I transitioned to my middle name when I started college.

I have a friend who changed to her last name when she started college. To everyone before, she's Christina, to everyone after, she's Christina. But her college friends all call her LastName. It must sound so odd to her family, especially. I remember I called her family home once and asked to speak to LastName. Oops. I actually didn't even realize she'd made the switch until a month or so in. Must've asked her her last name.

I have a friend who switched to nickname of her last name in college! I don't know if she still goes by it now that she's married and has a different last name (that would be really confusing to people! "Hi, I'm First Last, but I go by Zimmie...")

Has anyone here used the standard Smashbox Primer and the green-tinted one? My mind is convinced that the green-tinted one doesn't give me the same creepy smoothness the uncoloured one does. I'm running out of green and trying to decide what to buy next.

I always use the green one, but I'm very very pink, so for me it makes a difference.

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

I don't think I'm as randomly red flushed as I was when I first bought it. I also haven't been looking at myself in the mirror much. So there's all sorts of unscientificity to that conclusion.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I need to buy primer.

Only my spending cash right now is savings for my compound bow.

I contain multitudes.

ita,

I LOVE your mother's hair. Where does she have it done?

She doesn't wear it like that any more, LeN. The sista locks were really high maintenance. She wears a low afro now. But she did rock the look. And get mistaken for Toni Morrison all the time. Which she worked the hell out of.

Because books.

And get mistaken for Toni Morrison all the time.

I was trying to think who she reminded me of there. Bingo.

I like that silver dress, ita. Very pretty.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, and today is protective footwear day!

Dammit! The one day this week I'm in training and wearing sandals. But I'm researching protective toe guards online right now (AIFannoying), does that count? My boots are in my car.

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

I always use the green one, but I'm very very pink, so for me it makes a difference.

Does it really not make you look, y'know, green? I'm very pink, but I can't fathom smearing green stuff on my face and coming out normal.

No, not green at all. Unless you were putting it on in VAST quantities. Plus the intent is you put foundation over it (though I often wear it alone)
