Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

I wonder if they could market it the way the Warner Brothers Archive does DVDs of OOP movies to-order, or Rhino's Handmade series.

There are a couple of companies out there that will "re-create" a discontinued color of lipstick or eye shadow. I tried it, and they got pretty close with the lipstick color. (Then I discovered that the original company still made my perfect color, but it was only available in the UK.)

Cosmetics is an EXTREMELY trend driven marker, maybe even more so than tech. If you follow it closely, hundreds of new products come out with giant ad campaigns each year, and maybe 3 or 4 of them have a 10 year life cycle. And that's just product lines, I'm not even counting individual colors.

Especially since the cosmetics industry figured out that if something is limited edition, people will go crazy trying to get it. Or will buy multiples to stockpile.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm just saying, no one's allowed to call them The Aints but those of us who lived through it. (Also, they were hardly "handed" that Super Bowl. Someone's still grumpy about the onside kick.)

I'm watching (DirecTV Sunday Ticket) but I'm kind of distracted.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, for sure. And seeing as how the onside kick came up repeatedly in conversation during the game against KC today, I`d have to say your assessment is correct.

This drive did not help my mood any.

Haven't they called like three false start penalties on Stinchcomb? What the hell is going on?

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

I'm pretty sure I tried the Smashbox primer because of discussion here. But I only put stuff over it, like, once a a year, when I remember I have powder and I have a flashy evening outing. For a while back then I was wearing primer to work every day. It made me feel glowy. And kept my combo skin looking even for a longer stretch during the day.

I have an aversion to putting colours on my face that could rub off on stuff, so primer's perfect. At least my lips won't brush up on surfaces, but I am paranoid about the idea of smushing foundation or blush into cushions or pillows.

msbelle - message insent to you profile e-mail. The other e-mails I had for you bombed.

Major air pressure change here and I woke with a migraine. Drugs are keeping me semi-functional, but dang. I hate this crap.

No trophies for me at tournament yesterday. My worst personal results yet. But I still feel like I did my best and really, that is all I can do.

Our dojo lost out on the tournament trophy by 3 points. CJ is taking the blame personally since he had problems with his weapons form and if he hadn't he thinks her surely would have gotten those 3 points. I keep telling him there are a ton of "if only's" and you can't worry about it. We don't have a Tardis and can't go back in time.

Huh, the Saints are kind of fucked this week.

Okay, make that totally fucked.
