A quick drive-by question coupled with a sincere apology and promise to catch up on the 250 posts I just skipped.

Fella and I are going to the masquerade ball tonight and instead of masks, I'm opting to do some facepainting around the eyes. Problem is, I've only ever done Kabuki makeup and don't have any feathery-renny designs. I've googled 'till my fingers turned blue and can't find anything helpful.

eta: Go Spidra you job-getter you! And...cute kittywitties!

Any ideas? All I really need is a nice illustration I can copy. I'm using two colors (plum and jade) and have a couple of nice bindi jewels to add.

Please to advise if you have any. Thanx!

What's wrong with Kabuki style? Is the masquerade Ren-themed?

Okay, just grouchy. Not *still* grouchy. That would be silly because I rarely have reason to be grouchy with you. Blame my undercaffeinated and a tad still sleepy brain.

He's so very handsome, though. And he's okay with other cats and dogs. And he's so very handsome. Which I already said, but he is. I have a thing for senior kitties in need of homes. Kittens are cute but I simply don't have the patience for them.

Did I forget to say Yay for job-having Spidra? I think I did. YAY Spidra! Go you!

And I got nothing in the way of help with make-up stuff. Hell, I barely know how to put on everyday make-up.

Happy birthday, Karl!

Wuv the kitties. As all my kitties are belong to Daniel, I think I should get a new set for me.

I love Kabuki style but our gown/suit are all renn-like.

You could draw some sort of Green Man design on the fella: [link]

And go for a solar motif yourself. Very classic Medieval/Renaissance.

I bought my son a suit for his dance. [link]

I do not have anything for my dance.

Sail, I don't doubt that CS really did say that. She *would*. She's got that feisty Texas chick thing...I voted for her proudly. Fay, great birthday story. My mother pulled off one or two things like that when I was young, that now that money is nsm a mystery, I wonder how she did it.

Someone remind me that I do NOT need Queen's Golden Jubilee tea set - even if it is BNIB and dirt effing cheap.

Heh. First I'm catching up and y'all are talking about food and I'm thinking "Surely I don't *really* need to be on a diet? I should just eat whatever food I want, because food is yummy" (Note: I started diet all of yesterday. And went off it for dinner so I could have chips and salsa and margaritas and avocado cream dip. So, um, started diet today, really).

Then you start posting dresses, and I realize that none of them would fit me, because I have no boobs, and my waist has grown to MONSTROUS proportions. Sigh. Diet it is, then.
