened to any of them. It wasn't that I had a bad HS, I just wasn't really involved. I left town shortly after that time and don't remember any students that were in my class. Most of my friends were older.

My 20th college reunion will be coming up (yes, it took me 16 years to finish my BS). I could go to that, particularly since Brendon was in the same class.

Puffs up chest. We were given a joint Distinguished Alumni Award a few years after we graduated. That was cool.
