4/13 randoms

[05heel]

I got my Tarte order from the 30% off sale, and I'm in love. So.much.stuff.

[raangoli]

Even though I have no business eating it, I am anxiously awaiting the post-Easter markdown of candy.

In related news, I actually worked out yesterday. I even ran (a very slow) half a mile. This was my first run in like 1.5 years!

[meshaliuknits]

Tomorrow is my favorite day all year. Good Friday: the day I have off & everyone else in my house goes about their business.

It shall be glorious!

[kicks]

I leave for Portugal and Spain tonight. I better not get any crazy patients because my ass is walking out of here right at 5. No work until 4/24!

[skwcm80]

I'm going to Cuba, y'all. Apparently I'm channeling all of my upcoming divorce emotions into international travel, but I suppose I could do worse things.

[childofhiphop]

Two days to Vegas! No kids. No giant dog. Alcohol and good food.

Unlike most random off days I am not even glancing at my work phone. I'm so done with this place. My boss even asked me last night as I was STILL HERE AT 7PM (quitting time is 4), "you're coming back tomorrow, right?" He's knows it's ridiculous foolishness but doesn't have the spine to actually be the Senior Director that he is and demand what is right.

I need a break bad.

[skwcm80]

Thanks @tooshort ! I don't leave until June, but I just came back from Ireland do I guess I'll be ok.


childofhiphop Enjoy your break. Keep that work phone off.

What did you get?

lights, camera, lashes 4-in-1 mascara
smooth operator Amazonian clay finishing powder
Amazonian clay 12-hour blush in flush 
Amazonian clay full coverage airbrush foundation
clay pot waterproof shadow liner
Rainforest of the Sea 4-in-1 setting mist
water foundation SPF 15
tarteist PRO glow highlight & contour palette
tarteist quick dry matte lip paint in bling

color splash hydrating lipstick in boardwalk

I definitely recommend the color splash lipstick in boardwalk.  It's a nice, neutral brown.

I just had a screaming fight with H over a 3 day old egg roll. I haven't eaten since 7am and thought about my leftover egg roll on the 40 min drive home from work. I get here and he fucking ate it.

I HATE SHARING FOOD I HATE THAT NOTHING IS JUST MINE ANYMORE. I HAVE MY PERIOD AND I WANTED MY FUCKING EGG ROLL. He told me I'm being ridiculous and I'm so fucking angry.

I hate when my H eats my leftovers. If I ordered and saved the food, why would you assume that I don't want to eat it? That doesn't even make sense.

Oh, and the few times he's done this, I've flipped the fuck out. You knew you married a crazy person, dude. Don't act surprised.

[redwino]

My aunt has been in the hospital since 2/27 and she's finally coming home today. I cried at work when my mom told me. I'll be home tomorrow and can't wait to see her. I had a mini praise break in my office.

05heel I'm so jealous of your haul. I rarely buy make up anymore because my child sucks up all my extra money and free time. I've had an ULTA gift card burning in my pocket since Christmas but can't find the time to go to the store and play. I don't want to go if I can't wander aimlessly for an hour.

I'm glad your aunt is coming home!

I hear you on the makeup thing. I rarely buy this much at once either. The 30% was just too good to pass up.

I flipped out. And cried angry tears.

"DONT EVER WONDER AGAIN WHY I HIDE FOOD IN MY CAR!"

Preach.

As I look at my CVS stash snack bag in my car. If it were in the house, everyone else would help themselves to my snacks before I ever got one bite.

[05heel]

Why wasn't I aware of Twix Eggs before now? Dear God, those things are good. I'm going back out to buy every last one I can get my hands on.

[brandnewday]

I got into a fight with H too, @natariru . Ours wasn't food related, but dammit it was frustrating.

Also 05heel , I quoted to ask what you hauled. That list is impressive. I've been trying to be frugal and use all the makeup that I have. I have a lot of eye shadow and even more lip products (cough cough capscapscaps ).

I just got that Sephora 15% off coupon and I'm resisting the devil because we have some trips coming up that we're saving for.

Today I was supposed to go eat chicken and waffles at one of my favorite places and BECAUSE MY SO HAS THE MEMORY OF A GOD DAMN GOLDFISH I was not able to partake. I've been posting passive aggressive memes on his FB page all day.

I am feeling physical rage for you.

I definitely recommend the color splash lipstick in boardwalk.  It's a nice, neutral brown. 

This is like a foreign language. I am so makeup challenged.

OMG.  NO.  Listen.  Let us help you.  Makeup is so much goddamn fun.

I finally bought some tinted moisturizer. I only use it on special occasions or when I think I look particularly bad/tired. I know it is not something I am going to do on a regular morning because I wake up too damn early. I own mascara that I use a few times a month. That is as far as I have gotten with makeup. I do have an assortment of lip balm though.

this won't do! I'll put in a plug for Tarte products. They have a great color range and are easy to use. The packaging is great too.

The only thing I'm not sure about is the contour palette. Ain't nobody got time for that most days, but it's gotten rave reviews.

Your assignment is to go to the MAC counter and ask for some lip glass and a neutral lip liner. You'll look amazing.

....girl.  Ok.  Lipsticks.  That's an easy way to add a pop of color if you are not makeup inclined.  Do you have a pic of yourself?

Ohh my husband did buy me some lip gloss? or something. It has color. I use that sometimes. 

[05heel]

Well, your're adorable. That twist out is poppin'!

[starlily]

I actually want to go to the gym tomorrow, for the first time in years. I've worked out in the meantime, but I have this urge to hop on an elliptical or rowing machine.

I don't know what's wrong with me.

Damn woman, you have great skin. OK so....I feel like you would look good in bright colors for lips, but not pale/pastels. One of my favorite fushias is Vice lipstick in Firebird by Urban Decay....I think you'd look great in that. How do you feel about reds?

Thank you. You too 05heel. I am not opposed to anything. My lack of wearing makeup is sensitive skin and sheer laziness. Is that something I can buy online? That is my biggest barrier, I find makeup store intimidating. And department stores. I like small boutique type places.
