Called my dad. He barely remembered my package arriving. Mom is too...deaf to even try to talk to. No card or call from them. It shouldn’thurt my husband says. It does.

This is my mother’s favorite perfume to this day. I hate the smell of the stuff. I also don’t care for Shalimar, which was her second favorite. Both of them were just...always around. The smell was kind of pervasive. Especially when she could get the Emeraude powder. That crap got everywhere.

All that teaser managed to do was make me want to go back to Snoqualmie and The Salish Lodge. Dammit, I can practically taste the pie from Twedes!

Well, at least I know who Paul Blackthorne is. That girl? Not so much.

Man, Skeletor has the best parts of that.

I’m allergic to aloe, so the whole line was a no-go for me, since it’s basically ALOE IN A JAR. I guess I should probably be glad now.

Anything and everything She-Ra. The year I got Crystal Castle was AWESOME.

I think my mom felt so out of control most of the time (she had a lot of anxiety, and had trouble with dreams v. reality for example) that she exerted control in the one place she could - over me.... Once I realized that was what was going on, it was a lot easier to deal with.

She had some mental illness issues that were diagnosed/untreated.

I have been interested in makeup since...well, probably since before I can actually remember. I don’t remember being crazy about Tinkerbelle, but what I remember most was the Barbie makeup that came out in the 80s. It was real makeup, and I wanted it. Badly. My aunt and uncle bought me every item they made, in every…

I believe this is the consequence of giving every child a trophy just for showing up.

I would like the coffin shelves and the black wine glasses, please (I already own Twin Peaks and my husband might kill me if I bring home another lipstick).

BCO is the best part of my Monday, and while I will miss you on the Jez Network, I am prepared to follow you anywhere.

My mom is actually mentally ill, and everything got much, much worse when she hit menopause. :/

I think I was maybe seventeen or eighteen when this happened. My weight never went above around 100 pounds until I was in my thirties (I was always small). I woke up one morning itching like the devil on one of my legs, so of course I ran to Daddy to diagnose the problem. “Daddy! Is there something on my leg? It…

This makes me very sad. I loved Millihelen.

My husband got it for me a while ago on disc. I think it 's are him how much dialogue I can quote verbatim.

This made me immediately think of Steel Magnolias:

I used to get hit on BY delivery drivers - three different ones. Two of them were much older than me (and one was married, I found out). The one guy made me so uncomfortable I refused to answer the door when my parents ordered pizza. Another decided that it would be a great idea to leave me a note (written on the…

I also have to get up multiple times per night (IC for the win?) but my side of the bed is oddly the farthest from the door. I have to make sure I clear a path of cat toys before we turn out the lights...
