We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

That sounds superyummy, Hec. Except that I don't like gin. But still.

I don't really do "everyday" makeup. Nothing or dramatic, really.

I go through stages when I'll do full makeup, but right now I'm going in to work bare-faced most days. If I'm having a "bad face" day, I'll wear concealer, mascara, and lipstick.

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

That sounds quite refreshing and delicious!

It is!

That sounds superyummy, Hec. Except that I don't like gin. But still.

You could probably get away with vodka in this because fresh spearmint, lemon and blackberry are strong enough flavors that the gin is less essential.

Make me one, Hec!

C'mon over!

If you're curious, here's a pic of the Orr statue.

Oh cool, I'd hoped it was The Goal!

My neighbor across the hall apparently bought a new dog that barks constantly today. Tonight I have a migraine.And a dog whistle.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

My friend was on a Blueberry Absolut and Sprite kick for a while. They were pretty good.

I don't like gin, but I imagine that would be pretty tasty with vodka, too.

I've loved makeup since about 5th grade, was a makeup artist at Lancome for a while, and I've gotten really fast at it. I like to take my time when I have it, but some medium gold shadow, dark green pencil liner, mascara and some Black Honey balm take about 3 minutes and makes a WORLD of difference in how awake and together I look.

What's funny is that Dad, being a St. Louis native, watched that game on TV and was rooting for St. Louis...

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

I found another lemon, so I made another one.

Mmmmmmm.

My family's off on a smoothie run, and apparently nobody bothered to bring their phone.

Come home family! I've made dinner. And Jacqueline, I've got a whole new cocktail treat for you.

I wish I had a lemon tree. Le sigh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thinking about it, we weren't allowed to wear makeup to high school, so I have absolutely no basis of reference for that. There was one chick in our clique in university who wore a "face" almost all the time (we did look at her funny when she wore no makeup), but other than that, I was probably the most heavily made up with occasional bright lipstick.

It's not like my mother didn't wear it daily, just that it always seemed to be something people older than me did. Never peers. And even now, when I look around the workplace, maybe since I'm in IT, there are a lot of barefaced women.

As for the shaving thing, I know it's a genetic lottery issue. I could pretend I'm making some sort of feminist stance, but honestly, I'm just fine-haired and it bleaches blonde in the sun anyway.

Unrelatedly, I was listening to my wayback machine (aka iPod) the other day, and Kris Kross came up. Wearing your pants backwards? WTF was up with that? Did kids ever follow that trend? I need to find out what happened to those guys. I do remember thinking the light skinned one was kinda cute. However, also kinda 12.
