Huh, Would You Look At That

Cause it’s free and I see that it’s me who’s lost and never found…

Went out to dinner with an old friend I hadn’t seen in a few years.  Good dinner, too.  Nothing fancy, went to a neighborhood style chain place that rhymes with Stooby Ruesday.  I got this nice little hickory bourbon chicken dish that was delicous, but surprisingly spicy.  Like, nose runny spicy.  I like spicy, mind you, but I really wasn’t expecting that.

Anyway, she brought me a little gift bag of stuff.  A nice perfume, some lip balm, and this sort of grab bag of bonus makeup stuff she had gotten.  She’s not much on makeup, so she gladly regifted (and I gladly accepted).  So, after dinner, I got home, and did a bit of rudimentary applications…

It seems you *can* put lipstick on a pig!

To say I’m happy with the results is a bit of an understatement.  While I was in the bathroom, staring in to the mirror, I was really meh about it.  But then I let my hair back down (had it yanked back for clearance) and fluffed it out a bit, and said to myself…well, might as well snap a few pictures.  And when I took this one I nearly died.  Talk about a confidence boost!

Not to mention I’m finally starting to really see myself in photos and in the mirror.  That’s exciting stuff.

Squee!
