  1. I had the Barbie pool, that thing was so cool.

     

    Did you have the pink corvette? Mine had a "remote control". And for some reason I had a motor home. And an afgan hound. Man, I was spoiled.

  2. I have to tell this story because it's hilarious. I went out with my friend J (the tattoo artist) on Saturday night, wearing this and Topper. And faux leather leggings with a sheerish, glittery shirt over top. I felt like a rock star.

     

    So it's around 11 and the band goes on and I realize that I'd seen them before and had spent the evening flirting with the guitar player (not the one from my Rocket Fuel story, different guitar player). J walks right up to him and says "You know my friend." And he says "Oh ya." So I guess he recognized me. Anyways nothing happened but it was cute that he smiled at me all night.

     

    A bit later, we go outside for a cigarette (ya ya I know) and there is this group of guys. One of them had been hitting on J earlier so we walk over and I say "'Sup bitches?" One of them turns to me (cute but wearing a hat sadly, hats in bar = bald or lazy) and says "Did you just call me a bitch?" And I smile and say "I don't know. Did I?" So he looks me up and down, shrugs and say "All right. i'll be your bitch."

     

    Ha.

     

    Anyways around midnight one of the bouncers comes up and says to J "You're going to have to leave. You've had too much to drink." We are both shocked because she hasn't and we aren't disturbing anyone, just hanging at our table. I look at the bouncer and ask "Can you tell me how you know this?" And she says "She's staggering."

     

    Anyways this is a divey bar and you don't want to be manhandled out of here. I've seen it happen and it's not pleasant. So we grab our coats but when we get to the door J says to the bouncer "I need to go to the washroom. Can I please do that before I leave?" So she escorts J to the washroom and I say to myself "Screw this bullshit. I'm not leaving."

     

    So I walk over to the manager (who I know in passing) and touch his arm and politely say "Hi P. My friend and I have been asked to leave because she has had too much to drink. She hasn't but they say she's staggering." He just looks at me and says "Who is your friend?" I answer "The lovely lady with the pink hair." And he nods and I say "If she's staggering, it might be her 6" heels." He laughs and asks where she is then walks over to the ladies room, talks to the bouncer and J (who has just come out) for a second and says we are fine to stay.

     

    Of course I thank him and we carry on having fun. Success!

     

    So anyways, if you need a little chutzpah this is totally the blend for that.

  3. I don't find this smells anything like Halo's Angelique on me. That was weirdly flowery (but some chocolates do that on my skin).

     

    This is gorgeous though. It's not foody but it is, not floral but it is. I'm a little bit in love. BI is a waste on me (I get zero hits ever) but I'll wear it anyways just for the scent.

  4. I can't read Luna's mind, but since my day job is a copywriter, I can say that writing copy is a funny thing. Sometimes you get these bursts of inspiration and it's all sorts of wonderful the first time around, and sometimes you're staring at the item (or I guess in Luna's case since I work from clothing samples and she works from perfume notes) or item description trying to wring something out of your brain, so you never know what expect even from yourself--it's a mixed bag! :lol:

     

    Word. I just went through that with the xoJane thing. I had to plumb the depths of my brain for ideas and there were a couple of "oh fuck this, I don't want to be a writer anyways" moments.

     

    On the plus side my order arrived this morning but I haven't had a chance to try anything yet.

  5. Hope you have a wonderful vacation! What are you guys planning to do?

     

    You might not miss them, if you bring your laptop :)

     

    Off to WDW with the boys. But we decided no laptops allowed. Plus mine is a 12 lb Dell with a 17 in screen. That baby is staying home.

  6. I know, I haven't even tried my bottle of Because the Night yet because I can't stop with the damn Unisexy. I am NOT READY for Christmas ones yet!!!

     

    I haven't tried any of November's NRs yet because my order is still somewhere in the postal abyss. I want my stuff FFS.

  7. WTH? :lol:

     

    ETA, now I can't get that song out of my head: "Sit on my face, and tell me that you love me!" :lol: Was that a Monty Python thing?

     

    It was. "Life would be fine if we'd both 69 ..."

     

    Dammit. Now it's in my head too. I'd hate you a little right now except it's so catchy.

  8. I don't ever wantto be on a label because apparently I have "teh angry eyez" and no wants to wear perfume that has someone glaring at them on the label.

     

    On a side note, aren't unicorns just horses with bayonets? (That was what I took away from the US election. 47% of it anyways. B) )
