I've only ever been ignored at Sephora, no matter how much time I spend looking lost and picking up product.

We're going to Indiana this weekend for a delayed family Christmas and to celebrate Liv's birthday. My sister told me to "pack light" because we'd need room in the minivan. *sigh* How many times do I have to tell my family NOT to go nuts? The playroom looks like a tornado picked up a Toy R Us and deposited in our basement.

I also need to get packed before I pick Owen up from school.

bon bon - how cool! I meant to get LASIK last year, but just couldn't ever get my shit together in time.

Really? They swoop on me (at Ulta, as well) and won't leave me alone. Which is sad for them, because I have to run in, buy my Urban Decay stuff, and run the heck out before the perfume kills me.

I saw a magazine somewhere with a feature called "Drying Out With the Stars" (no, I don't have to make this stuff up).

I stayed home today so I could sleep until noon. Because I didn't sleep for more than about 2 hours straight last night and I was so freaking groggy. But I am going to a 4 pm yoga class so i won't be a complete slug today.

I really want the Lasik surgery. But I don't know if it would be possible to correct my vision and I can't really justify it unless insurance paid.

Huh. Randy Quaid is a douchebag. Who knew?

I did. He sued Focus Features for $13 million because they "tricked him" into being in Brokeback Mountain by misrepresenting it as an art house movie that probably wouldn't be seen by many people. After all, who wouldn't have predicted that an indie flick about gay cowboys in love would rake in $200 million at the box office?

Exciting! Did you wear glasses all the time? I ask because I don't necessarily picture you wearing glasses, but I could just be on crack.

I do wear them all the time (no contacts), but I also never remember if someone else wears glasses. Someone was bitching at me last week that this will really change my "look" (that person is also insane) but I don't think that many people will notice that I don't wear them anymore.

Interesting analysis of the WWII-era Minnesota Starvation Study, thought of it in context of our Pollen-inspired discussion of the other day:

I love Junkfood Science. Sandy kicks serious ass.

I'm home from work with both a stomach-ick-type thing AND a migraine. Unfair! As a result, I have about a thousand different drugs in my body right now.

Or, okay, maybe just 4. But that's still a lot.

I really want the Lasik surgery. But I don't know if it would be possible to correct my vision and I can't really justify it unless insurance paid.

I was buying one pair of glasses every year at around $300 pop--which weren't covered by insurance. We used a flex spending plan for the LASIK, which was $2K. After 10 years without needing glasses (or prescription sunglasses or contacts) I think I'm ahead.

The consults to tell if you're a candidate should be free.
