Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Quick post from a Panera: at a kink event in No. Ohio, bought this corset w/red flames and oh my fucking god you guys, I look SO HOT in it. I tried it on and looked down and actually pulled a Willow "Gosh, look at THOSE!"

Pictures tomorrow evening.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Apparently eyelash tint is the proper search term.

Eyelash tint Chicago.

Can't wait to see Teppy's flaming corset o'doom.

David, I am working so hard to get work to send me to SF in May. If it happens I will put myself in your hands.

Like I'm a crappy person. But I'm really not sure what to do with all of it.

Not at all...or, at least if you are, then I am too. I've met two of the three halves. And, frankly, I'm grateful to the other for always knowing where I was but never being in touch. Rather than rejection, it feels like respect.

There are so many people in the world. Why not spend your precious time with the ones who feel good to you and, for whom, you want to do something good?

The rest? Eh. You don't owe them.

eta: wretched grammar

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

eyelash dye

Scares the crap out of me.

smoking in the house

As a former kid whose mom smokes alla time ever'where, I say, go on and ask her to not smoke inside. Your kids' health is more important than not offending her.

Bonny, you look lovely. I've got no help on the makeup front, though.

Can't wait to see Teppy's flaming corset o'doom.

Seconded!

Thanks Calli and Zen, for the nice compliments.

I suppose I should just give it up as a bad job. I have no talent and, while I feel a bit envious when the cosmetic suggestions are flying around, I just don't know if I could pull it off anyway.

It's just that, while I don't mind getting older...at all...it seems like there are some simple things I could probably do to look better, but could never figure out for myself!

That's why I like hosting clothing exchanges. Other people telling me what looks good on me...so comforting.

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

I also have pale skin and freckles and wrinkles. I wear a tinted sunscreen and throw a little loose powder on top. Smooths things out and protects from extra sun. I add a little concealer around my nose due to broke capillaries. I also wear some blush--Benefit makes a nice sheer powder for all over, but I use it as a blush on my ghostly skin : [link] It costs a lot, but you only need a little so it will last a year.

May I also add that you are gorgreous!

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.

I second this, except it was my dad who smoked.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

bonny, sorry I have no recs. I mostly do no makeup or stage makeup.
