Oooh -- Dawn! New Skulduggery Pleasant ON MY DOORSTEP TODAY!
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I don't remember exactly when I started subscribing to Sassy, but I know I read every word of every issue of the last 3 years before it was turned into a weaksauce version of Seventeen, and I never ever cut a single page out of any of them. They live in a box in my dad's closet for now, along with almost every Spy from 1991 through about a year after its near-death experience. If I can manage to restock my lost collection of McSweeney's early issues, that'll be Matilda's college fund right there.

I am sooooo jealous. I have no idea when/if I will get my hands on it. Bro is packing up his house as I type this - he is US bound in a week (yay!) so I'm probably gonna have to order it and then he'll probably steal it.

I have long eyelashes and lots of hair on my head. Unfortunately, due to my Italian genes, I also have long lush hair everywhere else. And due to my other genes, I am super pale. So frankly, I worry much more about hair removal than hair growth. I tend to think even a lot of people who let their leg hair grow would be taken aback by my unremoved mustache and chin hair.

Kicking evil very hard in the face!
t edit I still can't cope with Tanith having a Remnant. I'm not expecting it to be fixed in this book -- that would be WAY too easy -- but I really hope it's eventually fixed.

I have short, sparse eyelashes, but the Latisse thing about possibly changing the color of eyes freaks me out.
This. It kind of freaks me out.

ELF makes a nice, cheap curler. I hardly ever curl my lashes, but I DO use mascara -- if flush, Lancome's Definicils is my One True Mascara, but L'Oreal's Voluminous (NOT THE CARBON BLACK one, it smears like whoa) is my cheap choice. (Lancome owns L'Oreal, so a lot of their products are very similar.)
Out of idle interest, what's everyone's go-to products for getting out of the house face? Not fancy face -- just whack it on, going to the store or work face?
I wash with Olay Sensitive, use Aveeno's Scrub for Sensitive Skin, and Olay's Regeneriste in the am.
Then I use Lancome's Effecernes for blemishes, undereye and evening around the nose. Tarte blush stick, then Philosophy mineral powder on my t-zone.
Sephora's Gel liner in Moss Green, Smashbox's Gold shadow, Voluminous mascara in Black. Brush my brows into shape.
MAC's lip balm in Tender Fuschia, or Clinique's Black Honey.
Takes 5 minutes.

I keep blocking it out... I keep hoping Landry will be take pity on us, but somehow I don't think he's going to.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I have to go to PetSmart tomorrow and get some flea dips and a flea comb.
And treating the house, yes?
I rec using 20 Mule Team borax. I rec it a lot.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Sephora is making really excellent water-resistant liquid liners in surprisingly awesome colors.
