I feel like a total meme dork coming in and changing the subject. I fought of my anxieties and went for my karate test this evening. I am now a yellow belt. I made it through the test without freaking out and didn't feel like a noodle when I was done. YAY.
You all gonna be here when I wake up?

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.

Yay, Suzi! Congratulations!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Yay for Suzi's yellow belt.
Not so yay for Teppy's anxiety attack. I wish there was an easy fix for that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If you want the rundown on dark polishes, ask Plei. I refuse to acknowledge nail polish that isn't black. Unless it's black with red micro glitter.
Not even charcoal nail polish? MAC had some that looked decent, but it doesn't go with my skin tone as well as I wish. The Vintage Vamp that I got is GREAT. I'm very happy with it. The lipstick will take some getting used to. It's more purple than I normally wear. And very matte. Is matte in? Because I'm still entranced with a hookery gloss. I have a lovely overgloss I use--I forget the vendor.
Congrats Suzi!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
When I was in high school, I had this dark grey nail polish from Urban Decay that drove my mother nuts. Which may have been part of the reason I wore it so often. I think it was called Gunmetal. I have no idea if they still make it, though.

I used to wear Gunmetal! It's dark enough for me. The lighter greys, although I'd wear them in clothing, make me look yellow when I wear them on my nails.

ita, my favorite black polish is Wet 'n Wild's "Wild Shine" formula. It's opaque enough that I only need to put one coat of polish on for full coverage. I know there's a charcoal polish that Plei really likes, I just don't remember the name of it. Raven's Wing, maybe?
Yes, matte lipstick is in, according to some of the fashion blogs.
