Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Cass, are we doing that thing again where we are color twins? I think we are.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

We are. It's better to think of it as a useful tool than to realize it's a little creepy.

Oh, and I am mailing you something indirectly. Finally. Speaking of color twinning.

And if we are? I highly rec lipstick shopping with Jilli. As soon as you hear her mutter, "brown," you can just hold out your hand. Works really well and is apparently funny to watch.

Oh, not creepy at all, I've decided. It's fun!

And I'd love to go lipstick shopping with either you or Jilli, any time really.

Oh yes. heh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Jilli, could you rec me a good dark bright red? I currently mix one with Mac Photo and someone's Persian Tapestry,

Back from watching Nick Brendan in the Santaland Diaries by David Sedaris. Funny stuff. Now I decide if it's worth going to sleep before I go to the ER or I should just putz about online and stuff.

Ugh ita. What an unfun decision to have to make every weekend. But I'm glad the early part of the evening was so enjoyable.

It's a system that does seem to work for us.

NARS Scarlet Empress. If you don't put it over a wine lipliner (which is what I do when I wear it), it's a nice deep, but bright, red. (When I wear it without wine lipliner, Pete does the headtilt at me and tells me my lipstick looks oddly light.)

I have a hard time finding the right pinky-purpley-brownish lipstick. I have a couple of lipglosses, some of which are very good, some of which are too much of one of the above (I have a very purpley lipgloss, and a very pinkybrowny one, but I would really like a lipstick).

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

The Bad - I'm still awake.

The Good - I believe the photo book is done. Will review again in the morning. Been working on it for way more hours than I expected.

The Best - this is something I have been working to accomplish for almost a year, so I feel like I have finally done what I intended to do.

One of those quick start nights at the ER. I've only been sitting five to ten minutes when a nurse comes in to find a line. And she does find it, third time around, in a really painful spot. Normally they don't go looking for a line until I've been examined by both a nurse and a doctor.

But now's the lull. No meds until a doctor sees me, access notwithstanding. And some procedure is being done elsewhere. Who knows what that will imply.
