Kristin, you are of teh sweet. Also? A little hottie!

My ass is flat as a pancake. *sigh* I wish I had a little. Help even out the boobs.

x-posty with Bitches:

Hee! Not sweet...honest!

It was so damned nice to finally meet you both.

but my memory is of line dried jeans feeling like crap.

That's why once they're dry, you toss them in the dryer with a partially wet washcloth. Then they lose their crispiness.

I wear make-up every day, even if I am not leaving the house. It is part of waking up. Like Robin, I rarely reapply-- it is really te FEELING of having put my face on that is best.

I fell MOST like myself when I have some sort of style... lately that has gone by the wayside in favor of wearing clothes that fit/somewhat blend into the office drag required by my fat-hating, non-conformity hating boss. And it sucks.

I still NEVER leave the house without a scarf.

I think it all about being yourself/being comfortable in your skin. I fEEL better wearing hot pink with leopard trim than I do khakis and a white shirt. I feel like a fake in the khakis and white shirt...

I hate it when I look like someones mom. I am short and plump and sweet looking and if I don't watch out, pictures are taken of me where I look like I am about to cart the kids off to their next soccer game. This is just not me

Not saying that on days when I am wokring 8 hours at my job, then 13 hours at the theatre that I even am awake enough to care as long as I have clean underwear. But I feel better when I can care.

On the other hand, one of the things I find most attractive about a person, in real life, is looking useful. When I was younger, I couldn't wait to have hands like my aunts at the farm, calloused and whith dirt under the nails. I love how I look when I am doing costumes all day, and I have paint under my nails... I have been DOING something.

My dad told me that in the 50's they wore their jeans so tight he had to put them on wet and let them dry. I think I went momentarily blind for a minute after that.

I ALWAYS dry my jeans in the dryer.

OH yes. This! Especially hands. I have always been attracted to people with hands that look like they've been used.

BREAKING NEWS: Grenade thrown in front of Bush in Georgia; more to come

Was I the only one thinking "Georgia? Like, Atlanta? Didn't they vote for him?"

I ALWAYS dry my jeans in the dryer.

Me too. And I always buy them slightly too big because I carry my keys in the front pocket and wallet in the back and that doesn't work if I buy 'em the "right" size.

Anyway, I'm avoiding writing employee evaluations on two young engineers who work for me so I found some fun Grey's Anatomy stuff instead. Here's the mom of the twins that played the cutie toddler on this week's ep, talking it up at ABC's message boards. [link]

I got girlier as I got older. I learned to avoid fad fashion at all costs because often, it makes me look like a lump. The more confident I got with myself and comfortable with my individual style, the sexier I felt. And I think it showed. I love to have the time to primp--wash, tone, moisturize, makeup and do my nails, etc. It feels luxurious and that always makes me feel better. Sadly, I'm lacking the time these days. But DH tends to tell me I'm cute or sexy when I'm a bit disheveled or have bedhead so it's not so bad.
