    So Cute Your Face Will Fall Off

    If a unicorn mated with a kitten and they had a litter full of world peace and glitter, it still wouldn't be cuter than this video:

    Lime Crime Make-up: Speaking Out Against Defamatory Rumors

    Remember when I reviewed my purchase from Lime Crime?  Well, I still love it, BUT, it seems there are some haters on the interwebz who are saying some not-so-nice things about Ms. Doe Deere herself. 

    That'll learn you to mess with spunky Russians.

    She's posted a videoon her website answering each and every accusation it seems the blogosphere has thrown at her.  She's asked those of us who have purchased from Lime Crime to link back to her video so she can clear the air about her products and her business practices.  I think the only thing that could make the video better is her flipping the bird to the world at large, but I suppose she's a classier lady than that.

    So check out her video and let's support another hard-working blogger and businesswoman!

    Sometimes I feel like this...

    Zombie Halloween, 2009

    TNR, wigged, semi-clothed, second from right

    I don't so much crave human flesh as I feel a little bit like the undead.  At least zombies get to be hyper-focused.  I just get to feel like I spread myself too thin...like a bit of tasty brain on a cracker.   Er...what? 

    I need a vacation, STAT.

    Pretty Woman: Fashion Edition

    I remember when this movie came out, mostly because the Christian community was like, "It's a movie about a HOOKER."  Also, I think there was a bit of an uproar over the piano scene...

    Dating Horror Stories: The Demanda

    Here's a truly awkward one from The Demanda:

    I suppose in the grand scheme of things it's not a horrible story, but at the time I wanted to crawl in the floor and die.
     
    I had just broken up with my boyfriend of two years days before, pretty much to officially date my best guy friend I had. Ex didn't really know this. Ex and I decided to do the "Let's Stay Friends" thing, so he called me up and asked if I wanted to hang out with him...
