Well, I think we all know how that was going to play out. Now off to nap.

My dogs will bark, whine and scratch until they get a)food b) to go outside.

Darb is scarily well behaved. (Scarily because it's quite clear she was treated extremely harshly in the past.) I honestly think she'd have to be left on her own for like 48 hours before she'd pee. Barking and whining would probably actually be *good* signs.

But she does now express her preferences a ton more than she used to. Puppy dog eyes of doom are her weapon of choice, and she wields them like a master.

I completely revamped my make up collection based on buffista recs and I've never had more fun.

For reals. These past few years are the first time in my life I've worn make-up regularly at all, actually.

So I was going to go to church this morning, for the first time in yonks. I went to bed at midnight-ish. I WOKE UP AT ELEVEN. WTF. I didn't think I was really that tired.

I really feel for Darb. Seabiscuit was playing fetch in the hallway and I threw his toy and it caught the broom and knocked it over, badly scaring him. Remember, he`s afraid of all sticklike objects from being beaten. And this morning he was still afraid of the broom lying on the floor. I had just been wondering if he still remembered his past, but apparently he does. But on the bright side, he is an amazing gregarious, playful dog, and is for the most part completely over his fears and behaviours from the abuse. It`s hard to remember the dog he once was. So Darb will get there. I`m so glad she has you now.
 
And thanks for the eyeliner tip, Steph, will have to try. I`m still happy this morning fromlast night`s "super awesome" makeup compliment.

I never wore make-up regularly until I hit my 40s. I wear some sort of sheer foundation/sunscreen everyday. Sometimes just sunscreen with some powder on top. Also a concealer for the redness around my nose. Mascara, too. I don't wear lipstick because it feels weird. I do wear this, though, and love it: [link] Looks good, lasts most of the day, and I can't feel it. Oh, and blush, because Carmindy told me to.

I wear eyeshadow/eyeliner if it's a special event.

Oh yeah, I always wear blush with the foundation.

I think I'd like to wear makeup, but I have no idea where to begin. I have several sets, but all seem weird and uncommunicative to me.

One more thing to wait and see Buffistas in person for.

Unless I'm just running out to pick up milk or whatever, I always wear a little concealer, some very light foundation, translucent powder, a little blush, and mascara at the very least. But if there's time, I'll do a bit of eyeliner or shadow, too.

Oh, and I always have at least a tinted Burt's Bees on. Usually Cocoa or Peony.

for people wanting to moisturize and have sun protection, I recommend Oil of Olay with spf15 - they have a sensitive skin version. My foundation is also SPF of either 10 or 15. Shiseido Powdery Foundation, I highly recommend it for people who do not like liquid foundation, but want more than loose powder.

I recommend Oil of Olay with spf15

Yeah, that's what I use too.

I haven't owned makeup at any time this century.
