Is that a tear I see?

I was standing facing a VERY large window. The dress is black, the boots, sweater and leggings are various grays.
Dress Lands' End 2010 I picked it up at a Sears but it looks like they have only 10 petites available online.
Boots Target 2010
Sweater Target 2007?
Tank H&M
Belt Target 2008
Leggings Gap 2008





I am loving my new makeup routine. When I was in NYC in October I was looking for a new foundation and a makeup artist at MAC said I shouldn't ever use foundation with my skintone because 1. I have freckles 2. Most companies don't make one to match 3.I honestly didn't need it. He is right. He said the trick to LOOK like you have flawless skin (because I DON'T at all) is to use a good heavy concealer with a VERY tiny brush. That way you can cover it perfectly and it looks more natural. Before I was using at least dime sized areas of concealer on every spot thinking I had to blend it with at least half an inch around it. I have a bunch of ahem hate this word... pimples and I did the technique he showed me this morning and my skin APPEARS clear. I am so happy. He said use a little mineralize powder to set it and that was all I needed! (I don't like a full face powder. I think it makes people look older)

Are you a sap?
I wasn't for a very long time, basically all my life. I didn't get weepy at girlie movies. I didn't coo at cute babies and talk all goofy. I was more likely to roll my eyes and laugh at something overly sappy. I wasn't a teary person. I am not a crier at all (That really hasn't changed. Crying is a sign of weakness in my family. It just isn't done. We are more arms crossed tight lipped stance people. By family I mean parents and grandparents.)  I still think of myself overall as not sappy but MAN oh man I am slowly turning into one! Kimberly of Fab Finds posted a link to the Glee wedding dance and I got a little chocked up. I didn't cry but I felt it in my chest. I watched it when it was on and even then same thing! Maybe I am turning into less of a hard ass as I get older? No one is in my family is sappy so I know  why I am not naturally. Having kittens kinda broke me a little. I used to think pets were interesting.... if they were someone else's. I never had any. I just had chickens. Daisyboo got me talking baby talk and saying things I never dreamed I would. Once Waffle came along it got worse because she was a tiny kitten and OMGSHEWASSOCUTELITTLEFUZZYWUZZY. Eventually will I be the one who cries at telephone commercials?
