I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

I had a four ounce bottle of moisturizer joyfully thrown in the trash last year. It had about one ounce of liquid in it.

Oh, how crazy-making. Note to self, decant your damn sunblock into a smaller bottle.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It's not a big enough inconvienience for people to lobby for change, I think. I think it's easier just to find work arounds- put it in checked baggage, find travel size stuff, decant into small plastic bottles, buy it when you get there, whatever.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Am trying to type one handed because Nova has her paws on my left arm. Good thing she's so cute...

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I just check it all. That way I have what I need when I arrive and I don't have to worry about sizes and ounces and all of that hoohah. I don't mind flying with minimal make-up--I slather on moisturizer to guard against the terrible dry air (which really helps) and wear some long lasting mascara and lipstick and that's it. I fetch my make-up out of my checked bag when I land if I need it. I never fly anywhere for a short enough period that I could make do with just carry-on luggage anyway.

My luggage got delayed when I went to Holland for my brother's wedding and I pretty much took it as an excuse to by cool foreign make-up.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm pretty sure everything has to be in original labeled bottles. (I bought sample-size bottles of all the things I use regularly, and just refill those from the bigger ones whenever I'm going somewhere.)

Ohgodpleaseno. Because certain things, like my sunblock, don't come in sample or travel sizes.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

My mom just called to confirm my pickup time in the morning and to say I should get a good night's sleep because she's taking me outlet shopping. Whoot!

I don't think it has to be original. I got Mr. Jane a Dopp kit with all the right size bottles and that was fine when he flew to Louisville.

I loves me some outlet shopping! I wish you much bargain-ma, Allyson.
