yes to the list making! I'm off to do a vacation spreadsheet RIGHT NOW!

hey, thanks! very kind of you to say that :)

Self care has become a big priority in my life since getting sober. Things I do on a semi-regular basis that I really enjoy/habits I've formed that bring me peace:

it's called vita surgical, they're right off the Foggy Bottom metro station. http://www.vitasurgical.com/botox-dc/ -

$199 and worth every penny.

Seconded! I consider myself “fit” because I can run 7 miles without stopping, but I am by no means “ripped.” If I flex my bicep or my quad you can see the definition, but they’re definitely buried under a layer of skin and fat and whatever else bodies are made up of.

not at all. a girl I went to grad school with, who is a former miss DC, was posting about this just this morning, because one of her friends is going to be a cast member. not sure if it's this woman....but you kinda hit the nail on the head.

Teenagers and poor people....but really, just black people.

I’m picturing a reality show centered around Maggie Smith’s character from Downton Abbey.

Khloé is on the case.

Hah, thanks! I am not trying to like, CONVINCE YOU to run out and get botox, I am just trying to offer a different perspective. I firmly believe you should do whatever makes you feel good about yourself, even if others think it's "vain" or "omg injecting poison in your face whyyyy grosss"

Do you live in a city? I found my place on Yelp, no joke. And most places will offer like ‘first timer’ discounts, or random deals during holidays, or offer a steep discount if you get 2 areas - for example, the place I went to (I’m in DC) is $199 for one area and $99 for the second. OH AND they will give you a touch…

x10000000 I am in literally the same boat. we are boatmates.

I’m 31 and I got botox on my “11s” back in like....March?...because it’s something that has bothered me for YEARS and I was like, if there’s an “easy” solution that will make this NOT bother me anymore, why not? I haven’t regretted it AT ALL and am probably going to go back soon-ish for another round.

ah, so THAT explains how I got a $300 wool coat for $85 on amazon yesterday
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well, goddammit. I recently had THE WORST experience with Overstock (it would take me like 10 minutes to type it all out, it was so protracted and needlessly complicated) so this just adds to fuel to my FUUUUCK OVERSTOCK YOU WEIRDOS fire

UGH, hate to be “that guy”, but the first testimonial for Living Proof references their Perfect Hair Day line, which is totally different.

Completely anecdotal, but I was having dinner at Filomena recently and chatting to the waiter about all the celebrities he's met working there (and this guy was middle aged, so he's seen some shit), and he said, without skipping a beat, that Tom Cruise was a NIGHTMARE.

My story isn’t really SCARY, but it’s something that I can’t explain, but also brings me great comfort. I’m forever in the greys but I SHALL TELL MY STORY ANYWAY - this requires some back story as well, so bear with me:
