Just a typical “Saturday” for me today…

I went to bed extremely late last night because I have learned it is a lot harder to have friends while you are away as compared to when you are living near them. I had like 4 quality emails to respond to. My morning began at 6:00 this morning, as does every Thursday morning because that is one of two agreed upon days in which Will’s family calls. It is really hard to find a good time for both of us because of the time difference, so we get the early morning and they get the late night. Will had went to be around 7:30 last night, so we was ready to be awake and talk.

I wasn’t.

After he got off the phone, we talked for a little bit and I’m sure I promised that he could get a brand new truck soon plus ungodly amounts of sex, but I don’t remember any of it because I was almost totally asleep.

Will finally goes back to sleep with me, and around 10:30 our wake up call is my mom calling my cell phone from her bedroom to remind me I have an appointment at noon. How silly- you could just knock you know.

So I hurry and get around and me, my sister, and mom all head to Al-Fanar for eyebrow appointments. I like where we go because it is a trendy little salon and I feel confident that when I need to get highlights they won’t screw it up. My sister went first and then I went. I specifically told the lady that I don’t like getting waxed above my eyebrows. I thought she udnerstood- but she didn’t.

I was pretty mad but it was too late. I didn’t say anything because she had already ripped the hair from the top. I hate that!

So anyway, I think she misunderstood me because she did the top and skipped the middle in between my brows. How complicated can this process be? Oh well, so much for that confidence. She did a really good job, other than the waxing the top ordeal.

Anyway, so then my sister has been wanting to get more makeup so we go to MAC. I have a confession and there’s no nice way to put it. I am a lip gloss sleaze. It is a terrible vice.

I love tinted lip gloss. If I had to pick one cosmetic other than mascara to wear for the rest of my life and no others I think it would have to be some sort of lip product. I’m a big dork when it comes to this stuff. Here’s a pointless side story that I will bother you with.

I carry carmex chapstick around in my hoodie all day around the house. I even have it on the nightstand in case I need it in the middle of the night (how weird). Well, last night I was so tired that I just landed in bed, chapstick and all. I felt it slip out of my pocket in the middle of the night because it was poking my back, so for some thoughtless reason I just shoved it under my pillow and went to sleep. This morning I woke up and it was gone. I complained about it all afternoon. Will is used to this occurance. I have lost more lip sticks and lip glosses than an army of models. He just rolls his eyes and doesn’t even care to help me anymore. (I tend to be a little scatterbrained as it is anyway, so losing things is a common thing in our house)

Anyway, back on track… we go to MAC. My sister picks out this pretty eyeliner and this beautiful “bronzie” lipgloss. It is so pretty, but I totally disregard it because not only do I have lip gloss issues, I also have problems with going outside of one color.

So I buy this really pretty shimmery pink called flashmode. I love it. I stick it in my purse- right next to a Clinique color that looks exactly the same. I’m not kidding. Why do I do this? We’ll go on because this stupid story gets better.

So them my sister wants to get foundation, so we head to Clinique. I love Clinique lipgloss. They are so pretty. I see about 4 shades I want- all but 1 are pink- but am proud of my self control. My mom, however, trying to be nice picks up one she knows I adore and buys it. I am very appreciative but also annoyed because I literally have 2 more of the exact same color back in my lip stick bag- which is about the size of a small suit case.

How in the world can I let myself do this? I know you all don’t care, but I really annoyed myself today after looking through all of my lip sticks and stuff: pink diamonds, pink silk, pink ruffle, pink shimmer, stike-a-pose rose, kissyfit, airkiss… the list goes on and on and on.

How can I be so monolipglossed? I wasn’t as excited about my new purchases when I put them next to all of my other stuff and they just looked the same. Oh well, live and learn. I made P promise me that next time we went shopping for makeup that I am not allowed to look at pink shades and I need to branch out more.  A lot more!

I am so sure you all enjoyed hearing about my strange lip stick antics. Sorry, but I never realized that I had “issues” with lip color. I have other shades, but they are drowned out by my pinks. Anyway…

We got home and Will (surprise surprise) was playing Madden and was so excited for me to join him. I know how much he loves playing, so I try to be excited and play too- but I just don’t get into like he does. I tell him I think they put subliminal messages in the game that tells girlfriends and wives to take a nap or leave their significant other alone to play their game all day, because I am either sleepy each time we play or seriously bored. I have to admit, I’ve been having a good time playing lately because I’ve been doing really well, so it makes it much more bearable.

This evening we decided to go out for supper. We went to Buffaloes, this southwest cafe. I always like it because it reminds me of home.

We got home a little while ago and have just sort of sat around. I jumped into bed to get into my pajamas tonight and found my carmex, which ventured to the bottom of the bed. At least Will can’t say I’m always losing stuff!

That’s about it for my day off. Sorry I went on and on about my stupid lip gloss derrangements. What a goof. Have a good day. <3
