I know that I am a bad person.

I was just thinking to myself, hmm I need to post as I haven't blogged since last Wednesday. Wait, let me check out K's blog first--ah, hate mail in the first sentence. Lovely. Boring? Perhaps, but at least I can put links in my shizz like a CHAMP!

ALL WEEKEND I kept saying to myself, clean the house El, because it is NASTY and filthy and is grossing me out. And ALL WEEKEND I kept procrastinating and lounging about, almost in awe of the new lows of laziness that I didn't know I was capable of. Yesterday I left the house ONCE to return vids and buy vegetables for dinner. I am convinced that my remarkable levels of lethargy are due to the fact that I have eaten very few veg over the last week. Sure enough, I had spinach last night, and this morning did a load of laundry while I was getting ready for work. Well, it's a start. This weekend I am going to Chicago, so I MUST MUST MUST make some more progress this week. Here and now, I will resolve in print to do one thing each night this week (Mon-Thurs) to better my home environment. I already feel better.

I have an amazing beauty routine. The cornerstone of it consists of smearing my index finger in some brown eyeshadow while I am waiting at one of the 900 red lights, slapping it over one, maybe both, eyelids before racing on to the next red light. Then it's mascara time, very tricky to do as I must look in the rearview as well as peripherally keep tabs on the light, all the while waving a potentially lethal stick near my eyeball. It is not possible to do both sets of lashes at one light. Never happens. So, with one set left to go, I barrel on down to the next light. I always feel like Malcolm McDowell from A Clockwork Orange with only one set of lashes lashed. Like if I got into a wreck, all the people standing around my prone, lifeless body would have nothing better to talk about than, "Why does she only have one side mascara'ed?" Of course not! There would be too much blood. Ha Ha!

On a psuedo-related note, I test-drove one of these this weekend. It was nice. I think it will be mine. Soon.
