This is such a wrong wrong thought.

But it would make a bris so much simpler.

Oh beth, itchiness is way worse than pain of the same intensity. Unless it actually stops when you scratch, in which case it's goooood. But when does that happen? Never.

Listening to public radio on the way home, I listened to this interview: [link]

Basically it is with the reporter that has noted that Shrub has quietly put a little metaphorical asterisk next to over 750 laws enacted during his term that he feels he has the authority to ignore at will.

Zmayby!!!!!!!! I am so thrilled for you both.

Due to Bitchly enthusiasm, I ordered some Alima Mineral make-up samples. I am wearing it today and if it lasts, I am sold, baby! It manages to even out skin tone while still looking like actual skin. Feels all soft and velvety on, too.

It is just fabulous. I am enthralled.

This is why I NEVER tell my parents I'm seeing someone until it's gotten to being an actual "relationship," whatever that means.

I wait until there is cohabitation. Or, once, an engagement.

Though, to be fair, sometimes I don't notice the relationships much before they capitalize into Relationships, just that at some point it goes from "mmmm, person who makes me smile" to something else.

Er...it sounds nice, but how it's mine, I am befuddled...I left a tanktop there? But, ya know, if it gives you a frisson of buffistaporn, well...I'm all for it!

For some reason you were all 'I've had enough of this, anybody want it?' and left it behind. Possibly you had Too Much Luggage issues? Not too sure. And it was duly washed and folded and tucked away, but since it's summery again, and since it coordinates with my skirt, it got pressganged into working.

I may have mentioned before, but it's worth mentioning again, that the first time I heard an ad for "eHarmony dating service" on the radio, I somehow thought they said "R. Lee Ermey dating service."

Which I really need to call him about setting up.

Hmm...after several different "experts" have told me I could wear either warm or cool foundation tones, I may have to order a bunch of samples from Alima and see for myself. I love id Mineral Veil, so if the foundation feels like that it's a go.

I'm pretty sure my dad met Robert when R and I were living together. I know R insisted on the formality of asking my dad for permission to marry me. On average, I would say that my dad met 5% of the people I dated; it just didn't occur to me to involve the parental unit.

Of course, there may have been some aversion therapy there: My mom met my first boyfriend, and she was a complete ass to him, then after he left, snarked that he'd probably stolen the earrings he gave me and ordered me to never see him again. He was a perfectly decent normal guy. Mom was a headcase.

Then hmm, let's see...the first guy I was (ahem) physically intimate with? His mother pulled a gun on me. That'll pretty much cool off any relationship.

I like the way the Mineral Veil feels better than their Bare Minerals foundation but the Alima? Silkier and better.

Can't recall the tone [and by tone, I mean shade and by shade, I mean are you quite pale?] of your skin but I will bring samples of any that don't work for me to the F2F and dole them out to those who wish. This is one of those "turn two..." deals I think. Same with the eyeshadows. There is already one I thought I would love and it just doesn't play well on me.

I am paler than pale. I define "paleface." I am as pale as it's possible to be without wearing light blue makeup or using black market skin bleach.

Although, when I get sun, the non-British Isles genes kick in and I freckle then tan.

If my samples (just ordered a bunch) get here before I leave I will bring some also.

That was more words than you needed to just say: I am you.

I shall bring samples and stuff that had the wrong undertones or were the wrong color for me.

And if you don't have your samples yet? I will have all my products I am newly in love as well and you are welcome to test them. I get orders here in a day (I suspect two would be max) as they are in Portland as well. So I can shuttle orders to SF happily.

Plei unleashed a monster in me. A girlie monster.

Me too! Me too!

Oh. No. Not so much. Huh.
