@patelovingvegetarian: Well, apparently everyone here just washes her face with soap and water and is out the door. Me, I like my moisturizer, with sunscreen. And I use an undereye cream morning and night. It keeps that area soft - and I do notice a difference in how it feels if I run out or am somewhere overnight…

Okay. But only if I can put the face of Johnny Depp or Anna Torv over O'Donnell's.

Can I be the token, sassy white friend? Please please please? I've been practicing my witty one-liners!

I didn't consider it age-phobic when I told my teenage daughter to start taking care of her skin immediately.

Am I the only one who really hopes she actually does run in 2012? I mean, can you imagine the fun and hijinks that would ensue?

That reminds me.....I brought potato salad to the wake and didn't get my Tupperware back. I knew I should have used a disposable container.

@Ima B. Me: 30 + freaking replies because I disagreed about the use of the word Mormon, and still no star.

@Norton: Christianity.

@Pierce Nichols: I'm familiar with my church history, thanks.

@LongBoarderLC: Christianity is a big umbrella that covers a lot of sects, Protestant and Catholic. But the polygamists aren't Mormon any more than Lutherans are Catholic, despite the similarities.

@Plate2.18: It's taking the easy way out, using a word people recognize even when it's wrong, and when the author knows it's wrong.

Your asterisk isn't good enough. Those women are not Mormons, and by referring to them as such you're perpetuating a stereotype that the LDS church has long tried very hard to combat. Rephrase that sentence, removing the word and the stereotype.

@KatScratchFever: I keep making excuses, too. I'm a natural redhead - my eyebrows are invisible, my lashes are long but invisible, my skin would be shiny all day without powder, without a little bit of blush I look like I just arose from a coffin . . .

I have to admit, the minute I thought, "Oh, I can do that!" I had a moment of panic. Seriously - heart racing, shallow breaths panic.

@Ruby_de_la_Booby: hahahahaha

Of course Jennifer Grey was the best. I didn't even see the show and I know the Ghost of Patrick Swayze was on stage with her.

Stay away from my vodka and cranberry juice, no matter what color it is. ::insert mean look here::

Well, you can't go wrong with gold lamé, cigarettes and . . . . house shoes?

@smmo: I thought the same thing. My son is 23, and this kid looks like all of his other friends.

Several years ago - as in the late 70s - it was for some unknowable reason the fashion in my extended family for my aunts and uncles to get each other gag gifts for Christmas. My mom was one of ten kids, and they all had kids so we drew names instead of buying everyone a gift.
