I did not go short today, dude. You would only be disappointed.
You never disappoint me, shrift.
There is a certain rightness in the world, and you are its true north. A kind of cranky competence in stylish leather pants, and a fabulous dinner menu.
Hey! What do you two think you're doing? Fightin' at a time like this. You'll use up all the air!

Owen's friend's mom just told me on Facebook that he's sent her a Google Calendar event invite to lunch at 5:30 a.m. tomorrow.
*facepalm*

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
General question: If you had to do just one, would it be lipstick or mascara?
Mascara. My eyelashes are long but they're light, they disappear without enhancement. I don't wear lipstick because they all dry my lips and I end up chapped. Besides, all I need is a half a drink and my lips will be on fire.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
Despite finally coming around on dressing like a girl, I still don't wear makeup. Mostly because I have no idea of how to apply it. Part of me wonders if I was out sick they day they taught that in Lady School, because I really just don't know how to do it and look good.
How's everyone?

Go visit Ple and Jilli in Seattle.
How's everyone?
Good! Full of gin and blackberries. Watching Diniverse animation all day (Teen Titans, and B:TAS).

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Mostly because I have no idea of how to apply it.
Watch some episodes of What Not To Wear. That helps.

I didn't learn to apply makeup well until well after college. It's not an overnight lesson--it takes a lot of trial and error to find what works for you.

Mm, Diniverse.
I've been scanning old family photos. My forebears were surprisingly stylish.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wear lipstick more often than I wear mascara, but as long as I can have Vaseline to salve my dry lips I'm good. Aesthetically I could go without makeup for the rest of my life and only be a bit bored because of it.
I do enjoy the impact of big, bright lips (which horrified my mother when I was a teenager--she is of the opinion my lips are too big for me to wear the colours I favour), but the only thing I get particular about appearance-wise is my hair, and even that is erratic, because...did I mention lazy?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
More info on the bus crash
Bus passengers told WGN-TV that the driver appeared to struggle with the steering wheel, and that some of the standing-room-only passengers tried to help the driver turn the wheel.
The fact that the bus was crowded appeared to help cushion some of the people who were thrown forward when the bus went off the road and hit the trees, a passenger said.
A CTA spokesman at the scene said the agency's investigation would include interviewing passengers, looking at the "black box" showing functions of the bus systems, looking at bus videos and looking at the mechanical condition of the bus itself.
Huh.
