Do you mind sharing that title with Alexia, the other half of the Seattle GothFashion Hivemind? Or should I just split the title, and she gets the part where she takes over for Martha Stewart?

Alexia can actually sew, so she can definitely take over the Martha Stewart part. I just know how to arrange things so they look their best. Who's that one on Queer Eye? Carson? I can do that bit.

Goth Girl Eye for the Mundane? Cool.

I can do the decorating part.

But I do need makeup help: What are the pros and cons of completely totally removing my actual eyebrows, other than looking a bit Pink-Floydy when I go round for milk without drawing any on?

today was run around like a mad fiend day. physical for library job, paperwork to library admin, and go get a replacement SS card. which no one has wanted in 20 years. actually getting the card was the easiest bureacratic thing I have had to do in a long time.

but I am still glad that there were cute kids to look at when I got here. and pretty dress. and truely good news from Gud.

Your sweat will run directly into your eyeballs for one thing. Same for shower water. Also, as I recall, Jilli abandoned this practice last year and began growing her eyebrows back. It is so 2005.

"So, four headed moon beast...What did you think of Chanel's fall collection this year? Lots of pockets. IS THAT WHERE THE RIDDLE IS! I'll beat you with my steel reinforced stilletto bitch boots!"

Am I the only who this made want to play an RPG with Aimee?

Sara imitates me perfectly. Sometimes she walks into the living room, surveys the battlefield of Mr. Potato Head and Little People parts, and shakes her head sadly: "What a mess."

Now if you could just get her to say "What a dump!" a la Bette Davis.

The constant worry that you will never be able to draw them on evenly. That's what's kept me from shaving mine completely off. I shave off the outer edge/line of my brows, which allows me to change the shape every day without me having to ask Pete to draw on my brows.

Oh my god, yes! I MUST do this.

You need to update your notes, Hec. I went back to shaving off the outer edges as soon as I went back to trimming my bangs into a batwing point. Sharply-defined bangs must have sharply-defined brows, otherwise it looks sloppy. t / VERY opinionated

Okay, I guess I'm really back, as I have my first meara of 2007.

Astarte! It is nice to see you posting.

Thank you, lovely SJ it is nice to be back with mah bitches.

December Pictures...

The Gud-kinder are way past cute, and approaching lethal. Good camera eye, too, Gud. I especially like that one with the shadow pattern on the floor. Also, happy to hear good marital news. May 2007 bring you and yours all the joy you can stand.

Astarte! Nice to see you around again.

Thanks, Jilli. I thought of you the other day when someone complimented me on my "Goth sense of style". While I can only compete on the amateur level, I thank you for the inspiration.

You babywranglers awe me without the desire to imitate you. Good things, as I think the ovaries have given up the ghost, so to speak.

See, I don't have any outer edges to speak of. Naturally, my brows are low and flat and tend towards each other, in a very Cro-Magnon style. I've been shaving the bottoms and making an arch first with the shaving.

Of course, I didn't care for them the week I was home and sick, and it appears that left to their own devices, my eyebrows will grow down to cover my eyelid.
