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.

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.

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.

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

I like that silver dress, ita. Very pretty.

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.

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)

I like a lot of my clothes, but I like nothing more than that dress. It was...I had to buy it, and I had to find occasions to wear it. It's just fabulous. I hope to be able to wear it for a while more.

I feel like I'm leaving my father out. He was very cute that night too.

My sister wasn't there, but this is what she looks like now. It's her birthday, BTW.

You of all people! I thought you were an, ahem, shoe-in!
