crucible of ennui

I’ve been kinda relaxin’ on my already relaxed look since the incident. Needless to say - I’ve been lookin’ kinda homeless.

Check out the streaks of white at my hairline. Bride of Frankenstein goes suburban. So I went to see Laura at the salon this last week and got a cut and color. The color is great. Although there’s still this little patch of white at the temple that seems to want to throw off the color and just stay a streak of white. More power to ya, locks o’ determination.

Then I went to the MAC counter at the mall. All the ladies were busy and the next available counter person was a gorgeous female impersonator. YAY!!! Truly - it was my lucky day. Unfortunately my make-up coach had some bad news, although delivered sympathetically.

DQ <leaning in>: So! Did you know that after a certain age a little bit of concealer does wonders for dark circles under the eyes.

Me: <gasp>

It was true. Once he did his demonstration, I was sold. So now my bag is nicely rounded out. I even found a REALLY cool eye compact that has all my favorite eye colors swirled together. It looks great. I think I may need to get a few more color sets…
