In other news, y'all, I had TWO glass toys break in the mail on their way to me.

I am so bummed, even though it's, of course, being swapped out for me.

Bummed and a little afraid.

Exactly. Like I'm really good with theatrical and cosplay makeup, mostly with eyes. Eyeliner, eyeshadow, foundations and mixing.

However, lipstick hates me. It hates me super hard.
I've bought 2 tubes of lipstick in my life, but each time I try to put it on I feel like I look like a clown... Just not great at makeup I guess

Perhaps someone could do grooming/shaving.

My best friend was a dancer so she Knows Cosmetics
and she told me that I've been putting my lipstick on for my whole life.

i thought the point was just to colour inside the lines,
but apparently there's a whole ~*technique*~ that's gotta be followed.

off to make chili (not vegetarian... not all homemade either today... so lazy) for supper. Mr and kids home from the library! I think they checked out the entire children's section!

Woooow. All of my Eden packages are so tightly cushioned that I couldn't imagine what the mail carriers would have to do... Do a jig on the box???

That definitely shouldn't happen. I have glass things (not dildos, mind you) shipped here all the time, and that;s never happened.

I'm with you on the lipstick, I feel like I'm trying to be the Joker.

I don't know. I think the postmen in NYC are really bitter and angry or something.

My last really big order had problems also. Unfortunately they decided to ship everything in one huge box (about 4' tall) and not everything was secured.

I'd love to talk hair and clothing too.
I see girls who do their hair so cute. I wanna be cute too. Tired of wearing a damn ponytail.

They both broke (it's the same toy, tried twice) in the same place, and they didn't really shatter, just cracked but it still makes me all

the manufacturer kinda had crappy packaging so i'm not really surprised, but STILL.

I agree. I mean, I don't wear make-up, but I like seeing everyone sharing ideas and learning. I really like that.

(You guys could all send Victoria messages! )

Did not say that! But you drank my beer so I'm feeling a little unfinished.

I think the Pyrex toys are designed to do that, crack/break rather than shatter.

Girl with Fire sent me some salt scrub and candles, and she wrapped it up tight and wrote fragile all over it, when it got here, the container for the salt scrub was broken in several pieces, completely un-usable. And I'm in MD.

Ah that sucks! I'll remember that for my future orders though. Bigger is not better.

I'd like some pasta too. Maybe some iced tea.
