I don't think I've ever heard that phrase used in any context. Interesting.

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

The darker the berry, the sweeter the juice.
I always associated that with berries get darker as they ripen.
I was hoping the article would name the colour of lipstick used in that illo. Not that I think it would work on me, precisely. A bit too much blue.
looks at illo again
ita, it could be Chanel Vamp, or MAC Diva. It's too red-toned to be MAC Bing, which is the current "cult hit" limited-edition lipstick. If you're after a color like that, also take a look at Revlon Black Cherry.
(What? Plei knows nail polish, I know dark lipstick.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hmm. Maybe I will visit Sephora. Not that I should be spending frivolous money...
I have to say, when I was little I always wanted to be chocolate brown, and when I thought of makeup it was deep purple lipstick on a milk chocolate face. Perhaps I'm bringing that to the article too.

I just figured out how to identify the "I feel like crap" I've been feeling all day. I feel hung over. I've got a headache, I feel like gravity is suddenly three times stronger than usual and keeping me from moving around too much, every time I do wake up I guzzle about three glasses of water, and it almost hurts to try to get my eyes to focus on anything. But the last time I had any alcohol was one beer several days ago. This is just weird.

Superpower, obsession, either description works. The amount of lipstick I've accumulated while looking for the perfect dark pomegranate wine shade sometimes even frightens me.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Hmm - Dehydration can feel a lot like a hangover. And the guzzling of water - so extreme thirst. Undiagnosed diabetes can be one cause of this.

Well, I've already got a glucose tolerance test scheduled for next week, because of the PCOS, so I guess I'll talk to my doctor about it after that.

I have my car! I should be able to drive it by Friday. I stopped by the hand control company and wrote them the biggest check I have ever written that wasn't for rent.
Ginger, wrt your question, yes every woman of child bearing age should be taking folic acid, but I was afraid that if I posted it that way here I woukd upset people who have no intention of having children. The truth is that by the time most woman find out their pregnant it is too late to prevent Spina Bifida. So, take your multivitamins, drink your orange juice, and eat your leafy greens.

Omnis, thanks for the sympathy and I'm glad you don't have to deal with this crap. Unfortunately, I'n paralyzed below my kneww and can't flex my foot to hit the pedal, and I don't have the hip control to compensate for that.
