11:08 pm...

I want to give a Happy 12th Birthday shout out to my LS' of the Mu Xi Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Spring 1996 line! Jesus, it was like it was yesterday and I can literally remember every detail of that day. Ah...I miss that Peabody Gym and the wooden floors!!
I have this quad from MAC Sweetie Cakes from almost two years ago. I got it at the The Cosmetics Outlet at the Prime Outlets in Gaffney( must go there soon). And I didn't know how to work it...but I found a cool tutorial on You Tube for just this quad that gave me some great ideas.

6 Random Things About Me...

Thank you Kia for tagging a chick on this. Now I got to think of something about myself. Maybe I should go a fix a cup of Starbucks Espresso Roast to concentrate....:)


-I have never had a Mickey D's Big Mac. That "special sauce" scares me.

-I almost got kicked out of college my LAST semester for "disorderly conduct". Subsequently, that wasn't the only time I was threated to be kicked out. I was slightly "rowdy". My motto was "All because my face is cute and my hair is fly doesn't mean I won't fight you!" But I'm sooooo much calmer now sans Jose Cuervo and other poisons... If you were at the WU between 1995-2000, you knew who I was!

-I haven't gained or lost any weight in 3 years. It's blessing and curse.

-I'm my mother's only child. And she was her mother's only child.

-I don't own a suit and you won't catch in one. I don't like two matching pieces like that.

-Dey Know by Shawty Lo is one of my ringtones. I think everybody I work with got that ringtone too! lol!

- Makeup Related...I don't like lip balm. It's too greasy, eh.

Tagging....Miss Kim, Micki, Mischo, and Nemesis

You gon' sign it!!

"You gon' sign it!" is what a former co-worker I had at "HellSouth" said to her fiance before they got married. She told him he WAS going sign that Pre-Nup. She should have worn that new Essie polish in No Pre-Nup, because that's what she told other folks she didn't do and forgot she told me that she made him sign one. Crazy broad. I miss her....

Check out the new Essie Bridal Collection. It's pretty even if you are not getting hitched anytime soon.:)

Super Rave!: L'Oreal Infallible Never Fail Lip Gloss

Jesus be CVS Extra Bucks!! Yes, cousins, the CVS Extra Bucks are a printing and yours truly got 10.50 worth to spend. You know that damn coupon was burning hole in my vintage Aigner wallet!!! And how fitting that is it their "Semi Annual Beauty Sale" with BOGOs and 50% offs all over the spot!

Anyway, I got two of the L'Oreal Infallible Never Fail Lip Gloss in Dulce De Leche and Blush. The name "Infallible" makes me think of my friend and old roommate Alexandria who when she crossed Delta her line name was "Insoluble" which fit her to a tee!

Well, to the point...they go on very light. I put one about two coats. Then it dried in the consistency of a MAC lipglass, kinda sticky. And it stayed on pretty long like four hours, the average of a regular lipgloss. So they may want to cut that "6hr" lasting power out. And I love my colors. I think I'll get two more before the sale ends.

Swatches!!!

Goodies from the "Sal"

My Momma and I call the Salvation Army Store "Da Sal". She loves this one that's in town but I never find anything in it. I decided to stop in this morning and found several goodies by surprise....

Check out these vintage belts. My mom used to wear these with simple sheath dresses and wooden jewelry and 'twister' bead necklaces. As a child, I wanted to dress like my Momma!

Electric Blue flats with little heel. Great condition, too.
Magazines old and new. I love Black Enterprise and Momma gets in the mail but she always takes it to work and I never get to see it! Those Cuisine mags are from 1984!!! And I got a another Eric Carle book for the boys and a James Frey book.
The ultimate find: The NY Times Women's Fashion Magazine for Spring 2008. Why the a big find for me? First, the Times isn't even sold in this town and I love those special edition magazines that come in the NYT. I have the Womens' and Mens' 2005, 2006 and a Beauty Edition from 2005.
