I can't be bothered to worry about my purse that much. I either hide it somewhere weird (behind monitors or speakers are good) or just throw it on the ground.

Sing it, sister! ;)

I think vanity is rooted more in insecurity than in thinking you're hot shit. I get caught all the time fixing my hair or putting on makeup, but people don't realize I'm really doing THEM a service.

I live in Austin and hate bras, too! Let's be friends! :)

Ha ha, I love that you called us Philistines! It's my favorite insult. :)

That second to last sentence needs an edit:

He actually is a really nice guy. He just says exactly what he thinks without much of a filter, like most of the people I know. I dealt with him and his production crew recently for an event for work and both were incredibly accommodating and cordial. Not a lot of bullshit with them which is OK by me.

Me, too, and I wish I had my mom's Bs. The grass is always greener!

I don't understand the tricking kids with "ice cream" smoothies thing? Wouldn't you rather that they know that fruits and vegetables taste yummy in and out of smoothies if prepared correctly? Isn't tricking kids into eating right just setting them up for failure?

God, I hope that's true!

Exactly. Dick move, Dr. Drew. My ideal body is way shorter and way rounder than Angelina, but I sure think she's beautiful all the same.

I think small breasts are awesome. They look great in clothes and are totally cute. Mine are a little bigger than I'd like, but well, I like mine, too. :)

Also, try Commando's Dig-free tights. I passed a shop window selling these in my town and bought all three colors, and they're awesome. I was a Wolford devotee until I found these. And they're cheaper. Still like my old Wolford's but these are smooth and comfy every time!

Hahaha...no. The circles are the same size, it's just huge so that an entire party of not drunk, non-caffeinated, but I'm sure extremely horny kids can all play at once.

Also, I know for a fact that BYU owns (or owned at one time) a GIANT oversized Twister game, because we borrowed it for a party when I worked at Sundance summer labs.

I wear an outfit like that every day pretty much when it's chilly. She looks cute. Thank God I don't go to BYU!

Not yet, but I surely will (hearted). Carmine (boiled cochineals) grosses me out, too. So difficult to find efficacious products that don't use it. Thanks for the tip!

I'm pretty aware of the deviousness of marketing something as natural, so I check ingredients religiously and this one is actually pretty good. What I'm worried about is that even extremely pure makeup brands use minerals for tinting. Check this out: [www.honeybeegardens.com] Ingredients: canola oil, ricinus communis…

I wonder if my hippie brand from the food co-op is potentially a source? It's Honeybee Gardens Romance.

As horrifically cruel as this story is, all I can think is that that dog probably never willingly got into a crate again. Talk about turning positive reinforcement crate training into shit...
