I didn't buy anything yet, but here's what's on my list to buy after I get paid: Sephora Instant Radiance Foundation Tarte Maracuja creaseless waterproof concealer Perhaps the Sephora microsmooth foundation face powder (have to try it still)
Try the new Sephora Instant Radiance foundation. I got a sample and I'm not sure the color's right, but I LOVE the formulation. I look moisturized, dewy, and it stays on all damn day. I have dry skin too.
I would be pissed and would be making his life miserable as well. It's really not that hard to behave like an adult, even around alcohol, even when partying. He'd be getting the death glare and then cleaning *and* giving me a massage to make up for it.
Do you shower with your SO? Is it a sex thing or a practicality thing? Yes. It is almost always a sex thing. Because of this, we can't skier together for practicality, it would take too long.
Do you pee on each other in the shower? No
Does it bother you to be peed on in the shower? Do you/would you retaliate somehow? It would bother me to be peed on, and I would retaliate if that happened.
What do you call your SO's penis? Hades, god of the underworld. Or kielbasa (nickname from when he was in high school).
I most recent unfriended someone for 15 too many offensive, sexist status updates. Some were downright disturbing. He was an ex-coworker.
I'd unfriend for racist, homophobic, and sexist stuff. I've also unfriended because we no longer work together and I only accepted so as not to be rude.
Last night we had great sex, even though it's still shark week.
Today is just the usual working, except that today I'm saying goodbye to a client who I've worked with as a group therapist for 1 1/2 years and individually for almost a year. I think tonight I'm going to my friend's craft group.
Saturday the only big plan is to watch the Devils-Kings game together. We'll probably do errands during the day, maybe plant some san marzano tomatoes. Sunday I've been invited to a huge pool party by one of my coworkers. I'm not sure I want anyone I work with seeing me in a bathing suit, but I might go anyway (free food & margaritas).
2. Shampoo & conditioner, Davines mousse once every week or two when I remember to put in some effort, Oscar Blandi olio di jasmine on my ends to keep them from getting tangled.
3. A couple inches below my chin in front, about an inch below the bottom of my hairline in back.
4. I shampoo and condition every other day.
5. Occasionally I will use a flat iron on the in-between day because on one side my ends will flip out, while they curl under on the other side. I sometimes blow dry my hair, but usually just let it air dry, with or without mousse.
Sorry, this is the best hair photo I had on my phone.
Those of you who are my FB friends may have seen that 3 of my clients graduated high school today. I'm so proud of them all.
One of them was removed from his family at the beginning of the year, was in Juvenile Hall for a month or so, changed schools and districts, had to do more work, and still graduated on time. Another has been struggling with addiction and had to deal with terminating an unwanted pregnancy. She also may have been sexually assaulted recently. And she graduated on time despite all the stress that could've sidetracked her!
Another was running away, harming herself (cutting, trying to kill herself), and now is a positive role model, a leader, does foster youth advocacy, finished both semesters of her senior year with 4.0s, is pretty much the superstar of our campus, and gave a speech at the graduation thanking everyone. She mentioned me by name and title, then said that I'm awesome. I totally started crying.
There were over 100 people at the graduation for the 6 graduates. They all had so many people around them showing their love and support. It was an amazing, amazing day at work, with so much positivity around. I'm seriously so proud of all my kids. I had to share my awesome moments.
It depends on how bad the accident is, but I'd probably need someone to calm me down really quick before I could call my insurance. I might call them first, not sure. I've been told to only call the cops for injury accidents or accidents on the freeway.
I forgot My Days. It's a great app for tracking your period and you can create a widget that gives you a countdown to your next start date. You can also use it for charting, I think, but I just use it for period tracking.
...You were in a car accident? H, and if he wasn't available, my college roommate. Then AAA to begin the claims process.
...The zombie apocalypse was starting? H
...You broke down on the highway? AAA, then H to notify him.
...You found out your favorite band was coming to town? A couple of my friends who are just as into Bon Jovi as I am.
...You needed directions and had no GPS? It would depend on where I was. LA, my dad. OC, either my mom or dad. SD, either H or a friend who works in whatever area I'm lost in.
...Your deepest, darkest secret was about to be exposed? BFF
I have a bunch of relaxation apps. The "____ by Andrew Johnson" ones. I think I have relax, deep sleep, power nap/energy boost, and build confidence. I also have White Noise, which had tips of great sounds. I use it for myself as well as in my groups. I also use Google Play Music and things like Evernote.
My favorite fun apps, currently, are sudoku, cribbage, and draw something. Overall my phone's pretty boring, though.
I wish I'd taken a year off between high school and college, or taken a whole year off in college. I was so burnt out that I put in the minimum effort, which made it difficult to pursue a graduate degree and made the process take longer. However, if it would mean not marrying my husband, I wouldn't have changed a thing. Besides, all my struggles have helped me be who I am today and help me empathize with my clients.
Sort of the opposite of bimbi, I wish I could figure out a specific specialty. I feel like I'm just a "general therapist" and am wondering how on earth I'll market myself once I get into private practice. I wish my Master's program had focused on us developing specialties. Maybe that's what the PsyD I'm not sure I want would be good for?
I was in a relationship with DH.before I turned 21, so there were no club hookups. I think the dumbest guy-related thing I did was spend the night at a frat house. The guy whose room I stayed in let me have the bed while he slept on the couch in his room. In hindsight, I'm probably pretty lucky I was left alone.
I can't imagine how you could've handled yourself and that situation better. That is scary and that guy's a total creeper. I'm also interested in how Match responds.
orly, why the fuck do you keep arguing this? Please kindly fuck off out of this thread, as you're probably only adding to OP's agita. And really, nobody gives a shit about arguing laws re: fault in this kind of thread.
Tarpon, I'm so sorry you had to witness that. I hope they were able to do something for that poor little yorkie.
My understanding is that it's a manufactured drug containing synthetic THC, which is then sprayed on dried plant material and sold as incense and labeled not for human consumption. It contains more than just the synthetic THC, but because it's cooked up, there's no way to know for sure what else is in it.
Main issues seem to be: raising blood pressure and heart rate, potentially triggering a psychotic episode (because it's synthetic THC, it's apparently more potent), and some people have died after using spice. I think maybe seizures are another risk.
I also lecture my clients about Spice. I've been known to tell them, off the record of course, that I'd rather the just fucking smoked pit instead of smoking spice.
Luckily the boys all seem to think bath salts are ridiculous. They'll all smoke spice when they can't get marijuana, though.
I haven't read Fast Women or Bet Me in a long time, I think it's time to pull them off the shelf! I bought Bet Me in hardcover and I LOVE the cover. It made me want to get all kinds of crazy, impractical shoes.
Why do you insist on making your problems everyone else's problems, while simultaneously refusing to do a damn thing about them or to help yourself, and furthermore do you even realize you do this?
Secondary question: Do you see the damage this does to your relationships with others?
