What about a super-nice hairbrush? Or other hair stuff?

LIKE A GIANT MINNIE MOUSE BOW.

Okay, maybe not that. (BUT DO IT.)

Congrats, lisah!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have perfume that I don't use enough of.

I'm...sensing a theme here.

I could get some lipstick. And the hairbrush idea is intriguing, though I don't actually know what the difference would be between a drugstore hairbrush and a fancy hairbrush.

ETA: Holy crap, there are $100 hairbrushes?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Yep. A good boar's head bristle brush is a thing of wonder.

I have heard that the fancy expensive hairbrushes are fantastic, like Maria says. (I use a $6 drugstore one because most of the time I don't even brush my hair since it is an insane curly tangle.)

I could get some lipstick.

Sephora carries Besame Cosmetic lipsticks now, which are really great.

Ooh thanks for that reminder! (Want to start spending that paycheck I haven't gotten yet!)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yay lisah!!

I am going to scream. I'm working toward a deadline, due to being on vacation next week, and need input from one team. A member of that team told me that they would have time to review yesterday. I sent the draft, and today heard from a different member of the team that the two main people are actually unavailable and can they get back to me early next week? I AM ON VACATION!!! I can't decide if I should leave it for my colleague to finish up or if I should just suck it up. (I wish my vacation were abroad in a location where it would be hard to spend a couple of hours working, but it is not.)

ARGH NO!

I think my standing 4-5 pm Friday meeting is getting cancelled today which means I could may run and get a pedicure.

A pedicure is an excellent idea! I got a 25% off anything coupon from CVS, so I'm going to see if they have the kind of electric foot file they had at the best pedicure place ever. My usual place isn't that great on the filing front.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

All-day interview for husband on Monday, and they suggested that rather than leaving that afternoon, he could look at houses on Tuesday. I'm going with him, so we'll both get an idea of the city and see if we like it.

Please let this work out. If anyone would like to offer sacrifices to the Flying Spaghetti Monster, I'd take it.
