Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Honestly? Wet&Wild MegaLength Double Action mascara. I don't bother with the lash extender part, because the mascara itself is very good. It's *almost* as good as DiorShow, but at about 10% of the cost.

10% of the cost sounds groovy to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Waah. My car is off getting $800+ of repairs untill tomorrow and I don't even have a rental and my knee is busted. I guess I'm cabbing it for the next little.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Alexander Brook's illustrations for Modess booklet 'How Shall I Tell My Daughter?', 1954
One that I found intriguing was this booklet from 1954, "... Published for mothers by Personal Products Corporation, Milltown, New Jersey, makers of Modess".
This was one of many such booklets advertised in women's magazines over the years, so moms could send away for information to help them explain the process of menstruation to their growing daughters.
What struck me here, however, was the overwhelmingly somber tone to the illustrations in this particular edition, the work of Alexander Brook, "... one of America's foremost painters."
Divorced of context, these painted illustrations are more than a little bit creepy.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Not really an outdoors type of person, though I guess I'm closer to being an ocean person than a mountain person.(Even if I did have to go to the next state to see the ocean when I was growing up. More often I went to Ocean Beach, which is actually on the Sound.)

Wow that went on and on. I like big skies and rolling hills and rugged mountains and big cities. I prefer my water to be chlorinated and in concrete or tile.
Ion, I am eating at my fav place tonight and can't wait. Fingers crossed I do not get a call in the middle about an explosive child.

At least he'll have plenty of company in the "Please don't kick the shit out of me" corner of the playground.

Peaceful dinner ~ma to you.
